Today was my second day of school. But here is a picture of my room and my first day of school. I look like a dork!! haha (but i had to take one for chelsea... TRADITION!) haha
but school... ok well i have a gorgeous teacher for german, and she is so nice. She acctually did some teaching in the US at Mount Union College (small world!) but there are only three other students in my class, one of which is from Mexico! He is have a really hard time even though he knows english very well, its difficult. We learn for about 90 minutes, have a half hour break and then another hour after that. it goes by really quick because everything is so new. The language is weird for me, not because it is hard, but my French keeps popping up, and French and german are similar but very different. but we have class m-thursday and then big tests on fridays at 8 am!!! can you beileve that! hahah it should be a challenge. i havent gotten lost yet (but it is really small town too get lost in) the school used to be an old miliary base, and here is a few pictures of it... (really ugly i know)..
But then i am also taking a cultural anthropology class... which i am not sure if i will stay in.. its not going to be hard, maybe even a little fun. but i dont know if i want to do the work because it counts towards absolutely nothing. so we shall see.
last night our internet was down for a while, and my flat mates (by the way its kathrine is not kirsten i made an error on the last post! duh! kirsten is whom i took her room... while she is in norway) my flatmates and i tried many times to fix it... and we called and uhh it took us a long time. We have alot of consturction around our flat (they are re building this bridge) and we thought maybe that happened and blah. then finally we got it, by turning ON and OFF again. go figure. haha so easy.... but then we celebrated... with homemade schaaps.
Julia is on the left and Kathrine is in the middle. That is also our kicthen...
PS i will be going to Hamburg this weekend for a fun trip (it is free for us students and only a half hour away!) and then also i will be getting my hair cut soon-- blah it is soo long!
tschus!

Hey Son! Havent talked to ya in a while, but I just read your email and thought I should leave a message. So here it is.
School is back in full gear now after a week or so break whilst our team won the National Championship, which was super duper exciting.
My Bible Study met for the first time this week as well, and it should be a great semester with that. I'm really looking forward to the ways God will use me to teach them! And them me!
Its looking like I may be goin back to the Pass this summer, which is awesome, being that I love that place! Would also give me a chance to see more of Sarah, which is awesome as well.
Anyways, good luck with learning German, and hopefully ill hear more from ya soon.
I dont know if you have it, by i've got an LJ, just another avenue for me to waste time...
