its amazing here. i am so happy to be here but at other times i still cant believe im here in Germany living here and that im not going home for another 12 months. sometimes all i want to do is go home and just be there, because i know that everything is much easier at home where i know where everything is and i know the people. but there is also a strange thrill about going into new surroundings and being whoever i want to be because no one knows anything about me or my past.
the poeple here are so very nice. especially the exchange students who have told me so much about their experiences so far that i am very exciting for mine. They have made themselves available for me to talk to anytime i need when i am having trouble and its a very comforting feeling that i always have someone there to talk to if i dont want to talk to my host mum or father or my real family back home. They are also very fun to be with and they make me feel very happy.
So far i have been inviting to so many places. I am going to Köln on thursday with my host brother and friends and i have been to Dusseldorf twice with my friends and family and i have been invited to many parties. some that im unable to attend because i have another party to go to. but there is a very big party called COLLEGE BREAK and its like the australian schoolies, and i am very pumped for this as its going to be awesome.
I am going to be so busy. I have things already in my diary for months to come and i still havnt put things in there. Tonight, me and my friend Panda put together a short list of things that i want to do before i leave. I have not finished writing it but i know i am going to do everything on the list.
writting again soon.

big jet planee..
11days. Not long at all. I think that maybe I'm starting to get a little nervous about settling into my new family. Because usually it takes me a while to warm up to people. But once i have done that I'm better and i can be myself. Only a few select people get to see me in my natural state. It gets a bit hectic.
Today i finally received my cards with all my details on them and i think there is another parcel for me at the post office.
I have started to pack my things, my mother and i had a little freak out because there was so much stuff in my bags and i was even finished choosing things that i wanted to take with me. The bags are exploding with things and I'm really worried that the bags will be to heavy, because even the bags on their own are quite heavy. I hope i don't get in trouble for having too much weight at the check in. That would be the worst thing ever.
This weekend is my going away party and I'm looking forward to it, but also dreading it because it will be the last time i see most of my friends before i go. I know that i will be so excited to go, but when we are driving to Sydney. I think that even though i have always said that Tumut is a hole and i want to get out and everything. I will be very sad and i will miss my little town very much. There are weird things that only Tumut people do like, the buses making people think they are in the road when they really are not and people having overwhelming community spirit. There are lots of little things that only people in Tumut know about.
I know i will miss everything about it but hopefully, when i come back, i will miss everything about my German town and i hope that i will be able to visit all the time and still feel like i am one of them.
Genießen Sie Ihren Urlaub.

not long to go...
Not long to go now. I had my final Australian Rotary meeting, they re presented me with my blazer and they gave me some Tumut banners. It was really nice to know that they are all wishing the best for me and are there for me if i need anything when I'm over there.
It made me think how lucky i am. Everyone who has been or is currently on exchange think that its the best thing you could do. I'm looking forward to it so so much. Although having to say goodbye to most of my friends the other day made it seem more real and made me realise how much i am going to miss them, some of them i will never see again or not be able to. Well, i wont be updating again until I'm in Germany, even then I'm not sure ill have time or even want to. I will be having to much fun.
