Shayla's Birthday PartyOn Sunday I went to my host nieces birthday party. It was a pool party. Yes, a pool party in winter! I had much fun and I hope Shayla had a great birthday. A bad week...This week isn't going really well for me. I had a rough start. I wanted to see my best friend cheer but we were 3 minutes late, so I missed it. And yesterday was everything going crazy because of the tornado waring. At least we got 3 hours delayed today. The best of all is my best friend is until next week in Disney! How am I supposed to survive school until you come back, Julie?
I'm so glad we went to eat with my host sisters family today. It gave me energy again and we had so much. I have so much luck having such funny and crazy host family. I am ready for the rest of the week!

I haven't been uploading something on my blog lately, mainly because i try to keep myself busy and enjoy my last few months here. Orlando Trip '16From January 14th to January 18th I was on a Trip to Orlando with the Southern and Middle EF Alabama group. We left Thursday night with the bus and arrived Friday morning in Orlando. We went straight to Disney World. We spent Friday and Saturday in all the Disney parks. We could go by groups with at least 4 people. Sunday we were at the Universal Studios. What I personally liked more than Disney. Since I have been back...I went to a birthday party. Had a lot of fun doing a school project with Julie and Michela. Had a great sleepover with Elin and Maider, we discovered our passion for just dance. And some relaxing days with my host mother. I am so glad I got to spent the night with friends from Crossville. I had a great time. It was really fun. We played a game I forgot the name and I kept winning. I think it's going to be my new favorite game.
I met a lot of new people. Great way to start 2016 with. I was really tired afterwards because I didn't really slept. So after Doris picked me up and we got some breakfast, I went straight to bed. 2016 is going to be my year. After my nap we ate a lot black eyed peas for good luck and greens for money for this year. Happy New Year y'all! I had ups and downs this year, I have learned a lot and made a lot of memories. All in all I had a great year. I had a sad but a beautiful end of my school back home. I am thankful for those years of memories with all of them guys. A great winter camp and a great school vacation. Times I will never forget. I had the best summer ever! With my family and my friends. A summer we all never forget. Excited for next summer with my friends. I went on my journey of my exchange year. I am glad I did even though I struggled some. I experienced so much here, I learned and grown. I met new people I will never forget and hope to see again. Today I had a great day with the best host mother to end 2015 with. And I am ready to start 2016 and make a even better year out of it. I am gonna work my bucket list off for my exchange year. I will reach all my resolutions. And I will fight for what I want.
I realized something.
All my life I was negative about everything. I didn't wanted to get myself disappointed if I am excited about something and then it's not going to turn out how I want it. The same with this exchange year. I was all excited about it and I expect it different. And I was dissapointed and thought everything is bad. But it is only so bad how I bad i make it. A friend made me realize that I always complain and not appreciate what I have. I talked with my regional coordinator, she told me a lot about other exchange students and made me even more realize that I need to change something. I am going to be positive! New Years resolution set. Thank you Penny and Doris for supporting me and helping me with everything.
After a few rough days here I got my enthusiasm back. I am glad I spoke with my family back home.
Sometimes I get depressed by small things and let me push down easily, but my famliy made me realize again that I have to take the initiative to change things. Ready to enjoy an other 5 great month in Alabama. I am so happy with my host family. I had a great Christmas Eve. We played the Jelly Bean challenge and I already got two great presents and I hope they liked mine. I am excited for tomorrow! A GREAT DAY WITH TABEA AND ELINToday, I went with Elin and Tabea to the Gadsden Mall. We went around 11 am with Elins hostfathers camper to pick up Tabea at her friends house. I had a great day at the mall! We spent around 6 hours at the mall with a lot of fun. I am glad having such great friends. My first gingerbread house I made today with Samuel.
12.17.2015My hostmother and me wanted to go to get our hair done. So because I was out of school because of semester exams, we went pretty early, around 10 but the hairdresser was busy. We told her we're going to be back in an hour. So we went back home to get a part of the shower that was broken. And on our way back to Albertville, we went to get some pecans. We went to the Lowes to get a part for the shower but how two women in a homeworker shop end up was obvious. Even after the help of an employee we couldn't find that part. So I thought we're going to Wallmart to get groceries but Doris just dropped me off at a nail salon and got me a pedicure while she was getting groceries. One of my Christmas present, is what she said. Well, we both were so hungry that we ended up at Cracker Barrels eating breakfast. At that point it was already way more than an hour later but Doris needed something she couldn't get in Wallmart so we went to Foodland, where I went to the Dollar store next door. And after that we finally made it to the hair dresser. Doris got a nice hair cut. I cut my hair too and she did a great job. It's pretty short now but it looks so much better now.
I had a great day with Doris and I am glad having such a great host mother. Happy Birthday My Swedish FriendNovember 9th, we went to Maters with Elins family and friends. I hope she had a great birthday. She got a lot of presents and we had so much fun. It was a great evening. Those days they feel like Friday. Thank you for being my friend.
