More accidents.
busy busy busy. so much stuff has happened but i dunno what to write.
i fall off my bike. thats proberly the most exciting thing.its funny cuz iv already weritten about falling off my bike in one of my first posts. i can tell this will be a reacuuring theme in my exchange year haha. wish i had some photos... but my memory card doesnt seem to be working? i dunno why. but yeh so i guess you want to hear about it? well. i was biking along. then suddenly BAM! and i was on the curb. with some tooth missiong and my lip and chin grazed up. haahaha and thats all ill elaborate on that=)
Places i have fallen off my bike at.
1.Middle of some feild
2.Middle of the bus station
3.Middle of some swamp
4.By the tunnel just out of the city
Will add to this.
haahah but i guess its kinda expected.
Yeh im actally understanding alot more in class now which is kinda fun. Like i can sit there and concentrate really hard and i can pick out words. ahha that sounds pretty sad that i get kicks out of understanding whats going on hahhah. but seriously! try being an exchange student! like when people translate something funny. hahaah or say something formal as. aw its just funny. then ppl wonder why your laughing or smiling at something like *my mother doesnt allow me to whatever* it jus sounds real silly.
mmm just had the best dinner ever! famliy time=)had steak and baked potaotes... very kiwi. i had missed steak. think my iron levels will be crappy from not eating much meat here. man i could never be vegeterian..
oohhh we git a piano from the naghbours. so im gonna learn to play the piano so far iv been playig christmas carols everynight for Farmor and irgner the garderner who just turned 95. Still thriving! Hres a tank. But yeh by the time im fnished here ill be pro at piano. watch out rebecca! hahah.
