Wow hello everyone it has been some time since i have written anything! well i have found out that the saying 'time flys when your having fun' is a very true statement. i cannot believe that it is almost christmas. ive had my first snow, and sadly my only snow so far this year. It was very special because olivias family had come over for thanksgiving dinner and right as we started eating my host dad told me to turn around and i did seeing a huge flurry of snowflakes coming down, it was so beautiful and made for a very special thanksgiving. i think i may only have a white thanksgiving this year and no white christmas though sadly. haha as im trying to think back on what ive done i cant help but laugh at all the memories, our three pumpkin pies that turned out, well, almost right at least=P . i went on a class trip with to vienna, got to see the van gough (is that how you spell his name?) exhibition. It was a great time because it was the second time that ive hung out with my classmates outside of school. i really am loving school alot its a lot of fun and my classmates are all so nice. yesturday i had a soccer game with the langenlois team and when they were driving me back home they invited me out on saturday, which sadly im busy this time but another weekend i am hoping to go out with them which should be a lot of fun and will be my first time out with austrians. next weekend is the salzburg wochenende, and this weekend i get to go snowboarding with my family. Its very sad though that its christmas time too because i dont get to be home with everybody and its also the three weeks that our oldies (the exchange kids from australia) are here, we get new ones in febuary but its just hard to let go to these amazing friends ive made especially because there are 5 oldies around me right now and there are no newbies coming to this area. i am fortunate though because i did end up getting an Österreich card so i can travel austria for free on the train´s. well so much more than this has happened i know but im sorry i just cant type it all out for you! thinking of all of you and wishing i could see you in the christmas season!
