Day 5 and 6 (8-4-09, 8-5-09)

So yesterday was kind of a laid back day, which was nice with all of the running around we've done in the past few days. Wilfried is in Austria for a few days so Zanete and I went into Syke and dropped off some recording stuff we rented to record the concert for my Rotary counselor, Carin Lavine. Who, I might add, is a world famous flute player (At least I think that's what they said. hha).

After that we went by my school to finish some paperwork and meet some people, who I forgot their names by now. (Sorry, I have a bad memory!) The school is huge. It's weird to think I'm starting there tomorrow. It's going to be a great experience though. It's weird though, I found out that I am going to have 3 of my classes taught in English. I emailed the KCHS councelors about it to see if I can get credits for them back home. That way senior year will be a little bit easier on me. I also found out that I had to make a poster describing where I'm from and about me and stuff to put on the wall so people know me. I'm kind of stoked about it. ART PROJECT!!! =D

After the school then we went to the bank and went home.

By the time we got home, Jan had come home from camp. We ate lunch and then we went on a bike ride. We went to the school because it is only 10 km away. ONLY 10km. bleh. Don't they know that I am out of shape?!?!? haha. I didn't complane though. Everything here can be turned into a good experience. Though I must say, I rode Madaras bike. It's one of those that if you peddle backwards it breaks.... I forgot about that when I was going up a steep hill. XD

OH! And during lunch (I have to add this) my host brother was all 'Do you have *blah blah blah* in Canada???' and I was all .... 'uhm, I've never been to Canada' and he's all 'Oh I thought that Alaska was apart of Canada' 'No, it's not....' Hahaha, Jans great. That's why rotary youth exchange is here, TO SHARE THE TRUTH! haha. Jan's a reallt good kid. I'm glad he's my host brother. =]

NOW TODAY ON ANOTHER HAND!!!!
We got up really early. Went to pick up Yamil and his host sister and went to HEIDE PARK! (I think that's how you spell it)

We rode a bunch of rides. Including a wooden roller coaster that is in the guiness book of world records. It was SOOO HOT THOUGH OMG! And I thought that my farmers tan from the 4th of july parade was bad... I have the worst tan of my life right now and school starts tomorrow!!! I can hide it though, I'm a wiz with make up =] .

I slept in the car on the way back and so did Yamil and Jan. I was tired all day. I probably walked a bajillion miles today... and I'm not even exadurating.

I felt bad though. On one ride, this (hot) guy sat next to me and tried to talk to me, like, he kept on saying a bunch of stuff and was waiting for answers. Like, multiple times. I looked at him confused for a second and replied "Es tut mir leid. Meine deutsch ist schlekt. Ich komme aus Alaska." (and I probably spelt that wrong. hahaha.) It means, ' I'm sorry. My German is bad. I , am from Alaska". He was just like, 'oh' and turned away. Shot down by the man. And the man being language differences. I can understand some German, like, I can know what people are talking about in conversations if I pay attention hard enough, but I had no idea what he was saying. BLEH. NOTE TO SELF. LEARN GERMAN NOW SO WHEN HOT GUYS TALK TO YOU YOU DONT LOOK DUMBDUMBDUMBDUMDFjhlsjfhlaskjdfhkdsfsd.......
