So I won't write as much as I just did. Apologies.
School:
Is boring in any culture really. It is ten times worse when you don't understand about 90 something percent of it. By that point you just don't try that hard anymore. It's not worth it. So I usually just spend my time drawing or looking at a magazine. And speaking of magazine. I FOUND ALTERNATIVE PRESS! I looked FOREVER and finally found it. =] I screamed in the store. People stared. I didn't care. It made my week. I really forgot how much I enjoyed drawing. Other than that though, I'm pretty much just decoration on the wall in school.
German School:
I love my german class, not so much the school though. The people in it are so much fun. We had the class 5 days a week for the past like, 5 or 6 weeks so we saw each other a lot. Now the german class is coming to an end and now we only have 2 classes per week for the next two weeks. We have already decided that we are going to have to hang out and meet in Bremen anyway. I'm there most days of the week anyway so it is nice. BTW. I LOVE BREMEN. Just thought I would point that out. =] We have so much fun just randomly walking through the city and going to our hang out spot. It's good.
England:
WAS AMAZING. I loved it. Especially Camden Town. By far my favorite place in the world. I went to Brighton, Hastings, London, Eastbourn, and Greenwich. I stood on the Prime meridian. I walked for 4+ hours on rolling England countrysides. Chased pigeons on the Brighton coast. Got to be the translate-r instead of the translate-e. I roomed with Philippine (another exchange student from Belgium/France). My Gasteltern were very nice. We only really spoke with the Lady in the house because her husband was on Ramadan so he slept most of the day. They just got married and he moved from Morocco to be with her. He speaks 6 different languages but is still learning English. It was weird speaking only in english and not trying to converse in German with them. I never realized how bad my english was getting until I went to England. hah. It's worth it though. I have videos from my trip on my Youtube account. www.youtube.com/SarayaCoburn and I have photos on my myspace account www.myspace.com/vengeance_swings_around.
The other day:
I went with one of my friends, Rosalie, to an Urban Art museum the other day. It was really good and the art was astounding. We only made it through floor number 1 of 5 until it closed because it was so good. Afterwards we went to a local concert. I do have to admit I was a little disappointed in how the concert was but it was fun nevertheless.
Other stuff:
I went to my first Rotary Orientation here. It was a lot of fun. All the rebounds and the inbounds had a sleepover that night. I was pretty tired though because I had to get off the buss from England (which was a 12 hour trip overnight) straight to Oldenburg for the Orientation. It was worth it though. Other than that I haven't been doing anything really interesting. Most things here are becoming normal so it isn't as new and noteworthy anymore. So if you have questions, please ask.
Well I have to go to a Rotary meeting. I'll try and update more later.
