It is finally fall!

I was talking to a really close friend the other night and in the middle of describing some story I stopped and I realized that it didn't feel right. I didn't really feel like me. I panicked a little bit, my voice didn't sound right, and what was coming out of it wasn't what old Rose would be talking about. I could have used every word in the English dictionary and my friend still wouldn't have really completely understood.

Before I left for this exchange I knew what rebounds had said, how it was hard to go back home because no one would understand what an entirely different person they are. I understand that now. For the first two months I think I felt like the same person just living some four thousand miles east of where she used to live. Now it's still me but.. different.

I had Quark (pronounced: ka-vaack) on Friday. To me it tasted like a sweeter jogurt with raspberries (or some red berry), and every time I would say that they were like "no, its different" but couldn't actually tell me specifics on how. Maybe it's a secret recipe...

This is Quark with some red fruit.. mmmyummy

On Tuesday Paola, Andrea, rebekah, and I came to my house after school and made käse kuchen - cheese cake. It was Andrea's recipe and it was amaaaazing! I brought it to school for the next few days for us to munch on. Although there was Quark in it so I'm not sure if it's a German recipe or not.

This coming Thursday my distrikt leaves for Paris! We will drive there in two buses. My distrikt and a few people from other districts are going as well, over 90 people total! We will have to sleep on the bus because we will arrive in Paris at 8am or so an have a full day ahead of us! I looked at our itinerary and it sounds like we are going to the Louvre, Eifel Tower, Montmarte, Moulon Rouge (?), and Versailles. I went to Paris four years ago and I am interested to see if I remember everything we will be seeing! I hope it won't feel like a been there - done that situation.. Well, I do know for sure that it will be a completely different experience than last time!

This is one of the two instant coffee machines in the school.

We have no snack vending machines :(

But we do have a cafeteria that has forks and knives and real plates!
