Hello Everyone,
In Matt's Hockey Tournament I had to sub in because there was an odd number of people. I was with a boy called Timothy and we WON!!!!!!! We only lost one game in the entire tournament.

Right now I'm trying to write a story. I'm getting inspiration from things I see/experience in everyday life. Example: I got inspiration about giants from chopping the heads off of dandelions with a wooden cane. Weird, eh.

School's been going pretty well. I think I'm still on the High Honors Role. But this last week has just been a blast. It was Experiential Learning Week (ELW). There are 8 kids in my group:Amelie, Eliza, Meghan, Katy, Christie, Trevor, Sam, and me.
Day 1: Trev, Kate and I gardened while the rest cooked Ethiopian food which we ate for lunch. I didn't like it very much. Then we did team-building excercises including "flying".
Day 2: We hiked to the Wolf's Ravine (Wolfschlucht) and ate potatoes+onions+red peppers+bacon+meatballs+carrots wrapped in tin foil and placed over a fire. I didn't like it very much. But afterwards we had marshmellows, so it was worth it. After that we did a compass course.
Day 3:We played Japanese games and cooked & ate Japanese food. I especially liked the crab meat. Yumyum!!! After that we went on a hike to the ruins of castle Sausenberg. That was cool.
Day 4: We went on a ropes course. The whole thing was atleast 3 meters off the ground. It was kinda freaky at some points. But we were harnessed in. I went on 3 of the 4 levels of hardness (not the hardest).

Track has been going pretty well. Actually, it just ended. Us junior highers were cut out of this Saturdays meet. GRRRRRRRR!!!!! It was an American base with all the North American restaurants and food we can't get in Germany.

I am looking forward to drama next year. This years fifth graders will be in middle school next year (that means Matt). One of the boy's in that class (Joseph, who is also son of the drama teacher) wants to do The Hobbit. That might be interesting.

Now I've run out of things to type, so good-bye.
