#31 Spirit Week, End of first semester & Finals

Hey guys,

I’m sorry I didn’t write a blog post last week but I was very busy with studying for finals. Fortunately, I am done know and ended my classes with pretty good grades.

On one hand I am glad that all the school stress is over now but on the other hand, I am super sad because half of my year is already over!

I have a break now for two weeks and then everything will be new, new classes, new people..

I definitely couldn’t imagine going home now because it takes quite some time until you really settled down and I feel like now I’m at that point where I am actually integrated. When I go to school I have friends in all of my classes and there is always someone I can talk to but at a school that is as big as mine that takes a bit of time and you can’t expect to have a ton of friends after a month. For example, I found so many cool girls in my Cheer team but as soon as the season was over I haven’t really seen them and most students are very busy with clubs, sports, jobs, school and don’t have a lot of time to do stuff outside of school.

That’s why I am even happier to have a host sister in my age because we can always spontaneously drive somewhere and I do so much with my family.

I am super excited for next semester, my new classes and everything that’s going to happen!

This month we also had Spirit Week and I wanted to show you some pics:
