I hope you don't mind

Facts:

- it's 9.21 p.m.

- 48°F / 8,8°C

And I'll start of how I did the last few times: It gets freaking cold here!
I never thought I'll need my warm germany jacket I was wearing in the past winter, but I do wear it now. So it is really cold. In the morning we have frost on top of the roofs, too.
So believe me, it is cold.

Last time I posted s.t. is a while ago and a lot stuff happend (would be boring if not, wouldn't it?).
I had my first thanksgiving.
And it is like in the movies. It's all about food. We basically ate all day. Idk how other exchange students expierenced their thanksgiving, but in texas it's just a chance to gain weight by eating a lot of food (and turkey, of course).
So at first we went to my grandma (daddy's), and all my cousins were there and we had a little pre-thanksgiving. Sydney got her braces a day before, so all she ate was oatmeal and she tried to eat chilli (never attend s.o who just got braces, if you can't see people chew with an open mouth without freaking out [I was freaking out in my head. :D]. ).
I had a lots of fun with all my cousins, and inthe next morning we left to go to my mom's grandma.
They live like you expect a texan to live. They have a huge "yard" and a house like you think a house in texas will look like.
so as I woke up on November  the 24th I heard my grandma, a friend of her, and my mom in the kitchen getting the turkey ready.
I ate a bagel (first american bagel. A hot raisin, cinnamon bagel with a little bit butter. yummy) and got dressed. We started eating around lunch time...


...and finished the left overs 3 days later. ;D
I felt like I had a food baby in my stomach, and Jordy, Syd, and me felt so guilty and decided to run, and burn some calories.
It helped, I felt much better after it: ;D
But I still like thanksgiving, even if you just feel like a lil fatty, cause all you did was eating.
We stayed till saturday at her house, and my grandma has the evilest dog alife. It's a little chihuahua, called "Tinzel", and she's such a little b*tch, I swear. She layed down on the couch one evening, and Avery moved her arm, and this devil-dog freaked out and bit Avery.
I don't like this dog, she's bi-polar, and grandma treat her like a queen.

Well after we left we went to the football game (first playoff game :)) Lp vs. Katy and we won.
Jordy stayed the whole thanksgiving break (a whole week, thank God, I really needed that break.) and we had so much fun.



and we went to the movies and Jordy, Syd, and me saw breaking dawn (it actually isn't that bad I thought it will be, but the books are still better. So read them before the movies steal all your ideas how the twilight world looks like.) and Jordy already saw the movie. Alright I've to tell you this story, she saw it with some of her college friends, and this one guy, Michael, said following:

Whenever Michael is in a bad mood he goes to Mc's and eats this 12 pack nuggets, because it puts him in a really good mood.
Jordy, two of her friends and Michael are sitting in the movies, and Bella is about to die, cause she just got her baby and it kinda killed her. It's like the most emotional moment in the whole movie and everybody holds its breathe, because noone wants her to die.
Michael leans over to Jordy and says: I think she needs a nugget.
And Jordy bust out laughing, and everybody looks at her like: How can you laugh in this moment?


I think it's hilarious.
So I had a lot of fun thanksgiving break, and it just got better after, because the monday after thanksgiving break we had soccer tryouts for 3 days, and everyone who talked to me in the last 2 weeks already know that I made the JV team (yaaay). But I was so scared before every cut, cause Jordan and German cut the first people on tuesday, and than the last cut was wednesday after tryouts, and I was so scared to don't make it. Because I didn't know whatelse to do.
But I made it in the JV team ( Varsity comes over Junior Varsity, in Varsity are all the really good players, who most likely get a scholar ship for a college cause of soccer. And in JV are people who are good, but not as amazing as the Varsity members are. Well i made JV, and never played before. So I'm proud. :) ).
Now I've practice every day after school till 5:00. But I like my team, and I think this season will be so much fun, even if it's freaking col outside, and we're in texas so we play outside.


A week or two ago we good a german shepperd puppy. His name is beau, he's really cute, but the first days were hell.
Because he sleeps in Syd's and my room, and he cried the WHOLE night, and it wasn't a sweet cry it was very annoying.
But we figured out to play with him before we go to bed, and put a blanket over his thing where he sleeps in.
Well now we've fatty Callie, crazy Max, and little beau (who will get big very fast. Me and Syd went to see him since he was 3 days old. And he already grew so much).




Well I think that's all.
Jordy, mom, and my birthday party is this saturday (Isn't it bad luck if you celebrate your birthday too early? I always thought so, but Syd said she hasn't heard about that her whole life. ...)
I hope yall are doing good, and miss me a bit. (My hair finally starts growing ;) )
