Returning home

So I am slowly approaching my last post of this blog. (Not that there has been so many posts as of late) twenty days from today I will be back in California.  Only 3 weeks.
This year I had many ups and downs highs and lows. I saw and did things that were priceless and things I would not trade for a year back in California.  I met many people and learned alot about the world that I would have never considered before this year on exchange. 
Back this adventure is coming to a close making way for a new one to being.
Thank you reads for yor time and interest in my year in Switzerland. You have given my blog OVER 5, 000 views! I hope I didn't bore you too much.

Heart attack

So back round. My current room was my host brothers old room and the closet still has some folders of his.
So me taking a nap after surving a tick wakes up to him in my room/ closet and i jump and .... he just keeps saying OH MY GOD OH MY GOD runs out of the room and he hasnt come back....... 

Tick

So just found a tick takin a bite of my foot.
I am actually very surprised how calm I was....
No pictures because I flushed him down the toilet and really... who the heck takes selfies with ticks anyways.

A good handshake

I never understood that saying about how important a handshake is untill today when a man shook my hand and it was the worst handshake that i had ever experienced. So bad that it deserved its own post here on my blog.

I got followed nack to my town by  a creapy drunk man
I moved families
I went to italy and ate a ton of pizza
I watched Germany's next top model with my host sister
My host sister forgot her key and called me like 8 times during school
Tried to go on a day trip to italy but everything got messed up
Had a play date with a rotarians two daughters who were nice
Got to go see my host cousins new born son
The neighbors cat was chilling out side my room
I gave a rotary presentation in German

Rotary humor

So I went to my rotary's lunch meeting today and got seated with my current host dad and the two youngest member of the club. We were then named the kids table.

Later amist all the german going on I over hear the two young guys talkig about their small children and how then wishes they had a way tter controle them. One then asks me if when I go home I would send him a tazer.... not a large one he said,... just big enough for.... a small animal.... me all like.... what the heck.....
The two men proceed to think up more creative ideas such as a dart gun, lr chloroform, they thought it was so funny they were both brinking on tears, and I made the mistake of sudjusting a simple dog shock collar.
The rest of the table including my current host dad where just like..... what is wrong with you people.........
