~Erin Lee Weiss

Okay, I don't wanna sound nerdy, but I'm sorry, I'm new at this. This kid *points at dan* is the coolest and best exchange student I've ever met, heck he's probably cooler than most americans! He LOVES Dr. Pepper, and he is okay at Pool, getting better tho. Yeah, that's pretty much it...

-Zac "the lunchbox" Fidler

Okay here we go AGAIN, since blogspot somehow managed to delete two of the paragraphs I had written already I need to put them down again! -.-" The Guest writers thing is fun, even though even I don't get what Erin's writing is supposed to mean this time :P but that's okay haha I really am gonna miss all this people ): AWWWW!

Anyways my week: It was pretty much the same old, school still is easy and boring, but hey we at least don't have any full week of school anymore :D Next week's friday there's a field day kinda thing, the week after that we get friday off for prom, after that there's memorial day and then the finals are there already :O That's pretty cool I guess, but on the other side it's only such a short time till I leave ): ): But I don't wanna bore you anymore w/ Stuff nobody even cares about so here we go:

The awesome weekend!

So the weekend :) here we go :D be prepared ;D

FRIDAY

GARAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGEEE! ;D awesomeness ! alot of people, more or less, my age were there and we had alot of fun :) We really just hang out, and my pool skills are starting to devolve again, since Zac wasn't there this weekend and we don't play pool as much anymore in the week :O but that's okay :) we had TONS of fun and not only were there the usual people from around the neighborhood, no actually somebody from Andrean showed up! SURPRISE! :D My buddy Paul K (not Paul C...) and his friend Brian (not big brian :P) showed up :) Paul was kinda weird that night though, since he normally isn't even allowed to leave his house on the weekend, he was very excited to be able come :O But it was fun, we pretty much just sat around and talked oh and did the, now almoust traditionally, walk to CVS to get some AMP energy drinks xD

So not much to say really I mean it's just the usual awesome crazyness in the garage you know :P I'm so glad I got this host family it's so much fun!!!! :> Pic time now, ofc I took some random pictures again :D :

Erin was there ofc :D

Paul and Lauren! This pic actually turned out very nice :)

Katherine (she was at the garage some time ago) and me

Paul and Brian
Umm yeah lol Lauren's smile looks awesome and my expression is just screwed up, but that's okay :P

Besides these people also Ryan Wilson and his brother Cameron were there, no pics of them though Idk why :O

List of people there: Erin, Lauren, me, Katherine, Ryan, Cameron, Lou ofc, Paul K, Brian

Zac wasn't there btw, because he had to be at his dads again :O ):

Saturday:

Driving in the morning! Last drive! I practised some parallel parking and got an B- average overall :) That's all I needed, now I can do my drive test at the driving school :)


Anyways what we did after driving lesson was: CHICAGO!!!! SIGHTSEEING!!! It was really alot of fun! :) Me and Sandy were the only ones that went though, don't ask why long story :P We took the train from Gary metro station (yeah not a good place to be at at night I can assure you of that :P) and walked all over Chicago from there :) We started at the Millenium park (somewhat comparable to the Central park in NY); continued w/ the center of culture and art; went to a 13 floors department store; looked at the lake/river; went up to the Sears Tower; Had some chicago thick crust pizza and looked at the big fountain (I forgot the name, dang! ;P) as well as many other things :) We then took the train back to Gary, which we reached at about 9 PM. I had a very very good time and especially the sears tower (okay soon willis tower :P), the biggest building in the USA, was amazing and offered an amazing view, even though they had closed the highest floor and you could just go up to the 99th floor :D

Pictures:

In millenium Park, a pretty big screen :D
you can do some SERIOUS shopping there :D
Sears tower...
...from the ground...

...and the view from the top :>

But even though, I walked around chicago all day and my feet were dying the night was hardly over yet when we got home the Garage was waiting of course :D that day it was pretty much the same people as on Friday, w/out the two people from Andrean ofc :P We pretty much just did the talking thing again, and of course, not to be forgotten if it's american teenagers, we were all txting like crazy :P I even managed to text from Erin's phone OMG! :P She's got some weird word recognizing on her phone, which makes it kinda complicated to text, but now I know how to :D Oh and 3 people from Merrillville High showed up, that Cameron (Ryan Wilson's brother) knew, a girl called Pauline a guy called Jose and another guy whose name i forgot :P sry ;D but they only stayed for about an hour before they had to leave, so no Pics either :D they said though they will come back next weekend :D

One funny story really quick :D : Lauren recorded me saying: "WHAT'S UP?!" (I got a very enthusiastic way of saying it and I do it like every 20 minutes when nobody's talking, even if the answer always is "not much" "Nothing" or "Idk" :P ) and put it on her phone as the ringtone for new txts ! I feel special haha my voice surely will be a famous ringtone all over the US very soon ;P

Ryan, Idk why the picture isn't very sharp...

