Catching up, homecoming, halloween etc.

Hello!
I've totally forgotten about this blog... It's seriously the most difficult thing to start doing in here if I even remember that I ever created a blog.. But now I have something to say, pictures to put here, etc. I'm gonna write this, and not to do a video blog, for some reason. ANYWAY. I've been doing pretty well, this place definitely feels like home and it's seriously so hard to imagine going home anytime soon. It's gonna be very hard to leave in June, i can feel it already.

Here are some pictures from the ROADTRIP!! :) I forgot to put them here! Enjoy!


Well, you know, halloween coming up!

Nashville, Tennessee!

Caramel apple in Nashville

Missouri!

in Minnesota!!

Somewhere in America

St. Louis

Chicago BABY!!


 Awesome memories, I spoke quite a long time about that roadtrip in my previous video blog post. Go check it out! :)) Anyway, now i've had another AFS meeting, we carved pumpkins! It was great! I love my roundtable group. This is my vampire bat :)




I was also at a Brad Paisley concert, but actually it was Scotty McCreery / The Band Perry / Brad Paisley concert, which was pretty cool! All country music :)

Now I've noticed that halloween is definitely coming .... Pumpkins everywhere... orange.. men dressed as wonderwomen ... fake spiders..... skulls..... anyway, you get the point. They even sell coffee in starbucks (and everywhere else) called pumpkin spice latte. It's very good.

ALSO I was at my school's homecoming yesterday! It was fun, i went there with a big group of people.. :) it was different than I thought, but fun! We started getting ready about 4-5 hours before it started :D We left to take pictures and then to dinner! I ate so much hummus during dinner that I was really full by the time we had to leave to homecoming :D My shoes were KILLING me, I had these gold , very high heels. I took them off pretty soon after entering school so i could dance :D The homecoming was at my school's campus and they played , for some reason, a lot of hip hop. It was cool but I couldn't dance to that music with my dress :D But of course after that they played gangnam style, sexy and i know it etc.. It lasted about 3 hours, which was a pretty short time. After that we went to eat pancakes around 12 o'clock at night. :)


Me and my good friend from france :)

With my host sister!! :)


at school !

 
 There ya go :) Now I can't think of much else to say.. Comment, ask questions, critique! :)
ps. This is just awesome, I'm watching Men In Black II on tv and i just noticed that The Dark Knight (my favorite movie of all time :D) is coming NEXT! AWESOME. Yea, I get excited about these kind of things... I've actually been to the movies a lot here. It's pretty cool!
pps. I've been here almost three months now, THREE!! Whaaat. Prepare yourselves future exchange students AGAIN, really, time goes by really fast. It's crazy!

Byebye :)

ROADTRIP

Hello!
Very very sorry about the length again... :D



Some things I forgot to say AGAIN:

- People in Tennessee have an amazing accent, I love it. I call it the Elvis accent, because Elvis had a cool accent and he was from Tennessee :D

- Brad Paisley concert is coming up on the 17th!!

- I met A LOT of new people on the way. It was exhausting, because I know I'll never gonna see most of them again so I kinda felt like why to bother... So prepare yourselves future exchange students :D

- There are a lot of raccoons in the midwest. Just saying.

- I also went to taco bell! Chicken burrito <3

- I'm gonna skype with my friends and my mom on Sunday :) First time with my friends, second time with my mom. Last time I skyped with my mom was a month ago. I think that's a good way to do it, once a month.. :)
