update #24 - fish

days count: 260, days to go: 69

The past week has been crazy stressful. I have a lot of quizzes and many track meets have been going on, tomorrow we have another one. 
We found a little puppy. He was running on the street in the morning, like a week ago probably. My host mum picked him up. He was starving, you could see all his bones and it was crazy. I don't have to mention that I hate that there's people that treat their dogs like crap. It honestly makes me so upset.
Okay, whatever, we named him fish. He's a mix of a Pit bull and Lab, and he's hella cute.
We're all so in love with him and he's doing way better than a week ago. He loves riding in the car with us, playing with other pups and sleeping. 


However, as I already mentioned, track is getting busy, but it seems like we're making progress. 
On the last meet on wednesday, Nadja and I qualified for a big meet tomorrow at a college in Bakersfield. So, I think the practice finally shows off.

honestly the worst picture ever

All exchangers got their homebound flight informations, and not that it's like bad here or anything, but we're honestly all ready to go home. Not in a bad way though, we just miss our friends and family and like the cultural things. I even miss Swiss schools haha, never expected that to happen. We're like at the point where the year is about to be over and where we're like totally fine with it. Obviousely I'll really really miss my friends and my family here though. I think the whole situation will change multiple times, the day when I'm gonna leave, I will want  to stay I'm pretty sure. Whatever, there's still a lot of time. Tomorrow is a minimum day, but the track athletes have a meet, so it will get kinda late.
And then we have a week of spring break.
