The redhead can't think of a fantastic title for this post.

Did you miss me?
Well, my gingersnaps, I have been to Corsica and now, I am BACK!
We were there for two weeks in the Pfingstferien.(Pentecost vacation which her is two weeks. For those who do not know: Pentecost is the 50th (Penta = five) day after easter, it is a christian holiday that celebrates and commemorates the recieving of the Holy Spirit by the disciples)
Corsica has very big mountains, very spikey plants, and a very hot climate. The only way I survived their was by clogging my pores with more sunscreen that I can ever remember having to put on in one single vacation and sleeping with any possible windows as open as they would go to catch the lovely breeze of the beach. It was very beautiful: and definitely a strange exotic world from the view of a simple Pennsylvanian. We went hiking so many times and for hours and then swimming in the ocean or one of the fresh mountain streams that are overly-abundant. If you are going to go to Corsica, just please note (if you shall be driving on the island which I guarantee you probably are at some point) that the roads are basically all built onto the sidesof mountains, something that at first sounds pretty but in the end is just VERY narrow, and windy and at times a little scary, in other words, if you are easily car sick DO NOT sit in the backseat of the vehicle or, if it cannotbe avioded, take turns with the person riding shotgun. Also: please be careful of the cattle. Especially around mountain paths and such like that there are a LOT of stray goats, pigs, and/or cows! Don't hit them and go slowly around curves!
Anyway, it was pretty, and the Crousants were excellent considering it is technically a part of France!
In other news I have a 2/3 on my very last German test! (much better that the 3/4 on the one before and best in German so far) I will be ending the year, I believe in pretty good standing in all my subjects apart from Math and NWT...and Music... but I think everything else is great and I am fine with it, I mean I can't exactly change anything now anyway so, yeah.
Apart from that I also am going to Altstadtfest today! Altsstadtfest (Old City Festival?) is in Waiblingen. All my class is going to it and we're going rock it out. It should be really fun!
AND YO. The Women's World Cup is rocking so far: The USA is leading their first round group, having won their last game against North Korea 2 to 0 and are going to be in the first WWC game (on Saturday) that has completely sold out that is two completely foreign teams. (WOO!) I'm so proud of my team and I know we're gonna kick boo-tay!
Anyway, love you all, sorry I've been MIA for a while (sheepish grin)