Lauren!
Umm, we somehow managed to take a picture in the exact same instant haha (Erin's glasses are fake ofc :P)
Me and Cameron Wilson

So, for an overview a list of the people there Saturday: Erin, Lauren, me, Katherine, Ryan, Cameron, Lou ofc, Pauline, Jose and the other guy :D

SUNDAY:

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY MOM IN GERMANY! SANDY! AND EVERY OTHER MOM!!! :D The first day I was able to sleep in, for like 2 weeks, I always had driving/driver's ed classroom lessons...

Today was kinda boring but anyways, here's what I did all day in short telegraph style:

Hang out w/ Erin- Txt/chill - Sit in the garage - eat dinner - Hang out in the garage w/ Erin and Zac, who got back from his dads - write my blog - go to bed :D

That's all people I'm gonna go 2 sleep now, I hope you had as much fun reading this as I'm having overhere, I doubt it though, it's very hard to have that much fun ;P


The End w/ a picture of the bean and me ! :)

Guest writers!!! YAY!!! ERIN!! PAUL!!!! oh and me ofc writing too much stuff ;P

Hey there, lookin good!!!! haha this is Daniel's secret American hoe (haha just kidding) I'm sitting here with Daniel and Paul. It's really fun here. With my two favoritest people ever!!! Haha So I'm gonna be really sad when Daniel leaves, but that's okay. We've had so much fun so far, and I'm looking forward to the rest of the time. He's a really cool guy! Ahhh.......that's alright I bet he'll never forget this psycho American girl he broke a sign in Lou's garage with. The last weekend was fun. We wanted to go to the movies, but, Daniel screwed that up! haha jk. So we just stayed at teh garage. we hung out here played stupid games, then I went home around two. Saturday was tons of fun, we went to a world war two reenactment. It was amazing, definetely something you don't get in history class. Afterwards, we went to Ponderosa. YUMMY!! It was good. then I had to go to a fancy party, and came back later that night in a dress. Haha. Hmmmmm then we watched movies! oh funnnnn. Then my brother called, and I had to go home. Darn but that's okay. Now, we're sitting here in the garage and like always, IT'S FUN!!! Hmmmm everyone here is awesome: loucifer, Sandy, Daniel, and Sol!! woo! I hope we don't get the Swine Flu though! ahhhhhhh that would totally suck. Daniel just told me the swine flu reached Germany. uh oh be careful over there! That's okay, only on Tuesdays :) Okay well you guys are probably really bored with reading me go on, but that's okay. Daniel's awesome!!!! You better never forget this psycho American chick (but I am German too) Daniel!

(Pic added by Daniel)

Okay here I go myself :) I don't know how it happened but I somehow got Erin + Paul 2 write sth really short about me and the garage xD (in the case of Erin more, in Pauls case less ;P)... Anyways I hope you believe it's really them and not me making something up but their writing styles are somewhat different from mine so just believe it's them and not me making up that stuff ;P Actually I like the idea that others write something about me, then I need to write less :P I'll try 2 get some more people 2 write a little bit next week :)

So another week's over :O I really am getting kinda sad that there are only about 5 weeks in Indiana left, I'll miss all this guys here so much, especially (just to name some people ;D) Zac, Erin, Lauren, Janay, Rachel, Paul C, Paul K, Znika brothers, My whole music class, Sandy and Lou ofc, Little Lou and Matt and their friends, Ryan Wilson, anybody else that comes to the garage or came to it before, my whole music class, all the other people from my school (okay maybe I won't miss EVERYBODY there but pretty damn close ;P), Jeff and Kathrina and their drumset ofc 2 and just all the people that I met overhere and won't see again for at least a year (I already decided I'm saving money for a plane ticket next summer and will come and just stay w/ Sandy and Lou again, since they don't have any exchange students staying in the summer :P) :O

