I feel like a preschooler. But a happy one.

I think i've finally gotten the whole time-telling thing down. Mostly because of Sabrina.

Example of this:
Me: uggghhkkk how much longer until school's over?!
Sabrina:I don't know, why don't you tell me? *innocent smile*
Me: Augh!
Sabrina: The hard way.
Me: um... um... um...
Sabrina: Are you going to have this dramatic pause every time someone asks you for the time.
Me: Zeit existist nicht. *my spelling is off, i know*
Sabrina: Time!
Me: Um.... swei or zehn *picking the easy option*
Sabrina: uh-huh. and?
Me: zehn nach swei.
Sabrina: YES!

so now i'm working on my accent. and despite the dramatic pause, i'm really enjoying being able to do this. It's not like French class, where i dread speaking cuz the teacher is SO EVIL, but i'm always so euphoriatic (i know that's not a word) when i'm speaking German. and i'm super quiet in all my classes, except that one. i just love talking in German, even though i'm saying like, two-word answers.
Sabrina said that at the rate i'm going, i might be able to take the AP test in German. that would be sooooo great!!

And AP testing, about that, in French- ughk. we have to take a practice one for the final. even though i'm in FRENCH FOUR. not AP FRENCH! there's a distinction. i know it, everyone knows it, except the teacher.

Culture points are due tomorrow :) usually, people watch 2 movies and write a 1 page review.
I wrote a 40 page book about a german guy, Franky, visiting France.
I can't wait to see her face...

and German school's on saturday!!!! <3

College. Brilliant ideas.

Right. It's been a while. And that's beacuse i lost the URL and besides, my friends who read don't actually leave comments so i felt a little unloved.
anyways.
i was always thinking, "i'd like to go to USF for college and then harvard for med school. and then i'll get a job at a hopsital in germany'
Brilliant idea hit me, don't ask why i didn't think of it before.
I now want to go to college in Germany. Problem is, do you know how difficult it is to research this? I just started german school an amazing.... two weeks ago.
So it's a little..... far out there. But i figure, passion + determination = possible? not sure, but i can't stand the thought of having to wait eight years until i can live in Germany. Everything i did before then would feel so temporary. and i'm, of course, thinking about the whole 'and if i meet a guy? I'd leave him for germany, but i'd feel so bad' thing. knowing me, and my seriousness, you can imagine how much i've thought about this.
And right now i should be going to do APUSH homework, cuz i have dance class in like.... an hour. and a zillion pages of history to do. augh.

positive note, i decided that Berlin, Neumunster, or somewhere in that vicinity, is my dream spot for college. anyone care? no, no, didn't think so. hahaha.
