The past few days have been pretty boring, which is normal for the school weekdays. Monday we got our tests back in English, which was very disappointing. I got a B on the test when everyone was expecting me to get an A. I mainly just got spelling errors and punctuation errors. A couple other things I got wrong were things I missed while I was in the black forest, like literary terms that I should already know but forgot of course...
Then today in English we played Taboo. I am sure you all know what that is, but if you dont know I will explain it. Its a game with two teams, one team gets a word and you have to try and explain that word to your team without using 5 certain forbidden words in your explination. Your team has to guess the word in a certain amount of time. It is challenging for my classmates because their English vocabulary is pretty limited.
I recieved a care package from my mom today which made me soooooo happy! I got doritos and poptarts and oreos, and also a little halloween candy bag that my aunt Lisa threw in there for me. I just realized that I REALLY miss Diet Dr. Pepper! I know that I'm not going to be able get soda in any packages, so I am just going to have to wait till summertime to drink it again! Well, nothing else new... I'll post again soon :)

You have the rest of your life to eat and drink American food.
Enjoy the items you can only get in Germany now, because next year you will be missing that stuff. Don't think about asking me to make Wienerschnitzel!!
I know how to make Wienerschnitzel!! I think. Is it breaded fried pork patties that are pounded out? Joshua's favorite. I put a little gravy on mine though.
Hey,
Yeah, I got the same grade on my English test, but I bet you if you came to America and took that test you would have had a better grade. That is because they learn British-english over there which means the spelling and grammar are going to be a bit different. You go to school and tell your teacher that. The German Gymnasium teachers love to make Americans look like idiots.
