update #20 - vegas/ first track meet/ knott's berry farm

days count: 230

I don't really know where I stopped, but  whatever. I don't even know how to blog, so I have no idea what I am doing here but who cares (…) I'll just tell what I remember.
There is some personal that I just don't want to talk about, so if some things don't make sense I apologize. Okay, I'll just start.

I went on the EF Las Vegas / Grand Canyon trip with many other Exchangers. (No clue if this word even exists..) We got picked up by a bus and after a couple hours we were in our hotel, which was on a road next to the strip. We basically just had to go through the MGM hotel, or more like the actual casino and we were there. The hotel we stayed at had a hot tub and a pool. I shared a room with Vendela and Nadja (both of them attend my high school) and four other girls from other places in Cali, and one of the IEC's that went on the trip with us. The evening we got there, we went straight on the strip. It was the second time we've been there for Vendela and me and the first time for Nadja, so it was still pretty exciting. Las Vegas is, besides Paris, which is actually also in Vegas lol, my favorite city ever. You can never see everything because there's so much going on and things always change.
Okay, back to business,we spent our whole evening there, our curfew was ten.

Sunday morning, we went to an outlet mall, after we got home, Vendela, Nadja and I went to the planet hollywood mall on the strip. On monday, we got up earlier and took the bus to Arizona. The Grand Canyon is just an insane place to see. It's incredibly beautiful.

As you can see, it was pretty chilly

My girls & I,
no clue what's wrong with my legs though

So, we just spent some time there. 

We got back to Vegas at about 5, we went to the strip and then to the Hard Rock Café where we all had dinner together. After dinner, the bus picked us up and we went to the famous Las Vegas sign, we had a little photo session there. I still don't have the pictures, I'll post them when I get them. 

Can we just take a second to talk
about how beautiful Arizona is?

Tuesday morning, we took off to go back to California.
Okay, I don't really want to talk about it, I'll just keep it short and say that I don't live at my old host family's house anymore. I won't say anything more about that.

Okay, so Wednesday I went back to school, and after school I had my first track meet at Ridgecrust College. It was pretty fun and I'm just going to be honest, I like track way more than Cross Country. But I'm actually not a big runner, so I just suck but that's okay.

Saturday, one of my friends celebrated her birthday, which is today, in a place called Knott's berry farm, which is kind of like six flags. We couldn't do many rides because we were in line for each one for at least one hour, so we did like 6 rides on one day.
Sunday I didn't do a lot, just studying and my host sister and I cooked pasta.

I don't know why the post is so short, even though I had a lot going on, but yeah.. Can't believe I only have 3 months to go. And sorry, I have no idea why parts of the post are orange and I hate myself for it, because every single post takes me about an hour but I can't even fix this. Sorry
