I have a funny story, so one day my friend Vitor who comes from Brazil and I planned a day to hangout. I remember it was on a Friday afternoon after school. Our last class ended at 1:15 so that was good. So after school we went to the gym for an hour, and left to go watch a movie. The gym is only about a 3 minute walk from the school. So we just left our bikes in the school, and walked to the gym. Now, by this time it was sunny, and windy. But once we left the gym, it was suuuuuuuuper windy, and cloudy. It was softly raining, but it wasn't to bad. Once we walked back to the school, it was raining a little harder. When we got our bikes, we both wondered if we should wait for the weather too calm, but since we were already on our bikes we thought it be better to just go. So then, we entered the woods, and it felt like it was raining rocks. The wind was roaring with such force, it was hard pedaling the bike. It was funny because at the time we were not wearing any rain gear. And when we were pedaling we looked so funny. Anyways, there came to a point where it started to hail, and my friend thought it was SNOWING! He was riding his bike in front of me and if he stopped we would've crashed into each other. Anyways, I was already really cold and soaked and all I wanted to do was get home. But, no. I herd Vitor yelling "SNOOOOOW!" and then he even stopped to record. I yelled back, saying IT'S NOT SNOOOOOW DON't STOOOOOOP! I WANNA GET HOME! And then it started pouring hail that was about the size of broccoli, maybe a little smaller. Now the funny part, was that vitor was yelling, I was yelling because it was just too funny, and then he yells back "AHHHHHH WHY DOES SNOW HURT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" and in my head i'm just like OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yeah, it was a good day to get wet lol.

As I waited on my train to arrive, I looked around and cherished the beauty of Esbjerg. I sat down on a bench, and across from me were buildings that were nothing like home. The sky was clear blue, and it was chilly. People were walking, riding bikes and smiling at one another. I was surrounded by the smell of hot chocolate, and bakeries. (idk how to type that, thing is it smelled warm, and good) My point is, at that moment I realized that I was falling in love with the country. I was falling in love with the weather, the people, bakeries, the sound of trains, and how peaceful this city is. I was falling in love with the fact that Denmark was becoming my home, and I didn't like the fact that I was going to leave it sometime. I'm soo happy here, and I really don't want to go home.
For those who are wondering about what I've done, I been pretty busy. I'm moved in with a new family and I have gotten so attached to them. You know that feeling where like you would prefer spending the holidays with your actual family? Well, for me I really don't mind not spending the holidays with my actual family. The family I'm with now truly done an impact on me, and I'm really looking forward to spending it with them. I'm truly blessed, and beyong grateful to of been hosted by them. I have a mom and dad, and 2 younger sisters. Along in the house lives my host dads brother, and his mother. Two weekends ago, I went to Lubeck, Germany for 3 days. My family, and my host dads great grandparents took a trip. We stayed at this really cute camping cabin. We left on a Friday afternoon and arrived around 20:30 p.m (8:30) When we arrived, we settled, unpacked and ate dinner. We ate open sandwiches, and tartelletters. Since we arrived pretty late, and it was a 5 hour drive we just stayed in and rested the rest of the night. The following morning, we woke up early, and walked around the city. Let me tell you, GERMANY WAS SO FREAKING COLD! Like just by being outside for like 5 minutes my face felt so numb, and I felt like my nose was going to fall of. It was immensely cold. We were out all day, and ate dinner at this nice restaurant and then went home. We had to be out Sunday morning, so we woke up early again and left. Anyways, to conclude this paragraph, I'll conclude with Germany is beautiful, and I'm planning to come back again. It was a really good weekend, and I enjoyed every second of it. Even the feeling of having that feeling of your nose falling off lol. My danish is okay, it's not to bad and it's not to good. I have a really hard time pronouncing the vowels and all the o sounds. School is pretty good. I've made friends, both in my class and others who are in a different grade. I have gotten close to my Danish, English and Spanish teachers. I've talked to my others teachers, but were not as close as I am to my language teachers. Have I mentioned, I joined the school band? Yet, I cannot sing nor play an instrument, but that's okay... its fun. Also, I love being a Mexican/American. I've done a couple presentations about Mexico and the United States, and how a life of a Hispanic is under Trump. Its quite interesting, and I really like how Danes are very aware about some of the situations that go around in the States. My favorite part about this all is being able to expand my cultural! Gosh, I just love everything right now. Anyways, I think that's all for now. Vi ses min venner! |
