Sweet Home 'Solingen'

Lord, I'm coming home to you...

Ok, what a mess.
Today I got some news. I can't go back in august to switch my Visa cuz if I go back I have to stay for at least 3 month.
Yea that's not gonna happen. So I will stay on my Visa for another year till august 2012, which means I'll have less money because I have to pay the agency again ( and so do my hostparents ) and my flights back home in summer, but at least I can go back home whenever I want ( July would be nice because of my mums and grandpas birthday ).

I know some of you already told me that they will be away in august, so I really do hope that you guys will be there in July.

By the way school is awesome. I enjoy my classes and my profs are pretty cool.
I think the fact that english is my second language won't affect my grades as much as I thought. Well, who knows what's gonna happen next month.



I guess I see you guys in 6 month :)


Hope everyone's fine!


Love you. Miss you.

Foreigner on campus

GUYS,

Okay I know some of you just can't read enough about my new 'exciting' life ( Mitschel! ) haha. So here are some news.

I AM STUDENT! Finally. I feel so old and I'm such a foreigner.
I was so lost on my first day last week, although I had a campus map I wasn't able to find anything. But my first impression is really good.
My profs are really nice. strict I guess but should be fine.
I feel really comfortable in my classes the people seem to be nice ( some of them have such a slang ) and the profs are funny, though.

So right now I'm attending 4 courses. And I'm on campus every day from mo-fr.
1. Computer Information System ( which is for my major ' Business Management ' )
2. Analytical Reading
3. Math Trigonometry ( which seems to be too easy )
4. Academic Writing 2

I don't even know why they want me to take this course, but obviously they didn't understand my Highschool certificate which shows that I AM SUCH A MATH PRO ( just in case you guys forgot it haha .
And the other courses will help me to prepare my writing and critical reading skills, which is fine because I want to prepare my english as much as I can.

I will also take some courses in a short summer semester which starts in May.
So before I come back in AUGUST I will be done with 2 semesters already. Yay.

Here some pictures of my 'snowy' campus and me.
By the way they just cancelled classes 30 minutes after I arrived on campus and I needed 45 minutes to go there because of the traffic and the bad roads -.-'
( Actually I don't need more than 20 minutes to go to ' Valhalla ' )

I miss you guys. 7 month and I will be back...

New Year's Eve

HAPPY NEW YEAR GUUUUYS!

Hope everyone had a great start in the new year 2011? I don't really wanna bore you with a long post so here are just a few facts of how we celebrated NYE.
We took the train around 10am and had an unhealthy 'brunch' at Mc Donald's next to Grand Central Station. After that we went to Times Square around 12pm to stay there for 12 hours without using the bathroom, inasmuch as if you need to go you have to leave the gate and if you leave the gate you are not allowed to go BACK! CRAZY!
So we were scared to drink or eat anything.
I was really smart cuz I drank a lot of coke at Mc's -.-' how could I know that you can't use the bathroom?? haha :)

Especially the last 6 hours of waiting were really good. We listened to the Backstreet Boys, Keisha and Taio Cruz, to name a few. It was fun.

Here are some videos. Enjoy!

or maybe not cant upload the videos. --> FACEBOOK!

BUT here are some pictures haha.

Key Largo

Merry Christmas!

Today we went down to Key Largo to celebrate christmas eve with some friends of the family... It was really nice!

We ate too much food, the kids got too many presents... so actually like every day haha. But the house was amazing - the first thing that I asked when we arrived was
'Do you need an au pair?' ;)
Oh and we had a christmas tree and christmas palm trees and fake snow... well better than nothing. But I missed my family and I was sad that I couldn't even call them.
Hope you had a great time guys.

Here some new pictures...

Florida

Hi my best buddies,

hope everyone's fine and looking forward to a big, nice christmas dinner tomorrow night? ENJOY!
Yesterday I landed in Miami and my first impression was really good though!
It is really nice but then Grandpa asked me if its nicer than NY and I wasn't able to say anything against my true love.
It's really nice here, would be great to have a beach house here but that's more than enough then.
What was really funny to me were the CHRISTMAS TREE PALMS haha.

Today we went to the pool - by the way, the weather is great!


Here are some pictures of our street, house and of the pool.
