Okay. You're free to stalk me, now.

Also, I barely get any homework in any of these classes so, it's okay.

Enlgish: Our teacher has an Australien accent. She's nice and offered to give me some English books to read. Seeing as my book stash is diminishing like my candy stash, I'll take her up on that offer. As you can imagine, it's the easiest class. Kind of intimidates me. It'd be horrific to fail an Enlgish for non-natives test.

Economics: Boring. This doesn't relate to the world at all. It's mostly basic stuff. I don't understand any of it anyways. I usually spend the duration of the class beating my translater on tic tac toe. I'm pretty much a pro, now.

German for Guests: Good. I know some people in this class, thankfully. The teacher is really nice in this class, too. I'm actually learning how to create sentences unlike in Olten.

Piano: My teacher is a woman from Hungary. She speaks no English which is sort of awesome.

French: This teacher is the head of our class. She's not at all like Mrs. Selvin (meaning not black. Okay, bad joke). She's not the type of person that would make you cry, is what I'm trying to say. The principle of my school said earlier that this class might be too difficult for me. Well, it turns out I'm ahead. Gave me pride. And I'm not just being snotty. My teacher somehow noticed and talked to me about it. She's giving me some books to read in French which is really exciting. This class also aids me with my pathetic German because I have the French translations must be again translated to me. I learn two languages at once. Oh, also...I cannot speak French at all. Or barely understand it, thanks to Ms. Selvin. Whenever I try, German beats France up Hitler style. And German words come out instead.

Geography: Hate this teacher. She was mean to me on my first day :( I can imagine this class would deeply interest me. But, it doesn't because I barely understand anything.

Chemistry: Sort of different than at home. The Table of Elements is not the same for some reason. I love Chemistry (ha?).

German: Hate this class. It's sort of interesting sometimes, however. Like, we don't do essays or really read books. That's not the focus. Sometimes we listen to classical music (actually, a lot) and learn about paintings and stuff. The teacher is an old man who is awesome. Okay, I don't hate it I just don't understand anything at all.

Drawing: Teacher is wonderful. This class is so great. It's on the bottom floor of the Gym. and so we're slightly lower than the ground. I love taking an art class. It's so calming even though my product is crap.

Math: Way way way behind. Let me remind you, though. I'm in a slightly lower school. There's an intense part of the school, not intense school and kind of a school for bad kids. Hehehee. Yea so, my school isn't math focused. Or Science focused. Right now we're doing areas and volumes. I can't believe how much time she's given us for this one sheet of paper. That plus two more would be homework for a night in Albany. And we've had a month.

Biology: Boring

Computer: Here, my class is split up. One week ten of us go to Practical Biology and the next week we switch. This class is really frustrating because I can't make out the instructions or the words on the computer. I feel utterly pathetic.

Practical Biology: Not really into the teacher but, this class is phenomenal! We all get individual microscopes and we look at Ameobe (Ameobas in English?) and it's so facinating. I love the microscopic animals racing around. I sometimes name them which is slightly creepy.

Sports: OH MAN! I forgot gym could actually be fun! We don't run and stuff. We just play sports. Right now we're doing tumbling which is not my thing at all. So, I usually don't do anything. Or I do sevral push-ups to the side: I know people secretly laugh at me for that.

Music Theory: The teacher is kind of a butt however, this is still my favorite class. On Thursdays we excersize our voices. After that, we sing hilarious songs like 'Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head,' 'If I Was a Rich Man' and 'No Woman no Cry.' It's so awesome. Fridays we learn how to read music and everything that follows.

Practical Chemistry: Half of our class goes to this weekly, like the Computers/Practical Biology. Today the teacher underestimated my common sense and German knowledge so, I'm not a huge fan of her. Besides that, she's alright. Like Practical Biology, this is also physical. AKA labs. I feel bad because people need to work more when teamed up with me (my German illeteracy).

History: Teacher is nice. Pretty good and average boringness.

