Not all can runs smouthly all the time, not all is always perfect. For the pass few weeks the tention in the house had increased from both my side and my hosts. Most of you know that I've never felt realy comfortable with my hosts since I've been here. I told myself to give it time and that's what I did in the end it caught up to me and it was not the best idea. I held it in until I could take no more. And ever did they talk with me either. So tuesday everything collapsed infront of me. [View Full Entry]

It took about 8 hours or so we got there at 9 there next morning. The hotel was aweful for those who might have an idea of the conditions of most hotels in Hampton Beach N.H well it was bad. But I guess it was a youth hostile we where staying in it still wasn't the best. The whole place was freezing and it was [View Full Entry]

The air last night was so cold that it actually smelled like winter is near by. Today my plan had been to go to Phantasialand with Beatrice and 2 other friends, but yesterday at the last mintue Beatrice called me and told me some sad news that one of the girl's grandfather had passed away so she wouldn't be able to come with us so it was preferable to go [View Full Entry]

Since friday I've been in holidays from school. That means monday morning I will not have to get and at 6:30 am but actually get to sleep in sounds good to me. I like the idea alot. The days are getting shorter and it is harder and harder in the morning to get up befor the sun is up. Although every school day feels like a holiday since I haven't been able to fallow much in class and often times classes are cancelled and I get to go home early or even finishing at 1:05 p.m is wonderful to me that [View Full Entry]

So I figured I would go monday morning when I have my free period at school. Turns [View Full Entry]
