It has been a while since I have been on mostly because I have been busy but now I am here writing. I had an awesome german christmas with my whole family I will put pictures. It was very fun and a little different they celebrate on the 24th and relax on the 25th so yeah. I got everything I asked for so yeah good. Then on the 28th since Marina and I were the only exchange students that stayed in our town we hung out for the day and just caught up we have not had much time to hang out lately. Then on New Years I stayed home and my sisters boyfriend came over and shot fireworks with us and we celebrated all together. In germany they shoot more fireworks than we do in Texas. Then on the 4th I went to a goodbye party for two of my best friends that had to go home back to Argentina and New Zealand that was really sad but I am glad we got to party one last time we have planned to meet up in the winter of 2014 so I can't wait. Then on Sunday Luka and Jonathan got back from Serbia so I went and hung out with them for a few hours to catch up and just joke around. Then tomorrow is my 17th birthday so yeah that will be fun I went with my host mom to get my present it is great she got me some cologne called "1 million" it is expensive though so I will use sparingly. Then Luka and I have decided to go to a Lil wayne concert and we got front row tickets so yeah I can't wait that will be fun. Then this Saturday I have my birthday party I can't wait because I have three different groups of friends rotary, Xanten, and Uedem and this should get them all together for us to hang out and just chill and relax. Okay that is all for now.
