The time around 9/11

Then its time to let you know whats going on over here!

First off all, i want to let everyone know that everything is going great. Sometimes times fly, sometimes it goes slow, sometimes i think of how it is at home, sometimes i just love being here!! But i begin to like it more and more to be here, and i get along with the entire family very well. Sometimes i enjoy being here too much, as you can see in the picture with William and Matteo eating donuts. The empty chair is mine yes...

We had alot of donuts, and they are AWESOME!! :)

And yes, Matteo looks weird.. its because he is having a mouth orgasm, cause they are so GOOD!

But even though we eat LOTS of donuts we are still keeping it real :p hahaha

Well beside eating donuts, i started in Renaissance High School... wooow, thats different!!

The first day we went to the school in our uniforms. khaki pants and burgandi or white polo. We had our scheduals. im having Physical Education, German, World History, English, Biology, Marketing, Math. But tomorrow im gonna make some changes..

When we walked trough to halls for the first class, it seemed like everyone was looking at us.. We were the foreigners, and also the minority because we are white. So so many people looked at us, and fortunately some wanted to talk to us aswell :)

Then it came to lunch time.. i was alone by this time, and i was in shock. It was like 500 people in one single room. and it was chaos.. REALLY CHAOTIC! it was impossible to hear anything because of noise, its almost impossible to find a seet because of people. Fortunately i found Matteo and Angelo (a friend of William, we got introduced to some days before school) Then the rest of the day went fine, and i talked to some kids

This is one of the few things that surprised me alot. and it is that when i was in Denmark and we were talking about going to highschool in USA, everyone thought that it was easier than Denmark. But since i got to this VERY high performing High School its really hard. And i even have to change my math class because im not as smart as they seems to be.. So its a really different from what i thought, because now im at a school that expects more and harder than ive ever tried before.. So that was prejudice to think that the school would be alot easier. But when i get the classes that fits me, im sure it will be just fine! :)

I wish i had some pictures from the school, but i promise you will get a picture of me and matteo in school uniform :) :)

That was how the first week of school turned out to be.

Then it became weekend, Ken and his friend Margerit had a garage sale. (i know i look tired on the picture, and its bad...) We had to help getting all the furnitures out by the road, it was alot of work. But now i know what a real garage sale is like... :) The garage sale was not all good, because when the weak italian had to carry a table he hurt hes back so bad. That he couldnt go the the goodbye party of Darren (a student from renaissance that is going to spain for a year) i went there and it was fun meeting some people outside the school :)















I think that is experience is going to learn me ALOT about culture and different lifestyles from what we have in Denmark.. Today Matteo said that now he could understand how it was for a black person to move into a white society.