Homeroom: This is where we learned about a cooking project we'll be doing in like 8 months. I though that was kind of intense. We also have done memory games and such? It's kind of strange, I guess. On the plus side, sometimes we get out earlier for lunch.

Okay so. In the FMS (my regular school) there's no bell. In the Gymnasium there's a quiet bell which is nice because at Albany it's like we're driven toward pre-mature deafness. AHS teamed up with hearing aid companys (and accessories) in a conspiracy to make us consume more. It's not very nice. I therfore appreciate the quiet bell. We also use only blackboards. After class, two students wipe the board with a window-wiper thing and water. Everday I go home for lunch except Tuesdays where I eat at school. I'm usually sorta anti-social but, I love eating Museli.

Thursday: 7.55

October 28

Okay SUNDAY. Was a perfect day. Not hot, not really cold. So, I went for a walk in the forest while listening to a podasct about sleeping. It was really interesting, of course. The walk itself was too short for my tastes but, I had to go meet up with Catherine because we wanted to run there. Autumn kind of ended a bit, that day. The air was smoky and windy. The colorful leaves on the floor of the forest. Amazing. Well, we did this great 2.5 km run. It made me feel a teensy bit better about pigging out on candy the day before but, that satisfation quickly left when we made brownies and ate this delicious burgersalad thing. Yumm. The next day started out well. I'm getting better at being less bored in class without making myself sad. That used to be a bit difficult because I have nothing else to think about except for uh Parker. But, now I'm bringing in stuff I've written down that I want to relearn or memorize. Like, today I know about vitamins, their purpose and which food is the best source of that. I'm sure I'll be able to use that loads (note the sarcasm). And then there was today. Pretty average. Rainy and cold. I might go to the city with a few people from my class. I know I definitely should but, I'm so tired I'll probably be no fun at all. And the carnival IS SO MUCH MONEY. I cannot afford that. 8CHF for one ride? 1min ride. Pleeassse. I could buy a delicious crepe with that money. Okay, that's ridiculously priced too.

Europapark! #2

So, I wasn't actually done but that's alright. In Europapark I thought a lot about the Disneyland trip with me and Cassie. It was so great. And, I thought about how Europapark was kind of a rip-off of it and it just didn't compare. But, it was still fun. There was Pirates of Guantanamo (sp?) Bay. So much like Pirates of the Carribean, but not as fantastic. There was an indoor one in a dome, Posideon like blah blah and such. It was neat because hey had most of the European countries and they're own town. No Vatican City, Liechtenstien or Portugal, I think. Surprisingly, however, they had Africa (I'm not sure Europe has yet to realize that Africa is its own continent...and definitely three times its size) and Dinosaurs and Halloween. Now, dinosaurs and Africa, okay, but Halloween?! It was so mean. I'm already suffering enough, thank you. So stop dangling Halloween in my face. I'm not sure if you know this but, Halloween doesn't really exist in Europe. That's right. They don't do Halloween. they may fool you with their abundent supply of pumpkins but I assure you, they don't.

One of my favorite rides was this 4D cinema. I've been to those, but in this one the story was...actually great. There was no talking. We were a cat. the cat made its way into an abandoned spooky mansion (Halloween-themed). We follow a rat, which leads us to a dead dog that follows us. We escape into this room with seeingly-friendly toys that actually try to kill us. After many close encounters with death, we are captured (and escape) by a vine who seeks to eat our flesh. Then we escape and meet a hungry snake, and spiders before getting outside. Once outside there's a doll with a lantern that beckons us toward a grave and trys to push us in. There are skeletons and the ghost dog who jumps at us. Then, finally, we look into a puddle and what to we see? Our cat-ghost reflection. It was wonderful. Another great 4D part I didn't experience in the other cinemas, is that when it was raining, there were actually drops on our head.

All in all, a great day. Today I'm going to a lonely walk in the forest. I think that's all.

Oh, and I have to make a stupid decision. Shoes shoes shoes. Yes. Do I want to be quirky and unique with awesome forest dwelling shoes? Or cute and cold with sparkly purple flats? Or maybe stylish and sophisticated with oxford shoes. Any help on this matter would be much appreciated. Actually, and ASAP help would be because I have to make up my mind by tomorrow. AKA mommy help me!

