End of summer

School starts tomorrow! (Eep!) and I'm going to miss this weirdly rainy summer. I went to the pool:

Went on some trips:

Decorated a tshirt with my cousin:

Skyped friends for a long time:

Made a bag from an old sheet and decorated it:

Enjoyed some beautiful sunsets:

And made a ladybug friend. It decided to fly into my room and onto my laptop to help me with my math. Best math buddy ever. 

Summertime nothingness!

So last week and this week I basically did nothing, which included decorating my room,

Going to the Alpamare (an epic water park) with my cousin,

(And being amazed that they have Hershey's chocolate right next to the amazing Toblerone chocolate)

going shopping:

The first of August is basically Switzerland's birthday, and this year Switz was 723 years old! We celebrated by eating some bread I don't remember the name of (oops):

Going into Zurich, walking around listening to traditional music, and eating "chäse spatzli" (literally translated-cheese + a type of bird native to Europe) which are little mini dumplings with cheese and onions and parsley. It was pretty delicious:

That evening, we went to Dominic and Lara's house and ate yummy food, watched-and lit off-fireworks, and pretty much just used the day as an excuse to stay up until 2 am doing silly things. 

I got a little bored late one night and did some magic:

I am currently at my cousins house, where I stayed for three days because my aunt and uncle are on a mini vacation and decided to temporarily abandon their children.

During the three days I was here we made mini pizzas-twice:

Made a tiny fire and roasted marshmallows at 2 am (from which I now have mosquito bites on my eyelid and in the middle of my forehead):

Made a chocolate fondue at 3 in the morning with a friend (with silly consequences if you dropped your food in the chocolate)

And generally played a lot of super exciting video games:

It's 5 am now on the last day/night I'll be here... I think it's about time to go to sleep. Goodnight!

Week of moving stuff

So this week:

Mom and Gage left-and arrived!-for home, I went shopping with my cousin,

Skyped with Katie,

Went to the "badi" (swimming pool) with Lara (three times!),

And moved into my new room! There was a lot of furniture and stuff and stuff and stuff to move. Today I started decorating... It's gonna be a while before the walls are more exciting:

Yesterday evening I went to a farm with my grandparents to meet with some of their friends. It was fun, but the best part for me was finding out that we were allowed to eat a bunch of cherries! I looove cherries.

And... I did a bunch of math. (Happy, mom? :p)
