Kansas City Zoo

Yesterday we all, Amber, Katie(friend of me and Amber), Cheryl, Matthew, Andrew and I went to the Kansas City Zoo. It was a fun experience even though we didn´t have enough time to see all the parts of the zoo. I loved the cute polar bear who played behind the glass. Here are a few pictures :)

Auditon

Yesterday we found out who got the roles for the play. I didn´t get anything I wanted..Instead of playing a big character my drama teacher splited me up in 3 smaller roles... and has to destroy one character I have in order to have time for the make up. I play Tibia but not Tibia because now shes not a ghost anymore. Anyway, I´ll make the best of it. There are no bad roles only bad actors! Let´s go Wizard of Oz.

FLORIDA, YEAH BABY. :D

Yesterday Amber asked me for my agenda. I gave it to her and when I got it back she showed me two dates one in januray and one in february. At January 26 she wrote: Soo.. Me+You are going to Florida :D . And I was like that the heck? What´s going on? At february 1 she wrote: We get bacl from Florida. And then i knew she was serious. We are going to Florida in Winter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Her grandparents (from her dad who passed away) live in Florida with a pool in the bag yard and so in. :) And Crystal and Amber go every year and Amber decided to take me with her! OMG She didn´t even take their last exchange student. I´m so surprised of her :) I´m so excited and happy. We will go to Florida. Her stepmom Crystal seems to have a lot of money, because Amber told me if I try to pay the flight she probably won´t let me. She never lets anyone pay. I can´t believe it. So I´m probably going to Florida for free. Mum has to come back from Spain now, so I can tell her and she can talk to EF. I´m gonna be gone for a whole week and miss school! Awesome right?

Audition

Today the Audition for The Wizard of Oz takes place. I´m pretty nervous but I won´t give up, I really would like to be the good witch. But the language is a great barrier in this case, even though my English is good like a lot of people say. I wish I had the support from my mom this morning, she would believe in me. A lot of people take your hope by saying exchange students never get big roles in a play, Cheryl says the same.... It kinda makes me said I wish people would encourage more. Anyway, I´ll still try, nobody can blame me for that. 
The weekend was quite okay. I played a game with my brothers, had fun at corn maze with all the other exchange students and practiced for the audition a little. ;)
playing The LIFE with Matthew :)

the weekend is too short!

And it really was too short. Friday we went to Worlds of fun to the haunted houses, where people scare you. I was such a chicken, really, I was sooooo scared and hided behind Matthew Hodges the whole time. This one whing called "Mental Hospital" scared the hell outta me. But nobody could beat the screaming of Cassandra in the roaler coaster. :D Saturday we had two pary´s in our house. 1. the baby party, which was really nice and PINK. and 2. amber´s and cassandra´s birthday party which was really fun and relaxed. We sat around the bon fire and played football. Sunday I tried to get all my work done and yesterday we played Football with the whole family outside the house which was really fun (cheryl was at work) Amber scored ! yeah! I didn´t of cuz.! haha. Matthew fell asleep in the grass on the field and we had to carry him inside :D . Gaspare also showed me how to hit the gold ball in the garden. It reminded me of the driving range in Vancouver. Today is my last Volleyball game. Wish me luck

Kansas City !

Sunday afternoon my English teacher Mrs. Baker offered an extra credit field trip. (We earn point for attending it) . We went to the library in Kansas City, which is very nice. In there we listened to a speech of a female historian about jewish immigrants. It was...okay :D A little boring, but who cares, we get extra credit right? I was able to do some photos of KC.
