Hi everyone. I'm sorry I haven't posted for two weeks. I was a little sick two weeks ago on tuesday, but after some sleep and alphabet noodle soup I quickly recovered. Alphabet noodle soup heals all.
Last weekend I went shopping with the Droste's on Saturday (the 27th of August), I tried on a dirndl (which is a traditional German dress, the kind girls wear for Oktoberfest). I didn't buy it or take any pictures because I didn't like the colors but I'm going to get one that I like and I will post pictures once I get it.
(A dirndl.)
On the 26 I went with Susanne and Manfred to the annual flea market in the city. Which was large and very crowded. I didn't buy anything, but Susanne got some new scarves.
I was here a month on the 5th, and we had a little cookout to celebrate.
Over this weekend we went to Manfred's parents house, where we slept in an old barn.
It was fixed up, so there are two little rooms up in the loft where hay would be stored if it was still used for animals and such. And they are heated, which was very nice. Birte and I shared on room, the window on the far right is a part of it and Susanne and Manfred had the on with the window on the far left next to the little door.
Manfred's mother seemed surprised at how small I am, I'm pretty sure she expected me to be taller and heavier.
I only get internet there either from inside Manfreds brother's house or right outside it.
I met Manfred's parents, his brother Oliver and his wife Miriam and their daughters, I can't remember their oldest daughter's name but they have the most adorable baby, Luisa. We went to Susanne parents and we went to Manfreds sister's house, where Birte and I play with play-doh with his nephews.
I also met Susanne's grandmother and her aunt. She gave Birte and I both 5€, I would have refused or tried to but I didn't know how.
In other news my backpack started falling apart, I plan to get a new one sometime this week.
I also need to get money because I can't use my credit card most places.
And I think that's all for now.
Here's a current picture of me, you probably didn't notice but I don't have to wear my retainer during the day any more. I've also been thinking about getting my haircut but I'll probably wait until I'm back in america and can tell the stylist how I want it. Also making conversation with a stylist is awkward enough when you speak the same language.
I'm going to try to post at least weekly. Love you all.Tschüss
