Cournation, Carnival and Houston

Hallöchen, today, we have only 13 more days of school left! Exciting exciting! Well, I plan on going to school in Germany, too but not like the whole day. Sometimes, I wake up because I dream I'd be back in Germany and get really sad about not having my second family with my two crazy sisters, all the aunts and cousins and little Lola our doggy. It'll be hart to say good bye and I'm already afraid of that moment! Last week was pretty exciting. On Thursday, we went to a conurnation, a tradition in Corpus where basically all the super rich people come together and the young men and women represent themselves and a theme. We felt a little out Of place but we were invited by good friends. This year the theme was; courts from all over the world. Girls represented princesses in gorgeous dresses. It was a beautiful spectacle but that's pretty much it. Right now, they celebrate the Buc Days in Corpus and the have a nice carnival downtown. We went on Friday and went on do many rides that I felt really nosheous afterwards! On the weekend, we went to Houston because my representative wanted some exchange students to see an Astro's baseball game. My host-dad also took us to the Cheese Cake Factory, the Galleria mall and Nordstrom rack. Inside the mall is a huge ice skating space and you could watch the pros practicing. We had a blast together! :D
