A Butter Pie?

I miss all of you!!!
I really do!!
Facebook has eaten my soul, as has school and everything...
A lot of stuff has happened. I mean, a LOT of stuff.

I lets see....
I got a job at a local Animal Hospital in the Kennels. I've been working there for about say, 4 or 5 months now, and I'm pulling th emoney in and saving up for a trip to China this April. Right now, we have a chinese exchange student staying with us, her name is Ting Ting. She is so awesome- she doesn't say no to any foods, she's always eager to do anything and laern new words in english.

I got my license this summer, therefore granting me more freedom- I did some house sitting for a friend of mine, and became really good friends with a kid in my dads band. we're really tight now- Charley plays sousa in dad's band. I'm really worried about him, though, he has a lot of thigs on his mind all the time. I really want the best for him, but Karma doesn't seem to be doing him much good.

My car's muffler is shot.... the car is really obnoxious and loud to drive now....

We got 15 chickens, one of them we recently discovered to be a rooster. anyone interested in having a pet rooster? I want to keep him, but my dad promised the neighbors that they wouldn't hear crowing.

I'm enrolled in a Veterinary class in school, it takes up 3 periods of my day but it's well worth it. I'm trying to keep my grades up, but so much has been going on lately that I've been getting really stressed. I've taken to meditation for about a half hour every night, and it really helps.

My parents bought a company recently, (the closing was today) so things have been hectic with that.

I have my first boyfriend as of yesterday :D his name is Kenny, he goes to Salem High and is in my dads band.... he says he's alright with dating me and having my dad as a teacher. He also plays the trumpet... hopefully I'll see him tomorrow and we can hang out during the weekend... I really hope this goes well :)

the car I've always wanted :)

I need song lyrics from a song that "describes" me. we are doing these "share-bags" in health and I havent found any lyrics. heeeeeeeelp! :)

odd. funny how we are trying to find out more about space when we don't even know everything about our own planet.



I like my new classes, my teachers are nice and entertaining(as in, not boring) but I like them a lot better than freshman year. My geometry teacher is kind of monotone, but we are only doing standardized tests right now. Blech.

German is doing well, I have a lot more translating to do, and its only the first week.

Health is AWESOME, the teacher is supah funny (and sarcastic) and there are a lot of ppl I know in the class, so its entertaining.

World History is.... all freshmen. and a couple of juniors. But Mr. Tag isn't as bad as everyone says, he is actually quite reasonable and funny.

Chorus is okay, but on the first day the new teacher gave us a really hard gospel-like peice. she knows how to make ppl listen, though, which is good but not for the people who say "OMG Chorus is like, totally SOCIAL HOUR! WOO-HOO!" I hate those people.

English is fun. good discussions and work, and awesome people in the class.

Half Study is boring. and hot.

Lunch, I eat with Kyle, Adam, Lucas, Maddie, Ben, random kid, Adam, Katie, Alicia, and Marie. sick lunch. new freinds. its all good.

and Biology is, so far, good. I like the teacher, the work is really easy, and, best of all, I can relate to the subjects. Animals, Plants, the world, good stuff. :)


We saw the Salm band show today, it was Salem vs. Timberlane, and Salem won (when I left) 40-10. I cant wait for the Pinkerton vs. Salem game. fun stuff.

the band show was good, for August, colorguard could use some work but otherwise awesome. it also was good considering that they re-wrote the drill in one week and rehearsed it.

all for now. I made freinds with a german who is living in a town close by, and have been emailing him for a long time :)
hope I can post again soon. school....

If you ahve gone to PA, let me know how these teachers are :)

A: Geometry (eew) Baily
B: German Hooper
C: Health Cunningham (shes supposed to be funny :))
D: World History Tagalakis (AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!)
E: Chorus Whitney
F: English Easter
G: Study/Lunch Benson
H: Biology Fair

so a somewhat good start to the year. I hope I survive Geometry.

I had a dream that I was Harry Potter and for some reason I had turned into "the Griffindor Fountain" and I couldnt talk or anything but I had eyes and I could trap ppl I didnt like inside me, and Ron figured out it was me and kept hugging me....

it was kind of cool becuase all the while it was narrated in JK Rowlings style.... I have dreams like that where it is nothing but talking, or me reading a book, and all of the words make sense but then I wake up and I dont remember them...

except the only thing I remember from this dream was " Harry reached up to his face, and his hands touched a rouch surface in the shape of a cross. Soon he could not move his arms at all, they were locked to his sides. He had turned into the Griffindor Fountain!" I dont know where It was going to end up, but I might have a lead for a story there :)

wow so hot. I want to go to a concert right now. I love Ok Go.

watch it. Damian is the lead singer <3

The Part of You That No One Sees

You are compassionate, caring, and soothing. You like other people to depend on you... In fact, you don't feel right unless you are helping someone out. Underneath it all, you feel the burden of everyone's problems. Without your guidance, you fear that many people's worlds would fall apart. You like to feel in charge, even if it brings you a lot of stress.

its right, I bouth a TON of presents over here, that is why half of my money was gone in the first week O.o

ok

soo havent been able to update lately, I have been running around Deutschland too much. 

