The redhead has had a week of school already! Weird.

OHMYGOD.
I know what you're thinking, I've been slacking a little with this blog things seeing as something incredibly big in "The German Experience"  happened... and that was... I went to school!!!!
Boo-Yay! (It's both.)
My first day was weird... for me. Because I did many things I had never done before. I used public transportation (and have been successfully all week), I experienced my first "Pause" and many afterward, I experienced math in German, I sat through a class I knew absolutely  nothing about (French), and I managed to lug about 13 books in my backpack.
First public transportation. Public transportation means it's crowded, sometimes loud, and most of the time it smells weird. My first day in the bus I got on and it was so crowded I was basically pressed into the windsheild. Mostly the other breif inhabitors of the bus were students like me and early morning workers. It was pretty loud and it smelled like a mixture of too much perfume and cigarrette breath and it wasn't exactly pleasant. When we got to the school we waited in the office until someone knew where I was going, then I went with my German teacherto sort of my 'Homeroom' ish. It's where I have the majority of my classes. I was told to sit next to the window and met my first schoolfriend, Carolin. She helps me in a lot of my classes, she's very smart. I met all the people around me and then suddenly after getting my schedule from the teacher we had a "Pause". This one was short 5  minutes or so. There is a pause every hour (I think). The pause after that is a longer pause for 20 mintues or so. When we have afternoon school we have a lunchpause for about an hour and the weirdest thing about pauses are that you can go anywhere. You can go anywhere and do anything as long as it's not against the law and you get back in time for class.
As of today I've had all my subjects all of which I sort of understand except French. I know how to say two things in French: Wi and Bonjour. That's it. The class I'm in has had French for about 5 years. Great. Luckily the teacher is very sweet and after I explained the problem decided that I would learn what I could learn what i could and that was that. Math we learned about functions, which was interesting the first two days because I understood nothing! luckily, my host family dad is a math super genius so he helped me understand it better and now i'm doing pretty good and i kind of understand my teacher!
another weird thing is that my schedule here is different each day of the week and depending on the day I could be home at 12ish or I could be home at 5ish. Today was a long one and I know that my blog posts are getting lame and I'm sorry... My next one will be SUPERMEGAFOXYAWESOMEHOTT, but right now... I'm tired. Guten Nacht.
