So I promised that I would post some more blogs!
And now it's time again I guess :-)
Today is sunday! And I it's my 3 week at Arbor view,
and I don't know why, but I really love that school! I guess it have something to do with it's my high school year? The school is huge 3000 students, and I see new people every single day! I know that the schools in Vegas are in the bad end with the education, but Arbor view is a pretty new school, so it's one of the better one, but still a lot of things going on there! The day before yesterday suddenly everybody started to gather in a circle, and then there were two black people dancing in the circle just like in the movies! But when you see a circle of people at the school can be a bad thing to cause yesterday we had to fights at school, with all the people standing around, but that's just the high school life, I still love it! And it's good to see all my old friends at the school again.
So I want to tell about my lovely family, the Marcos.
I'm so happy for my new family, I wish I could stay with them for longer time, cause they are great! Actually we are right now working on extending my visa, so I can stay here over the summer, cause I really want to stay with the family as long as possible! I think I already said once who the family consist of, any how, they are just a "perfect" match for me! Normally I would be shy, and not feel home, but with them I'm open, and I feel so much home here! They have really just opened their arms for me, and letting me be a part of the family, I got a 2nd family which I am so happy for! I lost my cable to my camera, so I'm waiting for my new one to come, so I can upload the new pictures!
Skiing/snowboarding trip to Brian Head
So the family likes to do a lot of things, and one of the things is skiing, which I have never tried before because my danish family isn't a big fan of the cold weather, or maybe not good athletics, but I have always wanted to try, cause so many of my friends always go on ski vacations. Well last week from the 27th-30rd January we went to Brian Head Utah to go skiing, I was so excited. So around 6PM thursday we left for the 2 hours trip to Utah, and Friday morning we went up the mountain to ski! I loved it, it was so much fun, and the weather and snow was great, actually it was really hot, but it was fun! Saturday they had this deal with rental, snowboarding/ski lessons, and left ticket going on for only $40 which is cheap, so I got snowboarding lessons with my host sister Lauren, we felt so many times, didn't even count it, cause it took us 10min to get down from a hill, which normally only would take 1,30min, so I started to give up, cause my butt and head started to hurt alot, but I took my last turn, and then I totally got the hang of it, I learned the Technique, and I came down from the hill without falling, so I kept going on snowboarding, and I loved it, I prefer snowboarding instead of skiing now! But it was an awesome experience, and I had a great trip with the family!
Sadies
So Saturday there was a Sadie dance, which is kind of reverse. It's this story about Sadie Hawkins,
but I'm not going to go in any details about that, just google it! But It's the girl who ask the boy out for the dance, and the girl have to buy matching clothe for the boy and her self, and because I only have been at the high school for 2 weeks, so I didn't feel I could ask anybody, which is said, cause I had really been looking forward to a reverse dance, I will hope there will be one more before Prom! Anyhow, I went there with Kris and Sharonda, it was fun, we went to the dance party first, and of course we had to do the DJ Casper song, and Soulja boy dance, which is so American! And I have to say, America teens definitely dance different compared to people in Denmark! But after the dance we went to Sushi Loca, and got some delicious Sushi, and then we were suppose to go to the stripe, but we didn't have time for it.
SuperBowl
So today was superbowl sunday, probably the biggest sport even her in America! It was the Steelers vs. Packers, and my family was cheering on the Steelers, which I also did because of them, but my dad already actually said they he though they would lose. Any how we went over to the neighbors to a superbowl party (American style) where there was a lot of other people, and A LOT of unhealthy food! Any how, the Packers won, by 31-25. But I was a good American experience!
THAT'S MY BLOG FOR TODAY!
Have fun out there, and take care!
Love Patti
