Culinary delights
With such appetising names as 'fleisch küchen' - meat cakes - how could you resist?? Well, actually, they taste quite good. Other foods which I never would have eaten at home include: onions (no by themselves, ofcourse), mushrooms, duck, 'bambi', goose knudel. I also have reconnected with my gastromic past regarding 'liber wurst'.... ja, ja, schmeckt gut.
There was something else I wanted to tell you all. Oh yes. I have participated in 'group sponsored epileptic fit' known as aerobics. Quite amusing...it involded sticks the length of your arm. I had to resist the urge to have light-saber battles in manner of Star Wars. I also played this version of baseball in Sport, without bats or mits, instead a pink bouncy ball and road-hats. I had no idea what it was or how to play until I saw the first girl fling the ball and then proceed through these 'tasks' to get to a base. I was no help to my team as was doubled over with laughter. I don't think the teacher appreciated my opinion of her rather creative variation of the sport.
The mantra here at the moment seems to be 'Spring is just around the corner'; the snow is pretty much all melted away and it is light from about 6:30am until 6.45pm isch. AHHH!! I am always doing that! I am so used to writing 'ish' with 'c' - the German way. eg, Englisch, Deutsch, Spanisch, etc. Ah yes, I have made progress on the friends front: I have friends in the Grade 12 engliSCH classes, Franzie and Felie (identical twins) and the Brasilian exchange students, and Satchko, the Japanese exchange group (yes, we have our own exchange posse going on). I went out on Thursday, Friday AND Saturday last week (yes, indeed I have outdone myself) and am now quite exhusted. Also go the fright of my life when the snow from the roof came crashing down!
Amo, with the name tags (still cool despite typo...) how'd they spell your name? Alex, how's Uni going? Nathaniel....well, remember to use your inside voice, please! hehehe. Cori, hope alles ist in Ordnung. Mum and Dad, yeah well, natürlich, I miss youse.
Well, I go skiing next week (holidays yet again) IN SWITZERLAND!!!!!! woot for me. I'll tell you how it all went.
Love, ALicia
