Summer uniform

Hey ho!
Long time no see!
New zealand is amazing!!
I cant say more its incredible! I think Oskar definatly has to go on an exchange to new zealand and to the same college!! Its so beautiful here. I have so many friends. im so happy. And when i think of me being here for 2 months already i think its far to less time. 1 year maybe sounds long, but people. its too short for an exchange. The time runs so fast when you enjoy your life!
However. This week wasnt that interesting.

Monday:
Monday was school, normal. All good. It was okay. school starts to get interesting. We are doing more work. For example i have to finish my connectives work until next friday and i only have 2 out of 4 paragraphs yet. haha ill do it today, dont worry Mutti :D!

Tuesday:
On tuesday i went home with shayla. She lives far out in the country and she and her dad have about 1.8 thousand sheep and 400 bulls or something. incredible. they so much land. its so big. their house their garden. they have 6 dogs and 2 cats. and so many little cute lambs uuugh <3 :))!!!
On tuesday afternoon i stayed the night at shaylas place because on wednesday morning we were going to go skiing with her "brother" ben (they've known each other like i know rabea) and her dad colin!
So we took a shower and went streight to bed.

Wednesday:
WE HAD TO GET UP AT 4:30AM BECAUSE WE HAD TO LEAVE THE HOUSE AT 5AM.
Okay. we were really tired though. of course we were sleeping in the car. We, that are Shayla, her dad Colin, Ben her nearly brother and me. We drove around 4h all together. After 2 and a half we stopped at mc donalds and had breakfast :)! Tasty! We went skiing on a beautiful mountain. Our ski area's name was taupo. It was incredible, so amazing and beautiful! it looked like a dream. the land around the mountain was green and brown and then the mountain, BAM white ! So beautiful!
After 5h of driving and sleeping, eating and going to the toilet. after we lend our skiing gear we finally were on top of the mountain. it was warm. funny as. i was wearing fleece and jumpers and it was way to warm haha! The mountain was amazing, but the snow was...shit. sorry it was either icy or it was slushy snow. but no normal powder skiing snow. It was okay though. i really enjoyed it. At lunch Ben met his sister Alice and i met Mrs Ogilvie who was on the mountain for the international skitrip. So of yourse i met Ellen and Klaara the other international students. The second half of the day i skied around with ellen and klaara. It was pretty much fun.
At 4pm we had to bring our skiing gear back and ben, colin shayla and me met at the truck. we had a short tea and some muffins and cockies. Lovely :)! Then we drove back, 4h first to palmerston to pick bens sister up and then to mc donalds again for dinner. We were home around 10:30pm. We just wanted to go to bed so we quickly took a shower and fall into sleep after 2min.

Thursday:
We had to get up at 6:30am to catch the bus to school. it was a nice skiing day but my legs were really sore though. I was quite tired in school and me, jared and eden slept in drama because we had a study period. (study periods are pretty much: having fun with friends, talking and making snap chats)

Friday:
On friday night i had a birthday party at my friends house. but before i went there Madeleine Ian lily and me had a little party at our house. Yesterday was a big event in japan. an event for the moon i think :) SO everybody invited friends over who brought some food. Then we had a big dinner. it was lovely and so much fun. i was playing the piano and lily and me danced haha! We have so much food left though! After the dinner madeleine drop me at annies house and we had an amazing birthday party. we were around 15 people and the living room was full. We had a little flashing light that totally cracked me up haha! At 11pm we were really tired from dancing and cooking and fell asleep on a big bed that was out of 10 mattresses. It was so much fun though.

Saturday:
So today is saturday. i had pancakes for breakfast and i came home around 2 hours ago. Im a bit tired and im drinking my 3rd tea at the moment. At 1pm ill start doing my english connectives. Its an essay about 4 different texts who have to be connected by the topic: man's incredible will to survive. Its quite interesting but i cant be bothered. ill do it anyways. it all good.

I hope you are good too. i miss you all very much. i wrote some letters though. i think they take about 1 and a half week to come from new zealand to germany :))

first day of spring

Hey hey hey
How are you guys. Im super duper fine. everything is perfect, i'm fully enjoying my time!
Last week was interesting. We had mofty day, its a day when you dont have to wear school uniform. everybody just wears whatever they want to. It was really interesting to see what people look like in normal clothes.
Lily and me went to our neighbor Richard to see the little lambs. sooooo cuuuuteee. They sooo small and cute and adorable and lovely uuugh !!!
My family also bought a piano. not just for me, lily and ian want to learn how to play the piano, and ill teach them. Will be so much fun, i hope!! Lily is already learning her favourite song: Amelie.
I got a package, aha aha aha a package, with lollies. so many lollies. German lollies. Haribo, chocolate, ahoi brause, maoam, Kuh Muhs and Nimm2!! FROM PAUL!! I miss him. it was always nice hanging with him, and we have the same name haha! Thank you sooo much :))!!

As i already said, not long ago there was the first day of spring. 1st september. It wasnt special though, but now i know why most new zealanders dont like spring. ITS SO WINDY! i mean really windy, the houses are out of wood and so you can here the wind and feel the house moving and stuff! its creepy and a bit scary. The wind is about 120km/h fast. And when lily and me walk back from school we walk really slow and careful.

My school is superb. Im happy that i chose Wairarapa College. So many nice and friendly people! In the beginning Drama was really boring and i though of changing classes, but its getting better :) We have a roll-play named: Not even a sparrow. Its interesting. I found many friends in my drama class who i can hang with at interval or lunch :)
Steph invited me to her birthday in November :)

Today is Wednesday. At lunch there was the sgn in for the summer sports. I signed in for Volleyball with Laura, maria and ( Sjaan (i think) and Laura Maria, Kayelle Elena and Ata also signed in for Social Tennis. The difference between social tennis and regional tennis is that regional tennis is more competitive than social tennis. Social tennis is just for having fun and playing tennis with your friends.
Kane and me also signed in as a team for regional tennis. Haha i hope i can still play tennis. I played it ages ago and im not sure if im good at it. hahahah!


WEEKEND
on Saturday i had dance rehearsals from 10am to 3pm. Really exhausting but funny and it was nice to dance after a long time. Lily and me have a quite important roll in the performance. Lily is a girl and im her Angel.... to be continued :)
On sunday i went to wellington on the train to see my german friends. I really missed them and it was good to see them again. We spend time together until 3pm. Then Moritz had sport activities and Salome had to go home, she felt a bit sick. Mattes and me visited his family. They had a big Rugby game and afterwards we went to his school and stuff. He lives like 2 min away from the beach. really cool.
It was quite nice seeing my friend again. On the way home i met two of my new New Zealand friends, Megan and Cael :)) They are so lovely!
