Yesterday night I went to see the Rocky Horror Show! WOW! Great! Fun!
(How can a man walk with shoes I even would have problems to walk in???)

Driving

I love driving!
I've had my licence for 7 weeks now (I'm still counting ;) ), and driving is so much fun for me. I don't want to miss it any more! First, I was a bit afraid, especially to drive our big car (the other one is a Smart - only 2 seats), but now I can't get enough!!! On Friday I did my first "party tour": I took some people (and me, of course) to a party, which was a 40 mins drive... I didn't drink (I'm a good girl ;) ), but it was cool to belong to the drivers. Yeah!

By the way: I went to see Boris Becker - all year 12 & 13 students laughed so hard about the hysteria he caused with the year 5 students :D.....

Boris Becker?!?!

Well, today I read a poster in school that Boris Becker (the former tennis star) will visit our school tomorrow. Shall I go and see him?
Okay, you have to know that he was born in the vicinity of Heidelberg (in Leimen) and even went to my school before he became famous... Is that a reason? What shall I do? It's probably an opportunity I'll never get again - but is he worth it?

Wise Guys!!!

Look - the Wise Guys from behind the stage!!! I can't wait for the concert to come (It's on May 10)....For those who know: the song is "Denglisch", performed at the World Youth Day...­ <bgsound balance="0" src="http://www.imgag.com/product/full/ap/3055928/music.mid" volume="-600" loop="infinite">

*freeeze*

The world is sooo unfair!!! My little sister Anna is in Australia right now. Until next Wednesday she's staying in Melbourne. I just made the mistake to glimpse into the weatherforecast for Melbourne :[... It won't get colder than 12°C at night and during the day they have around 30°C!!! I'm freezing!!! Today, it was snowing again... I want spring - RIGHT NOW!!! I can't stand the cold no longer... AAAARGH!

tatataaaa

My pictures are online!!!

Italy IV

Monday (13.2.):
On Moday we had school. But it was quite cool because the teachers of "our" class weren't there somehow and as the class had work to do, another teacher offered us to watch a movie. So we watched Notting Hill (in English)....
Then we and our Italian partners had a sports lesson. We played volleyball and soccer (football), Italy vs. Germany - we lost :( because we didn't know each other like the Italian group... In the end we mixed up, so it was fairer...

In the afternoon we went to the house of one of the Italian teachers for a wine tasting. Yes, indeed - they officially gave us wine :) . It was a really dry wine, so we wouldn't drink too much (and the teachers were there aswell...). We also had lunch there - way too much good stuff to eat, so I decided I would eat untill I'd burst ;). When everybody was full up, they brought a fancy cake because it was the birthday of one of the German girls.
During the afternoon the teachers also told us that we would leave on Wednesday morning and not in the afternoon as it had been planned because they didn't trust the trains. They didn't want to miss the night train back home.

In the evening we already packed our suitcases. While Rosa was packing I had time to talk with Chiara because Rosa needed two (2!!!) houres to get packed - she had bought too much...
Chiara invited me to come and visit her in summer. Yeah!!!! I will go!

Tuesday (14.2.): Cuneo
We went to Cuneo, the next bigger town. We had a tour though the city and then we had free time. There was a nice market where we could take a look at things, and I also went to a bookshop because one of the girls I went with wanted to buy Harry Potter I in Italian. I got a book to - in English (Terry Pratchett, if it rings a bell...)

When we came back to Mondovì, Chiara's mom came to meet us and we went shopping - cheese, which I wanted for my parents (it's really good, by the way ;) ).
Then we had our farewell dinner. We had polenta - yummy... I had to cry because I didn't want to leave my new friends that soon. It was not only Chiara I got on with very well, but all of the other Italians too!!!

Wednesday (15.2.): Torino
We had loads of time in Torino to spend so first we went to the Egyptian Museum. This was for the whole group...
Then we splitted up and my little group (3 girls) went to the Sponsor Village of the Olympic Games. It was fun there, and we also met the mascots - Neve and Gliz - of course we took pictures!!!

Then we tried to get rid of our time (it was soo cold) and in hte early evening we met at the main station to catch our train back home.
I was at home at 6:15 am on Thursday morning (16.2.).

for your info

The rest of the report will appear here at the weekend -> when I have more time...
I hope I'll have my photos then aswell!

Italian Report Part III

Saturday (11.2.): 2nd trip to Torino
After some shopping we met to see an Icehockey match: female Germany vs. Finland. It was quite funny (I have absolutely no idea about the rules...) even though Germany lost 0:3...
After the match we were supposed to meet some of the German athletes but it was cancelled for some reason. :(
Then we went to the Museum of Cinema - it is great but we only had half an hour there :( we could have needed at least 2 hours!!

In the evening then whole group (without the teachers) went out for partying. First we had dinner in a small restaurant/club, and at about 0:30 am we left for the disco where I stayed until 3:30 am. Many of us were drunk (not me ;) ), including "Rosa".
That's the girl who stayed also at Chiara's. She was the girl nobody liked -> she's a real [***] (sorry for that word but there's no other word that would describe her better...). She had many pink stuff that's why we named her "Rosa". By the way, she's only 14... Oh, and before we went to the dinner/disco, she took amphetamines - argh!!

Sunday (12.2.): carnival
On Sunday, after having slept in and lunch, we went to see the carnival in Mondovì. There were costumes like in Venice - soo beautiful!!!
Oh yes, and Rosa had a really bad hangover...
