European Fashion = Hamburg

Last Sunday after writing that glorious blog.. I went to eat dinner at our friend Nicola's it was Homemade mac & cheese, chicken strips, and some cucumbers, and before that was veggies and dip.. it was soo good  :] definite props to her.
October 25th- was class.. like usual.. except we got our homework assignments.. yay.. I am presenting next week Monday on the Lingo of Pro-Choice and Pro-Life views of abortion and the messages they portray.. I am excited :) and then we have to write a 10 page paper.. not to bad.. all should be okay.
OO and something that totally made my day.. was that I purchased FLOSS.. seeing as I was out of the floss that I had brought.. did you know that flossing atleast once a day adds 5 years to your life.. woot for longer lives :)
Then I will say I am proud of Kayte and I we actually had the first of many Meditation Mondays :) it was great! We found Yoga for dummies Part One.. called the daily dozen.. and we did them all.. soo if any of you want to join us.. lol.. they can be found on the internet :) and guess what is FREE.. haha the best kind of exercise.. even tho I think I am slightly obsessed.. but anyways it was a great work out.. and we deff both felt it the next day.. :)
October 26th Tuesday- I purchased the tickets for Steph and I to make our journey to Hamburg :) I talked to my mom.. had my tutoring session.. we recieved our possible outline.. and then after that Paul made stew again.. and we ate that. and we played UNO.. it was fun :) and then i worked out again... and crawled into bed and called it a night :)
October 27th Wednesday- was a very busy day... I had to wake up early for my tutorial which was fun.. we went over who was gonna do the presentation of what we talked about in class for the rest of the classes.. so it was nice.. i go on Nov 29th .. and then we had conversation class and we talked about vacations.. only German .. if we speak English we have to bring in Candy.. :) haha.. It looks like its gonna be only German :) That is fine by me.. I love this language!
Then it was Volleyball time :} we actually ran drills and had a warm-up and the last 20 min was play. but man it was tough.. I realized that I am slow and out of shape this will help me get back into shape.. and hopefully lose the weight that I want to :} yaya!!
Anyways October 28thThursday- had my tutoring.. and then left for hamburg with Steph.. all was going well until we stopped and they announced there was an accident on the tracks with a person.. I have no idea what actually happened but I'm not sure that I really want to know.. uk? anyways we eventually made it there.. around the time we were oringinally supposed to.. I have officially met the Fuchs family.. or should I say Steph's Weekend family.. or German Family.. she has so many lol :] got to love her tho!  Well that night we went to champs.. and I had a Crispy Chicken Ceaser Salad Burger, Ik isn't that a long name, but it was soooo good :) and that was that!

October 29th- Friday we woke up and the girls gave me a tour of Hamburg it is quite pretty... for those of you who don't know Hamburg is a huge city, but the nice thing about this city is that you can't tell how big it really is.  I will say it is one of my favorite Large cities, seeing as I am more of a small town girl near the city not in it!  OO i forgot before the tour of the city we carved PUMPKINS! I was sooo pumped.. I was sad that I was going to miss that.. but LOOK I didn't .. ain't it cute.. its a witch with a bat and a spider haha I LOVE HALLOWEEN!! <3
Then later that night we went to a cocktail bar- which turned out to be a gay bar/cafe thing, which was cool. and then we hit up the Kietes(?) or the Red light district... This was quite an experience, fun to say the least :) We hit up a club and danced for a while.. then my feet and steph's feet were in pain so we bailed and headed back home to got to bed!
October 30th Saturday.. we woke up and ate some breakfast.. we had breakfast everyday and it was always so good :) yumm! Then we hit the town to go shopping and this is where my new fashion comes in. I now own a Coat and some Boots I love them :] they were a good buy it took me a while to find them, like usual haha.. nothing new there.  Then we went back home and made some pizza and got ready for the halloween party at Patrick's which was a success I may add.  I went as a Hippie and Steph was a Pirate, Chris was a Zombie, and Sarah Fuchs was cat women! We all looked pretty good, if I do say so.  Anyways at this party we danced and drank and I spoke only German after I had a couple of drinks in me.  Its funny how that happens, I guess its because I don't over analyze everything I try to say, and I just say it, all points aside it was fun :] thanks Patrick! We made it back home at like 4:30 am So it was a good night!
October 31st-Happy Halloween was mainly spent on riding the trains home to Marburg and then just unpacking and getting a notice in my mailbox telling me I have a Package and waiting for the bar to open to go get it and guess what.. It never freakin' opend UGH. So now I have to wait until Wednesday to get my package, the funny thing is I have no idea who its from or what it is, so I am excited/scared haha :P oh well
NOVEMBER 1st! I have been here officially for two months.. man time flies by!
Again seeing as it was Monday I had Meditation Monday with Kayte again and then we had eggs in a hole and some carrots for dinner healthy right?? haha kinda i guess.  Then I spent the rest of the night going between doing some hw and taking a break playing tetris with Alex, which was a good break because you can only look at ads for or against abortion for so long before you start to feel sick, well at least in my case.
And today November 2nd- Tuesday I have already woken up and ran for 17 min.. WITHOUT MUSIC i never do that, but my ipod died and I needed to work out so I did it so I am proud of myself :] yay! Now I am going to do some journaling, which is much needed and then showering and getting ready for the rest of the day!
Love you all and I hope you all had a fantabulous Halloween and weekend.. Its a great weekend :]