Anyways (I can't believe I just wrote 2 paragraphs w/out even starting the actual blog post yet :O).. umm okay my week: I really don't wanna say too much about school really, I mean it's the same old thing, grades are stable, mostly having fun and stuff is too easy ;P I got a kinda funny story from Friday, thouhg Idk if I should really tell it but anyways ... Paul in my music class (that would be Paul K not the one who wrote something...) saw a picture on my Ipod from a girl that had been at the garage b4 and he was like, dude do you have her number?! I was like yeah here you go and he started randomly texting her (btw it was Katherine Kolbert, the last time she was at the garage was prob early march (I think), so you could look a picture up in one of the posts ;P) and now he's gonna go on a date w/ her (For explanation, Paul's not really the guy that gets all the girls, to put it nicely ;P), I'm a master of hooking people up, oh yeah ;P (jk jk ;D) Idk if you think it really is funny, it might not be if you don't know Paul and Katherine, but I wrote it down now so deal w/ it ;P

So the weekend: Erin told you already what had happened on Friday :D : We, it was Zac, Lauren, me, Erin, Rachel and her boyfriend, wanted to go to the movies, but umm we kinda screwed up in picking a movie that started too early for Lauren to make it in time from her tennis tournament, then waiting for her too long so we would have missed the movie and then even failing in finding a movie rental store that would rent w/out a creditcard -.-" But hey, that's okay :P Anyways we then all went back to the garage to just do the usual stuff ;D we still had alot of fun though, walking to CVS, getting some Monster (a brand, yep this is an ad ;P jk jk) energy drinks, playing a game called "Would you rather?!" (Lauren brought it in ... funniest question was when Ryan Wilson made one up: Would you rather be German or have the swine flu?! (kk kinda insulting but ofc it was just fun) We all laughed like crazy :D) and Poker (No fun though, because Lauren and Erin had both no idea what they were doing xD)... People there that night pretty much were:

Paul and Erin, IT'S NOT WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE :P But such a nice shot I just HAD to upload it xD
Ryan Wilson, kid, that used to go to AHS, now he's homeschooled and lives around the area, I think he was in the blog before
Zac ofc :D
Lauren :) and me on the side :D

Later that night also Matt and Little Lou showed up, but I didn't get a picture...

SATURDAY

:O just the second day and so much writing already :O After driving lesson in the morning( a B :) parallel parking isn't that hard btw (we did it the first time that drive), from 5 times we did it I only screwed up once and hit the curb a little tiny bit ;)) Sandy, Lou, me, Zac and Erin (Lauren had tennis ofc and Idk about the others ...) went to a WWII reenactment :) That really, really was awesome, and as erin has said, you can't do that in a history class :) It were about 300-400 men, all dressed up in historical acurate uniforms (Okay that's something that would have been considered very inappropiate in Germany, they German uniforms had the swastika...), that built up an entire Army base (they all camped there in historiy tents for the whole weekend), and reenacted a battle of WWII, with tanks and everything that belongs to it (they even had 2 old planes up as "Spotter planes") :) It really, really was alot of fun and I don't think something like that could even be possible in Germany :O

Just some pictures:

Entrance to one of the allied camps


A German camp
Allied vehicle
Another German camp, this time even w/ some of the guys ;D
Me in"Wehrmachts"-uniform
"Secret Statepolice"
Erin, me and a "soldier" ;D
In the battle, I thought the smoke from one of the fake shells really make this pic look good :D

After that we, as Erin described, went to a all-u-can-eat buffet restaurant, that had very, very good food :D That pretty much was the Saturday, b4 the garage again ofc ;D

The same people (exactly the same: Lauren, Erin, Paul C, Zac, Ryan, me, Little Lou and his wife Missy (k she wasn't there Friday ;D) and Matt) again, so just one picture of Erin in her fancy dress she talked about xD

Don't look at my face pls stupid grin xD oh and the black thing in my hand is my cellphone...

Just one more thing about that night, we again went up to CVS for some energy drinks, but this time they were on sale (a 4-pack for a dollar 50), so we bought ALOT of them ;D I discovered, that drinking 4 of those really DOES NOT make your stomach feel well and somehow(even though I felt asleep as fast as usual) it makes you feel sooo tired the next day :P Anyways we watched some movies that night too, so it was fun :)

Sunday

Today was fun too ofc :D but really there's not much to tell it essentially just was Erin, Me, Zac, Paul C and Ryan hanging out, playing football and idk being cool I guess ;D So that's all what happened today, besides drivers ed (most riddic lesson ever, went there, 5 min of talking about how bad drinking and driving is (yep like I didn't know that before :/) and then 2 of those "scare the kids 2 death with horrifying accident pictures" movies :P But I guess it worked it really did scare me partly :O)

THE END (k 2 say it in cool txting language: Cu/l8/ttul/bb ;P)


P.S: ! Long stuff this time if you have fallen asleep by now, WAKE UP!!! ;D
