It was Nina's Birthday on Wednesday. I usually get to sleep in on Wednesday for an hour, but because it was her birthday I got up early to eat breakfast with her.

It was so cool. They put this massive box with these little annoying things, like little tiny things you use to pack things up, inside. Then they put a camera, which was her main present, and some paper etc in it. It was funny watching her search through the box, but it is OK.
As for me, I gave her what she wished for, which was a cake for her birthday party. Honestly, that is what I gave her.

Anyway, I went to school an hour later, like normal. Boring. Wrote a few tests and then went to Mrs. Wülfel, she is a German teacher for me and Pablo, and we went and had a little party there. It was OK, but...I don't know. Boring.

Anyway, I left at 4pm and got home, only to find that they had started the party without me. But at least they had waited for me to eat my cake. :P I guess it doesn't really matter.
I think Alec will be disgusted again, because it was, once again, a cake and coffe/talk fest. Great. But, this time it was actually OK. I mean, good. Better than normal.

We ate pizza for dinner, which was what Nina wanted to get. It was good, but I couldn't even eat so much because I was so full. This time of year really is, as what Dagmar called it, a "freß fest." Well, I don't know how to spell it. But it is basically an eating party. LOL.

On Thursday I went to school for the last time this year. We had three lessons and then two hours for a party within our class. It was actually, surprisingly, fun!
We sat around and talked, ate and played games. I also took a whole heap of photos and videos. I really want to have thigns to remember everything, I should bring my camera everywhere!
Maybe not.

Well, as I said at school, I am not going to school any more this year. That's it! I hate school, and I don't want it anymore for this year!
Everyone seemed to find that funny.

After school I went and ate ice cream with Nina's friends, celebrating her birthday. That was a little boring, but I am not saying anything. Free ice cream!
Then I went home, tried to do somehting, went to hockey, (I played like absolute SHIT!) and came home. I was totally beat. Honestly. I was dead. School is finally over, if only for two weeks, and...I can relax a little bit. Thankyou!!

Today I woke up late, got to sleep in for the first time in...forever! Then we hung around. Oliver and I were going to do the X-mas trees, but then his filter came, and he totally gave up. He got caught up in drinking beers with his two colleagues (or should I say employees?) and then it was lunch time.
After lunch, till now, which was 6 hours time, we were doing the trees. Well, one tree is now finished, but the other one hasn't even got any decorations yet!

Oliver is such a control-freak when it comes to the decos. It is so annoying, but great fun to make fun of him.
Everything must be perfect, everything must be totally aligned! Nothing camn be out of place!

First came the lights. He put them on very slowly and carefully. Then he turned them on, and replaced nearly all of them. Finally they were right.
Second were the baubles. They had to be in the exact perfect place. Small at the top, big on the bottom. Not too close, but no holes allowed! He took basically every single one that I put on and made it "better." By that it means he basically put it straight back on the tree.
Third. The "lametta." It is these little silver things, like tinsel but not. Do you know? They are thin and about half a metre long, in total. Well, he hung those over the tree. In little clumps. This was the totally rediculous part!
They all must be straight, not too big clumps, but also not too small. They must not touch any other part of the tree, and must be hung properly.
The antics of Germans...

But I didn't say that.

Well. In the end it wasn't really that bad. I had my fun by making jokes. Mostly at Oliver, but it was fun anyway. And chocolate. (:
So now I am back at home. The tree was at the grandmothers, across the road. It was great, but long!

I wish you all a very amazing Christmas! I hope it is great fun, and memorable, for all the good reasons.
As for me, X-Mas is on the 24th in Germany, so I will be celebrating tomorrow with my host-family. It should be great fun, if it is anything like the tree. Tomorrow morning I will have to repeat the pain once again, with our tree.
Oh well.

Hope you have great days! I must be getting off and actually finish making half the presents I am supposed to be making. :


P.S. If you look down to the bottom, you will see the first post that I made when I was in Germany. That means all of my things are on one page, and slowly disappearing. I don'T know why I am saying this. I just find it indescribably cool!
