“As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn’t supposed to ever let us down, probably will. You’ll have your heart broken and you’ll break others’ hearts. You’ll fight with your best friend or maybe even fall in love with them, and you’ll cry because time is flying by. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, forgive freely, and love like you’ve never been hurt. Life comes with no guarantees, no time outs, no second chances. you just have to live life to the fullest, tell someone what they mean to you and tell someone off, speak out, dance in the pouring rain, hold someone’s hand, comfort a friend, fall asleep watching the sun come up, stay up late, be a flirt, and smile until your face hurts. Don’t be afraid to take chances or fall in love and most of all, live in the moment because every second you spend angry or upset is a second of happiness you can never get back.” - Anonymous

My 3-day weekend

Finally I am wirting about my weekend in Texas and what happened afterwards.
Thursday we left directly after school, because our flight was supposed to be at 5 something. Then we arrived at the airport and Schwoops..... 7:10!!! great. So we could wait for like 3 hours. I am used to it, because my family and I always have to wait 3 hours. The flight was okay. I slept most of it, because i was really tired.
Friday we stood up at 6 o'clock to go to Baylor. Its a college in Texas. We went to Starbucks and afterwards I slept in the car for the whole ride(1 hour) I thought caffine makes you stay up, but I don't think it works on me. The college visit was OK. We got a free Shirt so i was happy :D After that we went to lunch and then we went to another college. The one where my host parents went. It was really pretty and the guy , who showed us the campus looked a little bit like ashton kutcher. Oh and if you are a girl and you dont want to go to your dorm at night alone. you can call someone and they send you a guy, who picks you up. Isn't that great? I wanna go there!!! Haha..... just kidding.
Saturday we could sleep in...Yippiieee. Then we went shopping and I got a top. Afterwards we went to Comwtown. Thats a original cowboy city. But the bad thing was that it was raining like hell. and thunderstorm and wind and......idk everything. So we just went to a restaurant and ate lunch. Then we left again. At night we went to the TCU(the good college) football game. It was awesome. I was screaming and cheering the whole time and the people in front of me wanted to kill me (they were for the different team). They left 20 min earlier :D We won high. I don't know the score but it was good.
Sunday we went out for breakfast and I had german pancakes with aplles in it. It was good but very much. Then we left Texas. :(
When we arrived home we made plans with Jake. My host sister Jake and I went to Culvers (its like mcdonalds) together and Jake and Kathleen got married. I have a little crush on Jake...so I was kind of jealous, although I knew it was just for fun and that my host sister likes someone else. I was still a little upset.
So today in German one guy thought Jake and I were dating, because we're really good friends and maybe a little flirty but thats okay. So Jake told me that and I was laughing and he was like. I mean I like you, because you are from Germany and not from America. And I was like okay :D
That reminds me on something that my sociology teacher said today. We did some online personality tests yersterday and I got the same personality as 9 other kids in my class. And my teacher was like: See Alex is from Germany and she still has kind of the same personaity. I was like OKay.... Weird!!!!
Okay yeah. Friday kathleen, her friend dillon, jake and I are hanging out together the whole day. We are going ice skating and i will see how i feel afterwards about jake. I really really like him.

Weekend!

Okay so..... Friday my host sisters cousins came and I really like them because they have a good sense of humor ( sarcasm :D) Yeah...I went to bed really early, because the next day we went on a college visit in Wisconsin. The campus was reallly nice, but it just had 2600 students and thats just a little bigger than PR...so my host sister doesn't wanna go there. Then we went home and I slept because I was really realy tired! In the evening we went to Kathleens friend house and made a giant leaf pile....and then we jumped in it. It was awesome!! The best thing ever!
Sunday!!! Really funny day. So we wanted to go to my friends, Jake, hockey game, but then we noticed, that he doesn't play for our school. Ups!! We wantedto creep on him but as you can think. It didn't work. So I told him everything and he was realy amused. I asked him if he would come to the game, still..although hes not playing and he said yes. So we went to the hockey game and after one half, we went to culvers. Its an ice cream/ fast food thing :D It was really funny and Jake is the funniest and creepist guy ever! we had soo much fun.
So all in all a very good weekend!

