Tory Ross Update
Posted by Holly Sorgen
"School has been good so far. The German is a little hard though and I can't keep up in most classes. However I am doing very well in gym, computers, and physics. I have many good friends already and I hang out with them on breaks and at lunch on Wednesday, the only day I have afternoon classes. I went to a party with my friends a couple weeks ago which was really fun. I have also joined a volleyball club here in my town Siegenburg and I hope to join the volleyball, basketball, and badminton clubs in my next town Mainburg when I move in two weeks. I am having a little difficulty carrying a conversation with them because of my German skills but I hope things will get better as my German improves.
Last week I went to the alps for the weekend with the other exchange students. It was a blast. We played games on Friday and went hiking on Saturday..There were also dances in the evenings. I met many cool people on that weekend and I am very excited to see them next week when I go to Berlin for a week. It is going to be so awesome to go with the other exchange students. I am looking forward to it very much.
Everything has been fine here. I have done many exciting things so far but lately things have started to even out with school and all. The last two weeks have gone by in a flash and I can't believe I've already been here for three months. I can't believe that I'll be living with my next hostfamily in only two weeks. I'm moving after the Berlin tour which meens I'll have stayed with my first hostfamily for three months and ten days. I'm looking forward to meeting my next host family since their daughter went to Canada last year on an exchange trip. We have already met a few times and I think she's a real fun person. "
