Oh the places I’ll go.
And the places I’ll see.
This time is my time.
For adventure and glee.
I have brains in my head.
I have brains in my head.
I have feet in my shoes.
I can steer myself
Any direction I choose.
I am on my own. And I know what I know.
And I am the girl who will decide where to go.
Nine months down and who knows how many more. I am enjoying my adventure and cannot wait for more. I haven’t left the country since Christmas but my adventures never end. While making new friends and meeting new people I believe that has made my life everything it means. Some roads I have gone down have not been the best, BUT others have been life changing and truly inspirational.
I’ll bee on my way up!

I’ll bee on my way up!
I’ll be seeing great sites!
I’ll join the high fliers
who soar to high heights.
This month I have an amazing amount of vacation days that I am so lucky to have. My grandparents are coming so I will go and see them at some point and another great thing I CAN’T wait for is that one of my best friends will be here! After 9 months of not seeing any friends in person I am jumping off the walls!
All Alone!

All Alone!
Whether I like it or not.
Alone will be something
I’ll be quite a lot.
And when I’m alone, there’s a very good chance
I’ll meet things that scare me right out of my pants.
There are some, down the road between hither and yon,
That can scare me so much I won’t want to go on.
But on I will go
though the whether be foul.
On I will go
Though my enemies prowl…
On and on I will hike.
On and on I will hike.
And I know I’ll hike far
And face up to my problems
Whatever they are.
I have already passed so many challenges and I know that there are many more ahead of me. I have been through the ridicule of mean, rude, and crazy people and I made the choice that I knew what was going to be best for me. I have been mixed up but now I am just taking a step in the balancing act called life.
No regrets!
Now to tell you a little about my week, the weather has again been POOP! But Wednesday was a holiday to “bring in May” so a couple of friends and I put on our dirndls braided our hair and set our sites to Fruhlingsfest or Springfest. This is really just another version of Oktoberfest but MUCH smaller only having 2 beer tents I believe. BUT it’s almost just as fun! And I went with friends that I have so much fun with! We danced on the benches and sang along to the music. I have learned that my intake for German beer has increased since September… so I guess that is an INTERESTING FACT! Also at the fest a friend and I both got told our english was so good. Honestly if you could see the looks on our faces. And every time my response was the same "Well YEAH! I hope my English is good. I was born and raised in California!" Anyways as I said I plan to go on a trip next weekend and then once then a couple weeks later it’s PARTY TIME!!!! I hope that everyone is having a good week!

My friend Agata and I
It's not ALL for me... I promis!
Stacie, Agata, and ME! Dancing on benches has never been so fun!
