HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOME!! *-*

OHHHHHH my gosh guys I'm home!!!! I still can't imagine!!!! :o

So the flights were actually really good!!! Wee, I was so nervous before remember but then, I took a sleeping pill and I got sooooo tired that I just slept the whole flight basically!!!! :D Awesome! And I didn't feel sick AT ALL!! :)
Julian, Monika and I chatted and we had lots of fun! Even though it is quite weird to be in a German speaking country now cause I totally  got used to the English!!!

The "big hugging" came in Hamburg after we got our bags. Oh gosh it was great Lea and I were screaming and just soooo happy!! And dad of course. And then, suddenly, I heard a loud noise behind me and someone hugged me from the back. AND IT WAS MALIN!!!!! :) Oh gosh she is sooo amazing she came to the aiport from new muenster!!! :) LOVEYOU!
We were sooo happy!!!

After a 1,5 hour drive which was weird because you got closer and closer to your hometown. As soon as we drove into our driveway I jumped out of the car because I saw a whole bunch of people in the back of the garden!!!!!! My friends made a big sign saying "welcome back" and they prepared a whole table with German food, Pretzles, Bread, Chocolate, fruit and cake *-*
We all screamed and had like an hour of hugging and crying! Well I couldnt really cry cause I was too happy  :D We sat there and talked and laughed and they are awesome....they have planned that for a week!

Gosh it feels sooo weird I am sitting in my TOTALLY MESSY room right now and I just feel dizzy and weird but great!! :)

My father kinda renewed my room so there is sooooo much stuff I have to work on that :O

And the jet lag got me cause I'm not tired at all cause it would normally be like 4 pm :D



Ohhhh and before I forhet this morning, we took family photos!!! :) That was awesome because now I have some beautiful pictures!!!

I will miss them so much!

Vanessa left today at 4 and I went to the airport...me and some other internationals just hugged each other the whole time because the realization that this awesome year is over now, made us pretty nostalgic.

So Vanessa is the cutest friend ever, SHE MADE A PHOTOALBUM for me !!!!! :O

My packing is already pretty much done so the excitement grows and the nervousness as well ...

The tonight we had my goodbye dinner and they bought me a super nice chocolate cake!!!! Thank you!!!

Afterwards Janice and I went for a nice paddle because it was a lovely night!!!!! And the sun was just about to set so we watched it :) sooooo nice !!!!!


Oh well, my next post will probably be around how people change throughout the year and what I learned from this experience.

At night, I went over to Vanessa's house for a sleepover and we went for a biiiig walk like 2.5 hours!!!
Them we watched movies the whole night and we are already soooo nervous about flying so we couldn't sleep a minute!
We just stated up all night and got up around 10 to go to school and get our report cards!!! Then we got to say goodbye to Adriana, linn, Anna, kirsten and some teachers!!! :( so sad!!!

Afterwards we went to Starbucks with Alonso and tool the bus to the mall, to take another bus to royston.

Great days with Baylee and Brayden! *_*

Hi everyone!

On Sunday, after sleeping in, I met my weight training friend Brayden downtown and we hung out for a couple of hours. It was really fun he is hilarious!!! :D We went to Dairy Queen for some Ice cream and chatted forever :)
Then,yesterday, I had an awesome day with my friend Baylee! I picked her up in Comox around 11.30 and we went to the MArina, remember she has a sailing boat, so we took pictures there. Our little shoot expended though because we had the idea to go on the pier and then some places else :)
It was sooo much fun!! After some hours we got tired so we went downtown for a Frozen Yogurt and met a friend from creative writing in that cafe :D

After resting a bit we went to the mall and looked around and then Baylees mom picked us up because we were kinda tired!! So we sat down in her basement and watched a couple of episodes of" Once upon a time"- OMG this show is so awesome i love it!!! Highly recommended guys! Spooky funny and mysterious!! A little cheesy, too but i love it :)

Awesome days in Vancouver, Shakespeare and another perspective :)

Hey guys I'm back from the big city :)

We left on Friday morning to catch the ferry from nanaimo and we were in van after some complications ) the car not fitting on the ferry and Janice Pau and I just walking on ! :) so we three were there around noon, ken came 2 hours later!

Because we three didn't have a car we took the city bus which was a quite interesting ride :) there were a loooot of weird people on the bus and there was a skateboard protest so it took us an hour to get downtown!!! >.<

We had some lunch and just walked a bit until ken picked us up and went to the nail salon with us ;D well he just dropped us off there so that we could get a nice pedicure :) awesome!!

After that we went to the hotel and had our showers to get ready for the Shakespeare play.
But first, we had dinner in a reaaaally nice restaurant , Italian kitchen, with view over te city ! Great!!! :)

I had some gluten free pasta ;)
And theeeen we got a driver(!!!!!!) and he drove us over to bard on the beach to see the play twelfth night :)

It was a reeeally funny play we all really enjoyed it! And I understood a lot which made me quite happy :D I mean its Shakespeare !!!!!

-----super cool fact: we had a rainshower in the hotel omg that was awesome!!!-----

So Saturday morning we rent bikes And had a small tour to Granville island, where we bought some cherries and sat down to watch the people. The atmosphere was amazing! I love it there!!!!
Then we rode a little along English bay and found an oikos car that gave yogurt out for free so we got one :))

Afterwards, they dropped Pau and me off at the aquarium to meet my fiend Baylee who happened to be in van too!!!! *_* I love her she's great :)
The aquarium is really great and the beast thing was we watched the beluga whale show! They are soooo cute *_* :)

We took the ferry at 5.20 and were home at night :)

We had a great little trip thank you!!!!

Xoxo maddy