Europapark!

IS WHERE I WENT! IT WAS SO GREAT. I even felt sick at the end of the day so, I knew it had completes its purpose. I basically ate all the candy in the world then brought some home for me adding to my candy-food stash (yes, I have one, although it deteriorates rahter quickly and I therefor must keep building it up). And on the subject of obeseness, no. I won't become that because I am eating fairly well for Europe. And, apparently its impossible to avoid weight gain when you're on an exchange. Luckily you return to your normal size upon home arrival. Anyway, back to Europapark. I become unreasonably excited when it comes to amusement parks. This calls for some more reminiscence. My first roller coaster. I believe I was eight or so. And I hated roller coasters. That fact frightens me, now. I was a pretty adventurous little girl but for no reason I would not go on roller coasters. Luckily for my sanity, I voluntered to go on the scariest roller coaster in Great America. Pretty out of character, I'd say. On this ride, you're laying down. Upside down and all. Unbelievably amazing. That was all it took, for me. I was ready for any safeish coaster the world could bring me. Unfortunately, on a later visit to Great America I discovered that my old friend's age of fun had come to an end.

October 23

A pretty good day, all in all. I'm having some trouble, right now but, I'm trying to get through it with happy thoughts. It's just that German is so difficult and I don't really have friends. I am so happy I have Catherine, though. We watch Gilmore Girls (she has every season and it's such a feel-good show) and play 'Dog' and stuff. Oh! Right now she's teaching me the Amelie song on piano. Sehr sehr shön! Ich liebe es. Yea. I can make short sentences fine but seriously. German. So difficult. That's why even when I use my tranlsator I usually don't understand the sentence or question. Okay, this is not nearly the worst German sentence ever but, right now, it's the only one I have written out. That I understand. 'Ich konnte nicht gehen, also ist stattdessen meine Schwester gegangen.' If you literally translated it, word by word, it would be this: I could not go so, is instead my sister went.' Okay. That's actually not bad at all. That's really easy. And: 'Könne ich stattdessen frische Milche für meinen Tee bekommen' is: Can I instead fresh milk for my tea have? YESSSSS! I'm not looking forward to the longest day in the world tomorrow. Grrrrr. Okay, I'm gonna watch Gilmore Girls now so more tomorrow. Tscüss! Swiss German is so cute.

October 18th weekend? I forget dates

Okay well, Friday was terrible and the longest day. But, luckily for me, MOLLY CAME THAT DAY! IT WAS AWESOME! I was so happy and such. So, later we watched Wallace and Gromit then talked for 3-4 hours in bed. That was awesome because we agreed on everything and I've never talked about that stuff with anyone because no one agrees with me on it because they're stupid. No, not really. So, we woke up at 8:30 to get ready to go to Basel cause we needed to pick IDA up. So, we did and stuff. That was cool too. Ida is like the cutest person ever. So, then we walked around town and Molly and I droped a total of 150CHF at a writting store (PRESENTS TOO) which is like the coolest store ever. It's up on a driveway-looking street by the Rhine and one store past the Condomeria. Then we ate lunch on steps leading in t othe Rhine and it was such a beautiful day. After, we went home then biked to the Robinson where we climbed basically every tree house we could. After that, we went straight to the Forest where we hiked up a hill off-route and what did we find? A pumpkin patch. A legit one, too. Because there's no Halloween here so it's actually for eating. We took two gourds and a small pumpkin then made plans for our return when the tractor wasn't there. At home we ate yummy pizza, listened to great music, read about the Donner Party? Yea and at 9 or so, we rode back to the forest. And, we went off route up the patch which was much more painful and scary then our previous journey. Apparently, Ida had never been to a pumpkin patch. And, by her reactions, that was not surprising. She was just like 'OMG! THIS ONE! NO NO NO THIS ONE! THIS ONE IS BIIGER' and it was awesome. But, she was carrying it so we had no problem wit that. We wanted to bake it when we got home but, that failed and we ended up going to bed at 1 then waking up at 730 to take Ida to the station. That day my laptop broke. I was so mad but, Molly mad me feel better. SUnday we had another like 4 hour meal. This time with our French cousins. That was awesome. I spoke so much German and understood a lot too. Nevertheless, I was happy. And now I've gotta go to school.

