So I was woken today to have breakfast with my hostfamily, but afterwards I laid down a little to rest. Then I got up cleaned my room, washed my clothes and had a long call with Leonie. For supper we had pork loin and they were good although a little fatty every now and then. The rest of the day I’ll spend playing card games and watching some shows.

Today is quite a long day. I got up at 9, which is very early for me. So the day took a long time since it wasn’t eventful at all. I played some games with Moritz but other than that nothing really happened. But i was screamed at for putting a pizza in the oven wrongly, but we fixed it so now the pizza is safe. Afterwards we played some games which was fun.

So school was pretty chill today since it was only a half day, which meant 25 minute classes. After school I went to Publix just to wander around the aisles and see what they have. I am going to make Schnitzel for my host parents today, I hope they like it. So after lunch i think Hazel really liked it. We also decorated the table for Monday’s Rotary meeting. Then Hazel and I played games like Cribbage and Skip-bo.

So today was my third and final day off school due to hurricane Michael. I got up really late and went straight to my final workout before a 4 days break. After that I spent the day as usual watching series. Then I started playing Overwatch with Moritz, but then my host parents called me, so I had to stop. We went to Publix and got some supplies for the next days. Sadly, I have to go to school tomorrow and I got an email of my application telling I wasn’t getting the job. SO overall a fun day!

So today was my second day off. I slept in way too long but I wanted to so I’m ready for the Assessment Center I had to do for my application. So good things first I’ve done it but I totally failed. For the math problems I had way too less time and for reading problems I had way too much time. Good thing I was able to blow off some steam in the gym. The rest of the day was very quiet and nothing really happened. But I’m going to prepare the stuff I need so I might be able to play baseball, even though when I told my host dad he said it was a waste of time. Thanks for believing in me!

Today was a very quiet day, since I had no school. I was able to sleep in, make my workout, bake cookies and just relax. I noticed that my body is getting tired, so I decided to take 4 days off after this week’s workout. Today, there were no signs of the hurricane but it is supposed to hit us tomorrow.

So school was fun today I guess. I mean it was pretty much the same as every day but they told us that school will be closed for tuesday and wednesday because of an incoming hurricane. Everyone seemed happy and there is no risk for me so I basically have 2 free days. That’s what I did today, I just enjoyed the day knowing I won’t have school tomorrow.

So this sunday started out kind of sad since I knew the concert was over and nothing similar will be happening in the next months. Still, I dragged myself to the gym even though it took me a little long. But it was good I went because it really lifted my mood. Then I had a very long talk with my girlfriend, which really helped me gaining new energy for the next weeks. After that we had leftover supper, so we can start the next week with something fresh. Didn’t quite work out but we ate some of the leftovers. Now I’m using the rest of the day watching some shows on Netflix.

So today was the day. I‘ve been waiting to get to a Hoodie Allen concert for about 4 years now. Thanks to my host parents and Johanna and her boyfriend Chris. And i just wanna say it was one of the best days i had in a very long time. The concert was just amazing and I loved it even though i got a little rusty on lyrics over the years. I had Chick-fil-a for the first and maybe the last time for a long time. I had rolled up ice cream and it was sooo delicious. The only like „bad“ part was that we waited a long time until the show finally started. But we went to a shopping village before but it was just way too expensive stuff. So the show was amazing, I got a picture with Hoodie Allen, bought 2 Hoodie Allen Shirts, had Chick-fil-and just had a great day with two funny and welcoming people. At this point I really want to thank you and my host family again for this amazing opportunity you gave me. I just had a  blast ,for real (I‘m not just saying that because you might read this jojo)      🙂

Today was kind of an awkward day. It was a constant up and down. I woke up very sleepy and didn’t really enjoy the first 2 lessons. But then in Panther Hour i joined the Anime club, which was awesome. Then in weightlifting I failed to lift heavy weights that I thought i could do. After that I got called to the main office, where they told me I won’t be able to play football and I can only go to practice, but there isn’t much behind it if I can’t play. Even for baseball I have to turn in a crazy amount of stuff (all transcripts since 8th grade) and even then it’s not sure that I am able to compete. When I got home it got a little better since my new shoes arrived and they are gorgeous, but I was still pretty unmotivated for working out. I went anyways and it helped my mood. Additionally we had great food today (Philly cheesesteak). Then I played some cards with my host mom, so now I’m feeling better but I am dog-tired.
