First Day of Language School

Swiss money is BEAUTIFUL! It is so colorful and makes American money (already ugly) look like dirt.
I started my language school today and it was kinda boring. We mostly went over the stuff that I learned from my host family and Rosetta Stone. I loved that about every 10 minuets we had a brake. There are 14 of us at the language school. We are from Hungary, China, Bolivia, Paraguay, Brazil, Dominican Republic, Columbia, and America.

I met my liaison on Saturday. He came over for dinner (yes it is a he I too thought it would be a she). His nam is Simon and he is REALLY tall. Then again I am short so of corse he is all. He is about the same height as Raffie my host brother who I think I am only to his shoulders. As you can tell I am the shortest person in the house. Simon is really nice and he too was with AFS and went to Kansas (poor boy who goes to Kansas???). He is friends with Raffie and plays badminton with him (Raffie).

The bread here is to DIE for and I would not want anything else. Also of corse the chocolate is good it is Swiss chocolate. My family has bread that they only eat on the weekends and it is so rich that I could barley eat half slice when they were eating one or two whole slices.

I watched my first movie in German on Saturday too. It was the movie Gamer with Gerard Butler. I saw it with my liaison and brother. I did not understand most of it but I got in a few words here and there. It was good from what I could tell but I do not know since I did not understand most of it.

On Sunday I saw the waterfall. It is on the border of Germany and Switzerland. It was my first ever waterfall and I thought it was pretty awesome. We walked around a small village that was near the waterfall and that the tour boat took us to. Of corse all the talking was English since well it is Switzerland and that is the main language. And for those of you who did not get my sarcasm then you should go see a doctor. Also Switzerland does NOT speak Swedish that is in Sweden.


Now some Pictures of the beautiful Swiss Franc.