October 15

Today was really good. And, I'm noticing how quickly the days past by which is kind of surprising. I feel like yesterday was Monday. So, I'm very very gradually making friends. It's difficult when we don't have a serious common interest. Like, at all the AFS stuff we made good friends right away because we all had something huge in common. And, because of that we're all similar. Sort of adventurous and daring, I'd say. So, it was even more than that. It was like people who would like each other getting together and hanging out. There's only one exchange student I don't like. Hopefully she'll get smarter and less annoying. 

So....want to hear about my almost-not-quite friends? It feels peculiar to write about this, but oh well. So...right now my favorites have changes. Alexandra is a strawberry-haired girl and is sorta shy but not. She has a kind of high voice and talks clearly. She explains everything to me in German and actually commits to talking in German and stuff. A lot of people speak English to me which is really annoying. I do not want to speak English at all. I'm already fairly good at that, thank you very much. But, I guess they want to practice. So, then there's Layla. She's tall and I think Indian. Realllllllly really nice. I invited her over for lunch sometime next week along with Elena. Elena has the most hilarious laugh ever. It's so great. She's also insanely nice. Then, Rebecca. We talk a bit but I'm not sure we have a lot in common. She's also one of the three people in our class that smokes ciggggggs. Along with....this ginger girl. Forgot her name. She has this sweet lip piercing and she's nice and funny as well. Then there's Jolanda who speaks English sometimes with me (along with the other girls which is annoying as I stated above). Then there's Jeremy who I sometimes talk to. He's cool because whenever we talk/whenever he asks me questions it's about politics or German vs. English or something of the sort. I admit, the conversation sometimes fails cause I'm limited to 'I want....' 'I like to eat...' 'What are we doing...' and I therefor cannot possible respond to a political question like 'In the vie presidential debate both Palin and Biden did not win me over because Palin is full of shit, stupid and therefor does not know what she's talking about and Biden is better but he wasn't the best in the Political debate' I actually couldn't get past 'Vice Presidential debate.' 

Speaking of that debate...Seriously. I have yet to see the Presidential debate, unfortunately but, I guess that Saturday Night Live clip says exactly what I thought. Especially when Biden and Palin were discussing 'gay rights' and they both said they should have every right that a married couple. But under no circumstances should they be allowed to married. Well, there's no such thing as a perfect person. 

October 14

On my translator I have 'Word of the Day' (which is actually a lie because I get a different one every time I turn it on). I used to find it extremely annoying and pointless because I often don't know the English translation or it's a seriously random word I've not found I've needed so far (like I got 'Shepherd' today. Though, I must admit that's a bit more useful than others). Now, however, I've come to appreciate that fact and I'm almost disappointed when the word is actually useful. So, in class, I sit there turning it on and off writing down these words I can't translate. It's so fun. 

So in Chemistry we got back a test that I took roughly three weeks ago. The grading system is 1-6, 6 being the best. I thought I got a one but...I got a 2,2! I was really proud because I didn't fill out most of the pages and for only studying German for four weeks, then taking a Chemistry test among the pros, I thought that was super (and then my friend told me she got a 6....). My teacher was really surprised that I even took that and was even more so with my final grade. I'm sure I got a 0 on my Biology one, though. But, I also didn't learn anything in Biology.

And I have yet to discover the German word for 'awkward.' That word alone describes many days. 

