Havin Fun

Hello World!
Good Morning. Austria is great. I am really enjoying myself out here. Valentine's Day was cute.. since i'm not in the US Justin wrote me a poem that was really good. and I am going to print it out or something... it was really nice. But otherwise I just relaxed.. Monday we had academic orientation and went on a sleigh ride in Filzmoos. The sleigh ride was amazing. I had sooo much fun. What they did was they took us on a ride up to the cabin where we were eating and the horses and the scenery was just absolutely gorgeous. The alps are AMAZING to look at. I have a few pictures, and it looks so fake on pictures, but it looks even more fake in person; it is almost as if nothing should be that beautiful in person. It was absolutely breathtaking. I would love to go back up there just for the views that I got to see. No matter how long I've been here, I still cant get over the fact that this is real and that im really here! it is amazing to me. I have never had an experience like this. But anyways, we had a lunch there with gulach soup and some type of sweet cake. O MY GOSH the soup and desert were AMAZING! that was some good food, and mind you I have had some great food in my lifetiime, but that was SO GOOD. I f I ever come back to Austria, that will be one of my first stops lol. On Tuesday it was just a normal day, just went to German class and Tuesday was also Carnaval, but it is not the CArnaval I am used to like in the Carribbean, it is when the locals dress up in various costumes, and at night they drink - if they are legal of course. So tuesday night we went to O'Malleys and to Shamrock's which are two pubs right across from the Linzergasse that most of the kids go to. O'Malleys was way to crowded and smoke filled so we ended up hanging at Shamrocks which was still cool. We played :never have I ever" and learned a few things about our fellow classmates lol..it was only girls so it was a-okay. the girls I went with were my roommate Hanna, my suitmates Ileana and Megan, Ana, Erika, and ANOTHER GIRL WHOSE NAME i ALWAYS forget lol. but regardles of it, we all had a lot of fun. So we decided Tues that on Fri we will have a girls nnight in and we will watch movies and have some wine, I'm excited, I think we will have so much fun this semester together. I am glad i have finally found my little "group" to hang with. and last night did the same thing as usual German class, but I had the early class SO i had the whole day to enjoy, and more hours of sunlight lol.. which are very precious here lol... so megan and I went and had a kabab for lunch, those are REALLY good too, and I filled out all my info for class registration, which I have to do in a few minutes and I made my class schedule - that is ridiculous... on Mondays I have 2 classes from 2-330 and 6-730 on tues. i have one class, from 515 to 645.. now Wed is my HELL DAY it is really ridiculous I am in class from 830 am to 10 am and then from 12 til 7 pm. It is really bad... I dunno how I am going to do this.,,, I will have to talk with Ms. Ingrid about this. Also on Thurs I have one class at 12 until 130.. and no classes on fri so besides wed its not a bad schedule at ALL. And last night Megan and I decided we will be doing a nightly wak/run to get into shape and stay in shape. So that will help with my goal to lose 10 lbs while I am here. Plus on top of that We can take sports classes and I am looking at Pilates, body shaping and stretching, and a Zumba and Latin workout class. So between those once a week, the walking around here and the walking at night, those ten pounds should shed quickly lol. or at least I hope so, but I'm logging off for now, update you later
