Month 7

My mom came recently to visit me for just under a week. We went to the TV. tower in Berlin, ate legit pizza (made by Italians), went to the Therme, and she also got to meet a couple of my friends.

The day after I took my mom to the Airport (at 5 in the morning), I went on a weekend trip to Hamburg with my host family for a bakers' convention (we went for the samples!). We ate a lot that day, and then afterwords went on a bus tour and then Shopping. In the shopping mall I ran into an exchange student that was in my district in USA last year and it was completely by chance that we met there. In a city of over 6 million people, its nice to get that small-world feeling again. I also heard that there a good 5,000 millionaires there, and I was considering throwing myself in front of the most expensive cars to see what would happen for to go on a husband-hunt, but unfourtunately I didn't end up doing either of those things.


I started playing soccer with my school's girls' team. It's actually so much fun! I'll be doing that always on Tuesdays, but it's somewhat sad that I didn't go sooner because I only have one more week until Europe Tour and a couple other trips, and won't really be in town for over a month. I can't wait for it :) It will be really weird to just not go to school for over a month though, what if I forgot to tell someone that I'm leaving?

Last night was a friend's 18th Birthday party. We danced all night and went to bed at 5:30 and it was AWESOME. So much fun. I can't even explain it. Germany is amazing. I love it.
