Always asked

I am always asked "so why did you pick Switzerland?"
And I always say "for the chocolate"
Just because it is the sipilest answer I can give and the person asking excepts it as a good answer.
Truth is... I dont even eat all that much chocolate.

phone

my phone is truely a fighter. some how i can get  it too work for a few minutes a day. too bad thats not enough for me, 5 months with this is too long.

Tacos

So when I first changed families I told them I liked to cook, so when my host parenrs were out of town for a night I cooked enchiladas for my host sister which turned out terrible because of my makeshift ingredients. 
So I kept askin if I cook make tacos this week and my host parents kept saying no and they were all suspicious so I finally show them a picture of the tacos I make and they were like "ohhhhh we thought you wanted to make those thigs you made for laura..... we didnt like those (the tried the left overs)"
Hahahaha
So tonight I made tacos and now they are planning a dinner with the whole family so I can make them all tocos because they loved them hahahaha.

Fondue lies

So the other day my host mom said that sunday night (tonight) we would eat fondue. I get called down stairs for dinner all excited and notice it isnt fondue. I ask why and my host mom says that because laura is sick we cant eat fondue.
You cant just say well eat fondue and then..... Change your mind.
-_-

Switzerland.. Why

"Why do you like Switzerland?"
"well the flag is a big plus"

Interlaken

So in switzerland if you go to the really popular tourist places the sales people and waiters will either greet you in english or just stare awkwardly untill you say something so they know how to reply.

A trusting host sister

So today I was in Bern and decided to go throught the Saturday market. I baught two types of olives, one that I didnt realize was supposed to be very hot. Back at home I decide to try one. Im alone and run for water because it was so strong. Then I decide id give one to my host sister, whom I sometimes bring snacks to while shes studying so she had no suspicion.  I offer it to her and she directs me to put it strait in her mouth.  As shes chewing I ask... "do you like spicy food" she looks at me confusdd for a second then the olive kicks in and she just says... AWWWW.
P.s. Laura, this is for last night at dinner
;)
Love ya

History class

So I am in histlry class and we are talking about the middle ages. My teacher said that in china they measured their history differently and didnt have middle ages. Then this kid raises his hand and asks
"what about America"
To which my teacher replied
"America is a child"

....

Not cool

I think it is very uncool how all the kids in my class say I dont work.
Today in a 45 minute computer class I made these two pictures while all the other kids were on facebook and stuff. At least I was productive!
