Schließlich!
Hallo! Ich werde nur auf Deutsch schreiben. Vielleicht spaeter, werde ich es ubersetzen wenn ich nicht faul bin. ich denke mein Gramatik und Deutsch Setzaufbau werden scheisse sein. Ich finde es schwierig weil ich dumm bin.
Ich bin noch nicht fließend und es nerft mich!Ich versuche und ich versuche aber es geht nie besser! Ich bin hier fast 5 Monate und ich kann alles nicht sagen. Ich hasse es. Ich hoffe, wann ich weg gehe, kann ich alles verstehen und sagen.
Ich werde ueber meine Gastfamilie schreiben. Thomas und Sylvia sind meine Gasteltern. Sie koennen beide fliessend Englisch( und deutsch, natuerlich) sprechen. Sie sind sehr nett. Sie spielen viel Golf und sie sind sehr gut! Ich finde es ganz toll.
Dann kommt Theresa. Sie ist 18 und uebeltzt cool! Sie war shon in Wisconsin fuer ein Jahr. also sie kann auch fliessend Englisch sprechen. Sie nehmt mich (mir? keine ahnung) nach Partie manchmal. Ich finde es sehr cool weil sie nicht muess. Ihre Freund ist Dave. Er ist sehr nett and lustig. Hazzy ist ein grosse Affe. Er ist cool, geil und lustig! Aber trotzdem, ein grosse Affe. Hazadus!
Leo ist meinen Gastbruder und er spricht auch englisch! Aber wir sprechen nur Deutsch zusammen. Er spielt Golf and ein bisschen Basketball. Wir sind beide in zehnte klasse. Er wird nach Panama naechste Jahr fliegen.
Ich betrachte Christina und Stephanie wie meine Gastfamilie auch! Christina ist immer bei Leimbach und ich sehe sie oft. Sie kann ein bisschen English sprechen und ich finde es sehr gut! Ich sehe Steph nicht oft weil sie viel Arbeit hat aber wann ich sie sehe, Es ist immer lustig. STEPH. WIR MUSSEN DIE ARZTE IN CONZERT SEHEN. DAS WIRD UEBELTZT GEILLLLLLLL SEIN. Ja...... Steph ist auch fliessend in Englisch weil sie in Amerika fuer ein Jahr war. Sie ist in Amerika jetzt. Sie besucht ihre Gast familie. Steph, du musst mein Deutsch corrigieren bitte weil es sheisse ist! Du musst auch ein "Post" schreiben. und wann du zuruck bist, koennen wir ein Video aufnehmen! und wir konnen bis zum verlust der muttersprache...essen.
OK! Ciao Tschuss! Aufwiedersehen! Bis Dann! HAB EUCH LIEB!

"Can i open the window please?"
Sooo. I haven't written a post in a while. Sorry about that. I went back to school last wednesday and i have been back in school for almost a week and a few days. I got a few grades back the past few days and they haven't been too bad. My grades won't actually start counting until february because that is when the 2nd half of the school year starts. I have been taking tests just to get used to them though... Im averaging a 3 which is almost like a C.... it goes 1-6 like A-E... I don't think thats too bad for not understanding everything on the test.
We switched from Trig to Geometry today in Math. I was almost understanding the trig before and now im completely lost with this new stuff. I'll let you know how everything turns out.
When it comes to the language, sometimes i have good days and sometimes i have bad days. Some days ill understand (almost) everything and i feel really good and i talk to lots of people and other days i cant understand anything and i dont talk to people in school. Once again, well see how it turns out.
At the end of the month, we have another 1 week holiday but im not sure why. But im going with my host family to Austria to ski in the ALPS! I'm sooooooo excited. i love skiing and im used to doing it every weekend( even if its only at frost) and i really miss it!
I started Tenis on Tuesday. I'm pretty bad but need something to do! I havent dont any sports since i came to germany! I have also started running! I will join Track and Field in April. I'm also thinking about running a 10K in Hanover which would be great. I really want to run a marathon too but i need alot of training for it. If anybody has trained for a marathon before and wants to give me a marathon training scheudule, email me! I would really appreciate it.
For everybody that has sent me letters and packages, THANK YOU SO MUCH. I really love everything little thing that i get. I'm trying to reply to the letters with other letters but its taking time. Keep your eyes on your mail for the next few months!
Ill post some pictures in the next few days!

Videos!
A couple of other AFS'ers and I are going to be making videos about germany for everyone to see!
We're all really excited about it and we hope you are too! I will be posting a video every thursday. We're not really sure how it is going to work but it will probably have themes for each week. There will be a video every monday, tuesday, wednesday and thursday. Eventually we will have a sunday but not yet! Please let us know how you like it and what you would like to hear in it!
This is a link to where our videos will be:

Chirstmas and Pictures
Merry Christmas everyone! and happy new year. I really miss everyone this year!
Here are some pictures that i took over christmas.
Tree Decorating
In Frankfurt at Thomas's BRothers
PHILLIES
Why is the american wearing shorts?
....................
and no socks?
I haven't talked about this yet... Music...and TV.
Almost all music that germans listen to is american music! About every 5 song on the radio is a german one. It really makes learning german difficult when all you here is english all the time. There are some good german bands and they aren't all techno... For example, Die Ärzte, Seeed, and Peter Fox are all good bands. Die Ärzte meens The Doctors in english.
The majority of TV shows are english shows that have german voice overs. In the beginning, it was weird to see the mouths not matching the words but i'm used to it by now! Many movies in the movie theaters are english also.
