Well, believe it or not i have been here for a week. I must say that it feels like alot longer but i think i am finally getting into a routine. I woke up a little earlier on friday so i could get to school and find out what classroom my latin class was in. But I come to find out that it is the regular latin class that meets on Friday not Latein fur ausfanger. (Latin for Beginners) So, on Fridays i get to sleep in, which will be an excellent way to end the week . School was fine i guess. I understand very little of what is happening so that makes it very hard to concentrate and stay awake. Especially in math and phyics. They were boring in English so you can imagine how much fun they are in German. ;) After school i just came home and relaxed because i was completly exhausted from listening to German and from socccer practice the night before. I slept in a little bit on saturday and then i went to Gottigen to visit my friend Phillipp who was an exchnage student to FCHS my Junior year. We walked around Gottigen and did alot of the tourist things. Gottigen kinda reminds me of Fort Collins. Then we got some lunch-I ordered and paid on my own. I was very proud of this.

Click on that link to see some pics from my trip and some pictures of my town. Then i came home and Phillip (my host brother) was having alot of people over to watch Germany play Ireland in the Euro Cup. I must say that i felt very european sitting around watching soccer and drinking a beer. They were all really nice people and very patient with my German. Plus most of them speak perfect english. Then we went to the local bar/hangout/club-which turns in to Disco on the weekends. I saw some people from my soccer team and school so i talked to them a little and then we danced for a while. Everyone was like "let me see your American moves" so i did my best to represent us well but i cant promise anything.
Well its raining again but Me, my host dad, brother and Luis-the other exchange student are going to Kassel to do some sight seeing. So, i will let you know how that goes. Keep the comments coming and I hope everyone is doing well and enjoying the end of summer.
Much love
Tyler
