hey everybody!
how is it going in good old j-town? i'm so excited about visiting ya'll!
i hope the weather is not as bad as it is here in germany, bavaria! we got about 40 inches of snow the other night! nobody knows where to put all the snow cause there is snow everywhere. they can't even shovel all the snow away from the autobahn which is like the most important street in germany! it's really bad. the trains where not driving today and tomorrow we get to come late to school and get off early because it will take forever to get to the school and back because of all the snow.
but it's really fun to play in the snow. we jumped into the snow today from a garage roof! scary in the beginning but lot's of fun!
well i have to shovel some more. it's very exhausting! the snow is so heavy! there are already two gyms which couldn't take all the snow so they broke down. but luckily nobody was injured.
well i'll leave ya'll with that. i'm probably gonna put some pics up if i can get it workin
love ya'll!
see ya'll soon!

hey!
how are ya'll? i'm sick, i got a bad cold but it's alright. who wouldn't be sick if it's like 0 degrees fahrenheit all the time! and they are talking about the weather getting warmer! you know how many degrees? 30!! wow it's soo freezing!
but oh well, i can't do anything about that freezing weather. just try to ignore it and wear a bunch of cloath!
4 days till by birthday! that means i'm allowed to drive again! i'm gettin my german drivers license!! i'm soo excited! i hope i'm gettin lots of presents! i love unwrapping them! hehe! but i will see. to turn 18 in germany is just the same as turning 18 and 21 in america at the same time. so it's something really special! i'm soo excited!
i'm probably gonna stay one day longer in j-town cause it's cheaper to stay 14 days instead of 13... i'm not sure why but that's what they told me. so i don't care. maybe i have to skip first day of school but oh well. i don't care as long as i can visit you guys! it's gonna be so much fun!
well that's all for now. i'm going to look at a car now. a really small one. but that's the kind i'm getting. probably only sitting like 4 people! hehe! but it's cute!
love ya'll!

well i haven't updated in forever! how is everybody doing? i'm doing just fine. i got lots to do at school. i'm studying all the time! whenever i finish studying for one test another one is coming up. so i'm always bussy. but all the studying is worth it cause i'm almost always having good grades and i don't like bad grades. i even got best in my math class eventhough i wasn't at school last year! i was soo proud of myself!
it's soo cold! it's in the 20's or 30's all the time! but we are having lots of snow! i was going to go skiing last weekend but i got sick. so no skiing for me. i wasn't at school for 3 days. and missed some tests but i don't care. i might get to go next week! i'm soo excited!
Christmas is coming up and i haven't bought any presents yet. haven't even thought about it. i really need to start thinking about it.... but i still got time! i will hopefully get done it time. i went shopping last saturday but it seemed like every single person who lives in munich was out to get christmas presents! so i just bought me some cloth! i love shopping!
i was just really hungry and so i looked in the freezer to find me something to eat. but on top of everything there was choclate ice cream! so i had a big bowl of ice cream! i love ice cream! but now i'm freezing! but it was worth it!
well that's enough for right now. i might update sometime again.
love ya'll!

well i have visited all my relatives and friends and yeah everybody( well at least almost). my mom and my older brother visited my grandma yesterday and today. she lives in nuernberg and so i got to drive back to munich! i was driving 125mph on the autobahn! it was fast but fun! next monday i get to drive to italy to our little house at the lake. i'm not really excited about it. but i'm looking forward to the food! i hope the weather will be nice so we get to swim a lot! we will see.
i have been doing a lot of stuff with my friends. it is fun! especially if you have a car! and dont have to ask everybody for a ride! now i am the person who gets to take everybody home! but i like it!

