here again, finally!

So here i am again after a REALLY long time :)
i was very busy and just didn't have time to go online so much....

I need to catch you up on a few things..

at the end of september i went to dallas and watched the Ranger's baseball game. it was fun and we stayed the night at a hotel and went to the state fair the next day.













harry potter premier-- midnight







in october i switched my hostfamily because things didn't work out with Crystal and Jordan. i wanted to stay friends, but obviously they don't wanna have any more contact with me. C.even blocked me on facebook. a bunch of nasty stuff happened i really don't wanna bother you with.
So NOW i'm staying with the Mitchells, my host parents are Lisa and Kelly and i have three siblings, Cody is a professional baseball player, Jill is in college and Sarah is one year younger than me and goes to my school.

a week later we had spirit week (every day you dress up in school): monday was no school, twin tuesday, way back wednesday (we dyed shirts and went as hippies), nerdy(streber) thursday, and hawk spirit friday. at saturday it was our homecoming dance and i had a lot of fun! i went out to eat with my date and a bunch of friends and then to the dance. my dress was gorgeous!!!!

The Mitchells are really involved in Church so we go to church and sunday school and youth group every sunday. and to youth at Chick Fil A every tuesday and to Bible study every wednesday. but i like the way it is here better than in Germany, because the services are contemporary and it is more like a group of friends and family you look foreward to see than a group of old strangers.

at my birthday i got a huuuuge cake and i was so excited but Lisa laughed and said that it was the small size :) but i didn'thave a party or something...

halloween was fun, i dressed like a cheerleader and went to a party at a friends house.

i'm like very busy the whole time ....
omG!!

i went to the audition for our school musical (Seussical the Musical, google it!) and i got the female lead :) HSM for real!! we're practicing a lot and our premier is 12.9.10 aaaaaaaahhh

yesterday i went shopping for sarah's birthday present with Catie , it was so much fun.. we made cookies :)
and we had breakfast at ihop this morning..

I'm still alive!!

I'm sorry I didn't write earlier but I was very busy this week  and haven't had any time to post...
I'll write in English from now on cause I think that will make things easier for me.
Idon't feel sick anymore and everyone is really sweet to me.

In school it was better this week, i  even remember some more names :D My favorite class is theatre, my teacher is soo funny (she looks like the teacher of High School Musical, that's weird!!! i LIKE FASHION DESIGN; TOO. After we had to do some research about designers (i had Karl Lagerfeld :)) we finally started drawing a template. It's fun :)
AThletics is fun, too but i still think about going back to volleyball cause there are many nice girls and i think it would be fun, too!

On Thursday I made <Semmelknödel> for everyone and they loved it and  we had soo much fun!! We played a game where you put marshmallows on plates on stools and you have to drop a broomstick on the plates so the marshmallows fly up and you try to catch 'em with a cup... Soo funny!!!!

I need to get a new sim card for my cellphone cause everyone's always texting me and it's so expensive for me to text back (29 ct/sms!) . I hope I get one really quick cause my parents will kill me when they see the bill :D O.o.

Yesterday I went to my first footballgame ever and I had a good time, but our team lost terribly (48:7) It was much fun, some friends picked me up and i went with them. I've met Qyan, he's soo funny! He's black, overweight, aamerican and gay!! It was so cool!!

Today i went to a garage sale with C&J and it was kinda sorta fun ;) but sometimes boring xD
Tonight c and me will go to the movies cause j has his football friends over tonight!
FUUUN!

BUGELs forever! (google it :D)

Love!!

wochenende

am samstag haben wir es uns ganz gemütlich gemacht. eigentlich wollten wir fürmein scrapbook noch was einkaufen, aber das haben wir dann doch gelassen. lacy kam rüber und wir haben von subway essen geholt. abends sind crystal und ich zu logans rennen gegangen. der (16) fährt dirt track rennen mit nem spezialauto. zum aufwärmen bin ich mitgefahren! es war soo cool aber danach war ich voll mit matsch xD

am sonntag sind crystal und ich zu walmart einkaufen gegangen und das wars auch schon. abends hat sie dinner gekocht (pork and potatoes) und shannon hat hier gepennt weil er und seine frau sich grade scheiden lassen. es war sehr lustig und wir haben yatzhee (=kniffel) gespielt.

heute war ich wieder in der schule und es war ganz gut. ich mag taylorund shaenne aus meiner chemie klasse und carly mit dem volleyballteam. die seniors sind auch alle super nett. ich war heut wieder in athletics und wir haben gewichte gestemmt. ich hab keine muskeln, ich hab pudding in den armen!
ich glaub ich bin ein bisschen krank, ich bin dauernd müde und heb kopf und halsweh. ich hoff das wird ganz schnell wieder gut!!
heute abend war wieder gechillt und crystal hat wieder essen gemacht. es gab baked potatoes, den rest vom pork, bohnen und macaroni mit cheese. das pork war am besten, der rest war so lala.
ich hab immer noch nicht realisiert dass ich hier bin und das das hier kein traum ist.es kommt mir aber total unwirklich vor. und ich weiß nicht, ob ich schon in englisch denke weil ich irghendwie überhaupt nicht denk^^ ich rede immer drauf los und komm gar nicht dazu einen klaren gadanken zu fassen...ist das gut oder schlecht???

liebe über den teich :-*

Viiiel Neues

Am Donnerstag hatte ich wieder B-Day (siehe Dienstag) und es war ganz ok. Das Volleyballtraining ging schon besser, aber ich denke ich mach wieder meinen normalen sportunterricht, ich könnte eh nicht spielen.

Ich hab vergessen mir den Wecker zu stellen und bin ne viertelstunde vor abfahrt aufgewacht! STRESS!!!
Heute war ein schöner Tag. s war wieder A-Day. Theater ist echt mein Lieblingsfach! Ich kann mir nur die ganzen neuen Namen nicht merken! Ich frag alle so 15mal wie sie heißen und ich glaub, das wirkt ziemlich unhöflich und desinteressiert. Ich will ein größeres Hirn!!! Ich kenne schon viele, aber keinen wirklich gut, weil alle einen anderen stundenplan haben :( Wird aber bestimmt :) Der Lunch in der Cafeteria ist einfach nur gross!!!
 Wirhaben schon ziemlich viele Quizzes geschrieben und in Mathe total viel auf. Mann!!
In der letzten Stunde hatten wir heute statt PE eine Pep Ralley weil unser football team heute ein auswärtsspiel hat. Alle waren in der gym und haben das team angefeuert. Die cheerleader und das drill team haben getanzt und die band hat gespielt! GO HAWKS! Black &Gold!!

Nach der Schule haben Jordan und ich Crystal abgesetzt und sind
1. in ein geschäft für jagdzubehör (nur für ohrenschützer). es war gun sale und es gab ein pinkes gewehr!!
2. zum golfplatz wo Jordan jobbt (Golfkarts sind sooo geil :D fastunfall)
3. zu taco bell. jamjam...
4. bowling mit Lacy, Jay, Colton, Courtney, Shannon, Ashley, Shara & ihrer Freundin Theo! First bowling ever! Es ist so lustig! Ich war meistens ultra schlecht, hab am ende aber sogar einen strike gemacht ! Yay!

Morgen mehr.
Liebe über den Teich!
Texas rules! Boo Arkansas!
