9/11

'What is amazing is that in that moment, there was a moment before that we saw that plane, that second plane, and there was a moment after, and it’s like two different worlds, those two moments. I mean, literally, I can feel like I can remember the exact second when the whole world changed and my life changed forever.' — AUDREY J.

 It describes exactly the day.

Sorry guys that I started with such a sad quote but today is 9/11 and we have to remind the happenings and commemorate the almost 3000 people who died because of this horrible attack.

Some people wore a tie with the flag of the United States today or had a ribbon in their hairs.
In the morning we had a minute of silence but the rest of the day was pretty normal.

My last few days had been very exhausting.. I have actually no time because Cross Country and School are taking me off my freetime hahah.
This weekend we have the band festival at Hempfield on Saturday and on sunday my hostfamily and me will join the Pirates Game at the stadium.
I have a lot of homework to do and I'm always tired when school ends.. We've got 1 meet per week for cross country and I think we won our meet on tuesday. My coach says to my hostmum that he is very impressed of me and my will.. I almost died on the last meet, but hey I've been 11th place! And 7th just of the girls from our Cross country tream and actually that means that I am a varsity - varsity: good ones ; Junior Varsity: not sooo good ones / beginners ) now.. He don't talked to me yet because practice today was canceled because of the weather and I actually don't hope so because the varsity practice is very hard and they have to do very well at meets.

You can't see that much but yeah it's me :D













 Yesterday was my 1 month-being-in-murrysville-celebration hahaha . I actually didn't recognized it but my hostmum bought a reeeaaallly yummy cake to eat. It was like Schwarzwälderkirschtorte just better.

I'm really sore from the meet yesterday.. And tomorrow I have the first meet of the french club ( I'm the secretary) in the morning and in the afternoon I'll have the first meet of Kids helping kids club. I'm really excited about the KHK. 

Sorry if I won't write so much in the next time but I'm really busy in the next few weeks..

I miss you all guys and hope you are all doing well.

Love Nele