it finally works! sorry that it is so long
i was trying to updat a long time.... but it never worked. but now im glad it works so everybody can read it and leave messages again!
so i dont really know where to start. last monday( my last moday in america) i spent some time with jasmin, brittney and hannah. we were just riding around and i dont really remember what we were doing. and on that night there was my going away party! i had so much fun! thank you so much for coming and making it special! even though i thought i would have to kill somebody for the whole elvis thing! but it was kinda funny too! we kinda had a window chalk war! that was fun! lindsey and me even got to go in steves room and write on his window and mirrow! that was fun! than i got thrown in the pool with all my cloth even though i was wearing a white shirt!.... but thanks for throwing me a black one! brittney and me decided to write on nate stallings truck... BAD MISTAKE! he came after us with a really big watergun! i have never seen one that big! but we had fun and thats all that matters!
after everybody left (and almost all the crying was over) we went to wendys to say good bye to elizabeth and than to pauls. and than we started wrapping houses! that was soo much fun! we got lance, derique, brian and.... BAD MISTAKE again..... NATE AND APRIL's.... i was just glad that i left before they noticed it! im sorry for ya'll who helped because nate is getting you back! even worse! that might be one reason why i cant come back next year... just kidding. after we got done wrapping houses with 6 or 7 24-packs of tp we went to the cemitary which wasnt scary at all. lindsey and brittney stayed the night with me and since we werent really tired we decided to windwo chalk some more people. i think we got only zach and steve. and we wraped some more tp around their cars! zach had already clean is truck of from before and so i wrote reallly big on it again! and on his window!( i had to go through bushes!)
i didnt sleep at all that night and just did some more packing. the next morning we went to memphis and had my last time taco bell. too bad that we couldnt find a schakes close! that would have been perfect! so we came to the airport and i checked all my suitcases in but.... one of them was way to heavy so i had to pack some stuff in a box since i couldnt buy a suitcase at the airport. we spent so much time with all the packing and trying to get a box or something that it was already time for me to go to the plane. it was really sad( and i was still crying on the plane) to just walk away from friends that you have know for "only" one year and are already really really good friends! but i try to come back! i promise!
as soon as i got to chicago i thought i needed to hurry to catch my next flight sine i only got like 1 hour and a little bit and i had to walk across the entire airport. as soon as í got to the gate i said that my flight was delayed. so it was 615 instead of 550. so that was ok. so i got me a magazine and i got back and looked again and it said 715! i was just thinking that i hurryed so bad to get there and now i have to wait really long! well i passed the time with reading and so it was ok. as soon as i got on the plane i fell asleep and woke up just in time to watch "the beauty shop" because i had already seen all the other movies you could chose from. i tryed to sleep some more but than we got food and so i had to eat and after that i finally got back to sleep for some more hours and than i finally arrived in munich! it was a wired feeling because so many people were talking german.... well thats the way germany is but it was still wired.
after i got all my suitcases back i saw my twin brothers( they are tall! wow) and my parents! it was really good to see them after that long! once we got to poing i picked up my little cousin carlo and he couldnt belive that i was back! he was so happy! and at home i saw by big brother jan! i was really happy to see everybody! we had weisswurst and brezen for lunch! really good! and than i went to the tennis courts for a little because my brothers were playing and than i watched tv and fell asleep until lea and stefan came.... and alec and dani later. i was soo tired and they wanted me to tell them all this stuff and so i was talking with a really american accent and mixing all these english words in my german sentences... it was funny for them!
what else did i do since i have been here...... i visited all my scout friends... my tennis friends my friends from school...from my old school... and palyed a lot of tennis! i could beat everybody of you american people now! hehe!
well but thats just about it! tomorrow im probably going to the "bundes garten schau". thats a big gardening exhibit thing... it supposed to be really good
and i learned how to drive without automatic and it is kinda hard but i almos got it! and i payed only 19.96 and normaly it cost between 1500 and 2000! so im happy about that!
well thats enough for today. i still need to clean my room because all my stuff is still on the floor. kinda like your room lindsey but probably not quite as bad!
i miss ya'll
love

today lindsey linda and me went to graceland! it was so cool to see his house, cars and airplaines! he was really ritch! they gave us thesse audio tours and in almost every room you had to push a new number on it to get the person talking... but one time it said to wait and so i walked down the hallway and just looked at all that stuff and typed in a new number and it was talking about all this stuff that i already saw! so i just listened to it and tyed in the new nuber as soon as i saw it... it was confusing. but it was still really cool! i took so many pictures and my battery was already low in the beginning and as soon as i took the last picture of the airplain it went off! that was perfect timing! we had a good day and elvis rocks!
on wednesday after we played tennis at refuge we went swimming. lindsey and lindsey got something to drink from the gasstation and i got some water. i decided to eat pizza first and than get my water out of the other room but steve came in and said that they had another water. i thought it was my water and started drinking it. so steve came running into the room and taking my water away! and i was like: hey that's my water! but he jsut said: don't drink it! don't drink it! by that time i already drank like almost half of it! and so he told me that it was POOL WATER!!!!!
yesterday i went to the softball games and later to eat with the bakers and than to the pool house. while steve was swimming lindses and me decided to window chalk steves car! so i wrote pool water and poop on his car! but since it was so dark he couldn't really see it and he only saw pool water on the back and so he asked me if that's the only thing we wrote and i was like yeah that's all! this morning he texted me and told me that he saw the poop!! lindsey and me were laughing! it was really funny!
tomorrow refuge is going to the lake! so i hope that's gonna be fun and i hope i get a nice tan! but we leave at 6am!! that's really early. but we get to spent more time at the lake so that's good!
cyaS
love ya'll!
have a good weekend!

sometimes you should think a little bit more than you already do...
it didn't rain for the last i don't know how many weeks! and it rained on 4th of july! but we still could shoot some fireworks! it was so much fun! we got all fireworks half price off and so we bought a lot! yesterday we went to little rock to the water park. nate came to visit us! but as soon as we got there it started raining and they had to close the park! since the water park was closed we ended up going to the mall instead. britteny danielle and me had taco bell and than some icecream. after we eat we were just wondering around and than we saw these cool massage chairs! it was funny! and we were laughing so hard b/c the chair was pinching us. after we got home we went to the pool house and played maffia for a little while and than went swimming. we had fun until i wass diving into the water at the shallow end and hit my head really bad. my nose was bleading and my lip busted too. now i got a big bump on my forehead and my nose is twice the size it's supposed to be and my lip is busted. it looks worse than that it hurts but it still didn't feel really good. but the good thing is that my nose is not broken! today i had taco bell and shake's! so i was a happy girl! the only thing i really did today was watching movies and more movies.
ttys!
love ya'll!

yesterday david, lindsey, steve, lindsey and me went to DQ! and afterwards we went to buy some fireworks! in the beginning i didn't really want to spent any money to buy stuff that makes booom! so i bought some really cheep stuff. so we went to lindsey baker's house and started to lite some but it was really loud and so we went close to david's house. after a lot of booooms and bright flames we decided to visit paul and let him listen to some booooooms but he was already asleep and didn't even wake up... since it was already after 11 and we had church today we all went home. but it was fun! i love fireworks!
well linda and me are fixing to make some homemade icecream for church! so you better come later and eat some! it will be really good! or actually you can come... but not eat any! b/c i will eat all of it before we go to church!
somehow i got a million mosquito bites on my legs and it itches sooooo bad! i really hate mosquitos!
well i better get off here and help to make some icecream!
ttyS!( just for you steve!)
love ya'll
