Everybody wants a thrill!

Well, it has been quite a while since I posted last.

Our lessons now take place in a new building. It is actually closer to my house... I think, but I still need to leave at the same time because the next bus after the one I usually take comes too late.

We have been on so many excursions, and been to so many random castles, cities, and cool places... it is exausting!

I can't believe I only have one week left here in Bonn. A week from today I am going to Frankfurt, and three days later I have my first day of school and I'll turn 18!

Last weekend we went to Düsseldorf to see a soccer game. The team there is not in the highest national league, it's in the second highest one, Zweite Bundesliga, but it is still super popular with the local people. The team, Fortuna Düsseldorf, won three to zero. It was so exciting! Then, random, sometimes drunken, people were celebrating throughout the city's downtown. It was great.

School has started back home, and everyone is leaving for their colleges and my sibilings and younger friends are going to their schools too. It made me a little upset not to be there and visit people/teachers/marching band, and see my friends off. The time will come soon enough when we are all together... I can't wait to share experiences with them!

I really want to go to school in NYC... it is often on my mind.

We went career researching two weeks ago. It really stressed me out. I really dunno what I want to do anymore. I have too many options; too many interests... it is going to be so hard for me to decide.

Today we visited a castle in a town called Braubach. I missed the original train to a town further south, where the other group first went. There they took a boat tour on the Rhein up to Braubach, where I met them. There we had lunch, and then climbed a pretty big hill to get to Marksburg (St. Mark Castle). I am exausted. I can't wait sleep in tomorrow...

That's about it for now :-D