I have an average teenage-girl moment for ya. Okay so after school I was really happy. It's really autumn (yea, that's right. It's more autumn here than anywhere else. not really but still) and beautiful trees and skies and orange leaves on the ground. AND I'm finally making friends, speaking way more German and understanding more each day, actually. Oh and listening to one of my favorite Okkervil River songs. So, I'm going to my bike, and this whole day I've wanted so much to sing out loud. Especially when listening to Of Montreal. Mouth the words, at the very least. So, I did. No one was there, really. I was sorta mouthing the words and dancing while I took off my lock for my bike and, of course, I look up and this guy from my class (of course the only person around me) was sorta snickering and smiling. Then he just said 'ciao' and walked along his merry way. People say 'ciao' here. And 'merci,' just so you know. They also do that kissing on the cheek (or lips) that totally freaks Molly and I out. Okay. It doesn't really freak us out, we're just not really used to it. At all. And it turns into a total awkward moment where we're wishing we were somewhere else. Speaking of Molly....California. Nebraska. And Norway. Sleepover. This weekend. I'm pretty psyched for that. My German is going to die this weekend. 

October 12

Yesterday I went to Zurich with my 'class.' It turned out to be my teacher, me and Ida. Hilarious, I tell you. Pretty strange. After Ida and our teacher left, I stayed in Zurich for one and a half hours. Really really good shopping but, so expensive. I also could only find boots or black shoes which was really annoying. Then I came home and, of course, got lost on the way but I eventually found it back home. I'm still really tired. Gonna try to go back to sleep. 

October 10

Oh. My. So, today I went to France. I've always thought France was overrated, and Paris wasn't my favoritest city it in the world. But, today I went to France with my cousin and her boyfriend who I ate yummy ummy home-made Tai food with on wed. I thought it would be like everything I've seen before. And, I was right. The drive there was like Switzerland's corn fields, but way less beautiful. So, it was about a two hour drive to the capital of Alsace (Just France is 10min away. Same with Germany), which is Strasbourg. It reminded me loads of Amsterdam. There's a canal, or a few running through the city and brick wall around them with steps down to another sidewalk. The buildings were stereotypically European/French. Long, beautiful, directly bordering others. But, for some reason, even before the sun came out, I was in love. Strasbourg is the most beautiful city I have ever been to. Not place-that goes to a random Swiss countryside (I could never explain their beauty. It would do them no justice but holy crap. . . everyone should see what I've seen). It's not crowded-meaning loads of people-and it's not touristy. Most everyone speaks German there, because it's so close to Germany and Alsace was sometimes German territory. The shops....basically gourmet chocolate, special crepes, super amazing tea, antique stores, used music stores . . . they're all so perfect. Once we sat down on large steps that dove into the canal. It was so beautiful. each way you turn, you could see the amazing brick bridges that cover the city. I wasn't sad about leaving this place, actually relieved, because I know I am going back there. And, I want to go back with someone that I love and can share this place with, as cheesy as that sounds. On the ride back, we passes through French vineyards. There was the smallest, scrunchiest town placed between two hills. In it, there was a small vineyard and . . . ah. It was like a French .... bay area? Not at all. Just, inside it reminded me of some places from California. That's why I loved this town so much. The hill we went up to a dead end where there was some open space and a playground, reminded me of one of the only places I love in Marin. The vineyards remind me of the ones on our way to the Russian River, naturally; the river flowing through reminded me of this forest my mom, dad and I sometimes went to, but never do anymore and the town itself....well...it is so far from anything in the bay area, but I love it's European look. I wouldn't mind living there. 

Marco, Sarah's boyfriend (who I went with today) is hilarious. He'd speak random Spanish to the French people and funny English. Ha. There was this French guy in a wheel chair who was commenting on the fact that he didn't like Marco's gaged ears, and then just started vaguely hitting on us. We couldn't help but laugh a lot. Then he said how he wanted to get to know all of us and oh man....it was a you-should-have-been-there moment for sure. Too funny. 

October 7

TODAY! I woke up early, had a lovely and uhm detailed skype convo with Lion, then I went to IKEA! with meine neue Mutter. Das was sehr sehr gut. Ich muss sprachen Deutsch, wisst du. Lolololol. Ha. I'm actually terrible. But, it's difficult when everyone speaks Swiss-German (it's entirely different, if I've not said so before. Germans canNOT understand Swiss-German).