I know next friday  we are going to Czechloslovakia (or however that is spelled) and then the wednesday after that I am going hoooome! :) yay  I have had an awesome time here, and it went by all too fast, and still is, but I miss everyone ( specially puppy :)) 

I am reading Harry Potter for the third time in two weeks and finished it for thw first time last monday morning. I'm going to miss it :( 

I hope I can fit everything in my suitcase and not go over the weight limit, other wise I may have to put some stuff in my backpack with me on the plane :o and I am also down to my last 100 dollars, but with a little over a week left, and if I dont buy too much, it should be ok.. my mom did give it to me to spend, and how many times am I going to be in europe?

We went to Luxembourg and France a couple days ago, but only for about an hour in each. so 4 countries in one trip :)

O, and berlin was amazing, but it was scorching hot and the hotel was really crappy. I dont know if I already said that, and I am too lazy to go and check :)

bis später

If anybody  DARES Give ANY spoiler about the 7th Harry Potter Book, I will come and beat them with a wet noodle!!! (dunn dunn DUUUUUUN!!!!)

but seriously,  I WILL rant.

BERLIN WAS AWESOME!!

I had so much fun. I wanna go again.

I had soo much Eis (ice cream, WAAAY better than ours at home) my favorite kind being Erdbeer (strawberry) and my favorite dish being Spaghetti Eis. you know those playdough things where you squish the playdough through little holes and it comes out like spaghetti? well, picture doing that with vanilla ice cream, underneath the ice cream is frozen whipped cream, and all of it is topped off with strawberry sauce (the tomato sauce) and tiny peices of white chocoalte ( the parmesan, if you will) served with a sprig of basil on the side, which you obviously dont eat. mmmmmmmmmm soo good. the food here is soo good.

I wnat to go to berlin again, it was a lot of fun.

and the hotel:

bugs squished on the ceiling (didnt know how it happened at first, but we soon found out when there was a mosquito in the room, Luise took a magazine and jumped on the bed and squished it up there, lol!)

no shampoo

the soap in the bathroom was pump soap, but USED. there was hair sticking to it and it was wet. the pump didnt work, so I just opened the top.

Tiny tiny bathroom- the shower didnt have much of a dip in the floor, and there was really nothing to keep the water inside the shower, so the whole floor got wet. I put towels around the base of the shower, and somehow water still splashed onto the floor >:(

one very dim ceiling light, and two reading lights above the beds.

The remote control for the tv didnt work

there was a WINDOW into the bathroom, it was a little fogged but if you went up close to it, you could see straight into the br.

COCKROACHES

really flat pillows taht hurt your neck if you attempt to sleep on them

NO AIR CONDITIONING!! and it was REALLY HOT in berlin!

Overall, the only good thing about the hotel was the breakfast.

Five questions from jadedgeneration

1. What is your favourite animal to own as a pet, and why?

Somewhere there is a lot of animals and wildlife, where I can get a job to work with exotic animals and such. :)

3. How would you describe or explain your religious beliefs?
I am a Lutheran, so its pretty much that Jesus was born, what he preached about, he died on the cross, he was risen, and now he watches over us with God.  Also that God created the earth and the whole story behind that :)

4. What is your favourite book?
hmmm.... I like Harry Potter, and Warriors the best, sot hose two series win :)

5. Where is the strangest place you ever fell asleep?
Idk...... on a bus? ummm..... I guess in (german) math class. I fell asleep without realizing, and I woke up and was all like "omgwtf where am I ?!?!?"

So First I went toschool with Kristin, I stayed for her religion class and then went to town for a couple hours. I walked around all of the buildings, just to get my setting and how to get back to the school. I went to this shop calles Kinderlande or something and looked around for a bit. then I went to a magic shop and got something, but I cant say on here, as it would spoil a surprise :) 

I went around a bit more and didnt really do anything, except I did go into a shoe store, then walked out after realizing tha I didnt know my european shoe size. I got Ice cream and then waited at Ballplatz for Kristin, taking pics of the school as I went. I went to math with Kristin which was extremely broring, and then met Cathrin at the tree in Ballplatz.

We went to get my Fußball t shirt, a national team one, and then Cathrin and I went to get it screened. I got "Deutschland" on the corner in the front, with 19 underneath and on the back "Shneider" and 19. I love it!!

While we waited for the shirt to get screened, we went to a restauraunt and I pretty much had ice cream for lunch. but now I am very hungry.

I love the outcome of my shirt, I am wearing it right now.

Kristin is leaving for Australia tomorrow, and I wont see her again for the whole summer! :( It was nice to see her and spend time with her when I could :)

More tomorrow when stuff is happening again. :)