Busy...but long weekend

Yesterday I had a sleepover with my hostsister at her friends house and I ate and drank so much soda, that I almost threw up. Not good! But it was nice. We had a bonfire and it was actually really nice outside. Not too cold and not too hot.
Today I am having another sleepover, but this time alone, without my hostsister. My friend from South has a birthday party with a sleepover and I hope it will be funny. Today I also bought a scrapbook and all the stuff you need to do one. I should start soon, because as you can think, I am already behind :) But yeah... I am way too lazy.
Tomorrow i am hanging out with the funniest guys I met here. I am soo excited and its going to be sooo funny. I have to halp them with their German video Project and I think that will be good. I watched the Video Project from last year and they are hilarious. Sooo damn funny!
Okay...sooo on Monday I am maybe going to Chicago with my hostsister and her guyfriend, but maybe not, because my host sister has to do her German video project. We have to see.
Soo...I am really glad we have no school tomorrow and Germany: I am soo jealous!!! I want holidays!

STUPID!!!!

I am STUPID!!!! I hate me!!!

Important!!!

Okat das ist jetzt in Deutsch, weil.... keine ahnung
Also.... zu meinem letzten Post "Ugh". Es ist nicht so, dass ich hier fuer immer bleiben moechte, ohne jeweils wieder meine Freunde in Deutschland zu sehen. Im gegenteil. Ich stelle mir jeden Tag vor wie cool es waere wenn sie hier waeren. Leider sind sie es nicht und ich denke oft darueber nach und bin auch oft traurig, dass ich das hier alles ohne sie erlebe, aber ich geniesse meine Zeit hier auch. Es tut mir leid, wenn es so rueberkam, als wuerde ich mich nicht um meine Freunde in Deutschland kuemmern. Ich hoffe, dass alle die, die sich verletzt fuehlten, nicht mehr verletzt sind, denn ich wollte wirklich niemanden verletzen. Es tut mir soo unendlich leid. Wirklich. Ich habe nicht gemerkt, wie verletzend dieser Post war.

Haunted House!

Okat...so Jake told me that I have to go to a haunted house and then his friend, who is also in my German class suggested that they could take me to one. Actually I think it would be really much fun, but I am kind of scard. Not because of the haunted house, but of Jake and Chris :D So maybe I am going with them and maybe not. But I am absolutely going to a corn maze on Halloween with Kathleen, Ben Johnson, Kurtis and Alexandra...WUHUU!!!

I DON'T WANT TO GO BACK TO GERMANY!!!!!
I love all the people here and it may be hard to read for my friends, but i want to stay hear!!!
I feel so depressed right now. I mean....I am here for 2 months now and I want to stay. What do I want, when the year is over? I'm stting here right now...crying, because I'm not looking forward to the end of my high school year.
I found sooo many new friends, and I love them sooo much.
Today was the oktoberfest of my school and I just realized how much I like them. I love my host sister and everyone I know here. I really dont want to go back.
But no one knows what happens in the next 8 months.

Good Day.

Soo...yesterday was the Homecoming parade and the Homecoming game.
The parade was funny....the exchange student had there own Truck and we decorated it with some posters. And Jake told me whiy she is soo creepy to me. So... creeping is a thing that every American does to foreignern :D Great! Then he said indirect that I'm not cool and I didn't talk to him for about 15 min. Then I was good with him again, because he didn't creep on me for these 15 min ;) I went out of candy after the first 10 min of the parade so the kids at the street looked at me with big eyes and I just said: I'm out of candy...sorry! I felt sooo bad. I was a giant German flag, because I wore a black shirt and then a part of a red shirt and then a part of a yellow shirt. Also I wore black short, red tights and the sleeves of a yellow shirt around my legs :D It was sooo funny and Frau Nagel said that I'm the exchange student with the most spirit ever.....YES!!! xD
After the parade I went to Panarellis(??) with Ben Johnson, Kurtis and Alexandra. They are soooo funny. Ben Johnson had the night before a 40 min conversation with his mom about numbers. About the colors of numbers and the characterisation. OKAY!!! Sounds weird! I really wanna hang out with those 3 more often. it was sooo much fun.
Then there was the Football game. I stood with Partick and his friends....of course :D And he asked me if I wanna go to Lunch with him and his friends. My host family just lets me go when my host sister can come too. I have to call him...still.
Today is the Homecoming dance....I am soooooo excited!!!! Ahhh!!!!