The Swiss trust people so much. You just go in and try your stuff on. No one there to make sure the number of the clothes you went in with is the same as when you leave the changing room. And on trams, no one checks your ticket and rarely (but sometimes) on the train. And, today we went to a farmer and there's no guy at the register. I mean, it'd be unbelievably low to steal food there, but it's built on a trust system. People count their item's worth and deposit money into a box. But, I was still surprised seeing as bay area folk would cause them to go bankrupt.

Today I also went shopping with a classmate, Jolanda. I bought my dream coat. Wowowow. Beautiful. And mom, I decided you are wrong. Red gloves are what I need. And, it's been a year, so I am now obligated to purchase them and red shoes. FINALLY! Red keds. Earlier, I went through a really grungy stage but, now I'm back to classic. Kind of.

Tomorrow I will be home most of the day. I'm gonna go to lunch at my Aunt's house because Astrid isn't here to make me lunch. I know. I'm perfectly capable of eating cereal, and I told them so but, the cool this is, they really really favor eating all meals with family. Having parents home for lunch. It's nice. Ohhh man. My host Uncle. Hilarious guy. He doesn't speak any English. He's like, the best. Whenever he laughs, you have no other decision but to join in. Yesterday, when I went to congratulate my host Grandpa about turning...90 80? I dunno...he came and picked me up. It was awkward sometimes, with no one else in the car but, it was funny. He's just really great. Kurt.

October 6

Okay. Most amazing thing ever. When we were swimming (outside in a heated pool) at night in Leukerbad, It was already so beautiful. We couldn't, of course, see the usual mountain view but, at night it's so peaceful and we get to go into the Jacuzzi-like thing with our goggles and dare each other to do nearly impossible stuff. Well, while we were swimming, it started to snow! It was so great. Then, that night I dreamed that it snowed outside. As soon as I woke up, Catherine pointed to outside. And, sure enough, snow was covering everything. It was thick snow, because it was only from that night, but it was so great! Now I'm just hanging around the house like a lazy bum. Giving my ipod beautiful Album covers. 

It looks nice today so, I think I'll explore the forest. 

October 3

Hello all. I don't have much to say about adventures but, I do have some to say about my level of tirdeness. Which isn't that much, but I still had an intense night, in my book. I feel like a lot of stuff happened that normally shouldn't while on vacation. But, no matter. it actually wasn't so intense but, that's alright. Lately, I've been having lots of dreams that I guess lead to my tiredness level. This is why I gave up on being a Buddhist. My mind just doesn't sleep. And, I wouldn't trade my nightmares for a dreamless night. I love them, actually. Well, lately we've been playing three games of Dog (which is like Sorry but so so so so much better) so, I had this fracking frustrating dream about actually playing it. Who wants to play a boardgame in their sleep? No one at all. I'd rather be fighting of evil people or flying. Something I can't do in real life. Or would be too scared to do.

So, I've been thinking about gifts for you all and they're great. And expensive, unfortunately so no cool new shoes or pretty things (except a watch) for me for a while. And mommy, there is so much I'd like to buy you, it's insane. So, I think I'll buy you this one thing and the other super expensive thing I'll buy as a gift for both of us because we'd both enjoy it (and I do right now, thankfully).

So, tomorrow we leave for Basel again. I'm kind of exciting because I get to finally hang out with people from my awesome class and do nothing. Catherine's going to Tunisia asap (actually on the way) so it's just me and my guitar. And the rest of my family, of course. Oh man chocolate. Has anyone seen the chocolate episode from Spongebob? That's the motto of Molly and mine. CHOCOLATE! CHOCOLATE?! Yea. I love it. And I'm starting to save up (oh I've also developed a table listing what I've spent, how much I took out, and what I have left for the month and what I want or need) for all the chocolate in the world to bring home. I dunno how I'll live. Godiva might not even do. Oh man and Hersheys. I never want to eat that crap again. It's disgusting. Just thinking about it makes me want to puke.
