82 degrees and being crafty

Okay I take back what I said yesterday about it being hot. Today was 10 degrees warmer?! It's a little crazy. 

Today during class I was noticing how nice everyone is to each other and how so much more of it is genuine than at Flathead. Which I'm going to miss so much. Switzerland really has this school system thing down with the separate schools for smarter people and the neat class system. Ah well. 

Also after school I got a lil crafty and decided to sew my pants to be skinnier and shorter. I can never find skinny jeans that fit me because I have a wide waist but skinny calves and really short legs. So I fixed my new jeans! 💪🏻

71 degrees and Google+?

It was soooo hot today. Most of the time the weather is a few degrees warmer than in Montana, but apparently not today. 

I watched a YouTube video about Google+ and remembered that I have one because I have a gmail address... So I went on the page and it says I have 29,000 views?! I literally posted nothing on there except that I was "soon to have survived middle school :D". (Which I find hilarious.) However, apparently I was a dumb middle schooler, because my cell phone and part of my address was on there. Whoops. Don't put your personal info on the Internet, kids!

Half day & sprinkle photography

Today we had a half day like every Wednesday, and the weather surprised everyone by being super rainy in the morning and super sunny in the afternoon. I went to a friend's house after school to hang out & study, and we saw a picture idea on Pinterest... Which resulted in us doing this: 

Which I think is really neat. :) 

cotton candy clouds

Today was an average school day, except it was super windy all day. Like super windy. Which made for gorgeous clouds! Here are a bunch from today. I love the sky. :) (all unedited!)

Strawberries & sunsets

I sound like a broken record because in almost every post I mention the weather. My excuse: I walk to and from school every day, so I really notice the weather, and there are a lot more sunny days here than in Montana, so I appreciate them more. Therefore I am again going to say that today was absolutely gorgeous.

I've also been getting more and more interested in photography, and I want to maybe start a blog for just my pictures. I'm not 100% sure yet. :) But anyways, here are some cute strawberries we had for dessert today, and a shot of the sunset because I liked the clouds. 

By the way, it's the 31st anniversary of the day that the Breakfast Club kids met for detention! 

Wooo spring!

Technically I Skyped with Stephanie this morning... At 1 am.

Today was a half day, and it was absolutely gorgeous weather. 

I spent my afternoon going running with Lara and doing math. The nice weather seems to have everyone in a better mood... Like just generally on the train more people are smiling. It's a nice change after a grey winter. :)

It's basically spring

Today was gorgeous and sunny. There were birds tweeting and flowers blooming. It's only the beginning of March??? *shrugs confusedly*

Schoolio

We actually have snow! Yay! And today both the Biology and The Spanish teacher were gone, so we had a bunch of free time:) Tomorrow's a half day again too... Yay less school time!

(The view from our classroom)

Wow time to bundle up

This morning there was finally a tiny bit of snow on the ground, and when I was walking home I got caught in a lil storm. It was wonderful. Seriously. Everyone I saw was all bundled up like it was really cold when it was actually around 34 degrees Fahrenheit and the snow wasn't really sticking to the sidewalks. Silly geese. Come to Montana and experience a real winter. 

Tomorrow we don't have Biology! Free period:)

Monday woohoo

Today Lara came over for dinner and we hung out and talked and such:) Other than that it was a normal day... It's still bizarrely warm, today I wore converse and jeans and a 3/4 sleeve shirt and wasn't at all cold... It's weird. 

Summer...

It was gorgeously warm again/still today, and we had two tests, Biology and German. I think I did good on both. 🎉

But seriously, amazing weather. Ah.

Weather

Today was a pretty average day:)

I had to run for the train and I slipped in by like 2 inches. Yippee!

Today I was noticing how everyone was complaining about the cold. I didn't think it was that bad... So I liked at the weather here and the weather in Kalispell and laughed. This is right now, 10:30pm for me and 2:30pm in Kalispell. (Fahrenheit)

Umbrellaaaaaa

Today I had a half-day of school (like every Wednesday) and it rained the whole day. :/. My grandma decided that for my birthday she would buy me a new umbrella, so today we went umbrella shopping. So exciting, I know. But I actually found a really cool one... :)

Also, when we were in Zurich I noticed a bunch of things hanging from the buildings and I asked my grandma about them. Apparently Zurich gets all lit up with Christmas lights during the holiday season. I'm so excited for Christmas already... Is that weird? I can't wait to see what these look like lit up though!

Tonight was a holiday called "Rabelichten", which means " turnip lighting", which means that you carve turnips (kind of like pumpkins in the U.S. But different-see the post "Happy November!" for details) and you walk through the streets where the streetlights are turned off with the lit turnips, and it looks really cool. It was super fun, even though it was raining nonstop all day today-it even snowed a teeny bit tonight! (This is a group of kids holding their turnips-you can't see it very well)

Rain

Today was gorgeously rainy. Which means all the slugs come out. I have never seen larger slugs than there are here. They're everywhere. (My hand is for size comparison)

School was school, only I got out super early! Yay! Tomorrow p.e. is moved to a different time, so I get out early again! Woot!

And all my classmates seem to be under the impression I live in a place like Alaska after seeing the video I sent them (see post "Monday"). I had to explain a bit that the video was made in the winter and that yes, we do in fact have relatively warm summers sometimes. 

Pretty day

Today I noticed when I was going home how gorgeous the sky looked. So naturally I had to take a picture. I also just missed the train, so I had 15 minutes to burn, but that's totally not why I took a picture. 

I'm pretty sure since it's no longer summer vacation the weather has just decided to be gorgeous. 

Tonight I Skyped with Katie. I miss everyone!

I survived a week!

Yay! 1 week down, only about 35 more to go... 

Of course now that school starts the weather is gorgeous. Weather logic. 

I also found this app where you can make mini avatars and they're adorable. 

Sorry for the short post, but it's 2:30 am and I'm going to sleep! Good night!
