Ok people I finally made it again in here to write a blog post for you :)
Since I went to Las Vegas a few weeks passed and, like it's like in the States, I didn't spend the time sitting on my butt ;) so a few things happened. I will briefly tell you the things I can remember :D
First of all I went to Lincoln, for the wedding reception for the wedding in Las Vegas. It's kinda weird that wedding and the party are on 2 different dates but it was pretty cool though. It was on St. Patrick day so the main theme was Saint Patrick's day and since this day isn't celebrated in Austria it was pretty nice. Now I know what it's all about! Well the first explanation I got when I asked what exactly St. Patrick's day is was "oh that's just a day where people who think that they're irish or have irish roots get drunk." OOOKKK I thought sounds like a fun day ;)
In the end it turned out that when you don't wear green on that day people can pinch you, you see Leprechauns on the street and get shamrocks and other green stuff. In overall it's just a pretty GREEN day and make sure that you wear something green.
Ok what else did I do? Oh I was at the Karnival Kapers event at my school. I found out that that's a pretty big deal for my school and it really was! I mean i came there to help out with one of the games and when i went there what they Have there and it was so much! very many games food, bingo (there were lots of old people in this room , I wonder why only old people like Bingo :P ) and you could also get a HAIRCUT!! That's kinda weird :D But a the game where I helped out I just had to watch the kids play that game. It was called Skyball and the kids had to get balls in the holes. And every hole had certain points usw everybody knows what I mean. But the crazy thin about that was that I helped there for one and a half hour and there were so many people at this game that i didn't get a break at all! I was glad when i had finished because when i was done i noticed that I always said the same. "Good job, nice job, OMG that was awesome, very good score,..." I felt so dumb. But when I was on my way outta the school i stopped at the basket raffle thing where you had to buy 3 tickets for 5 $ and then you could through your paper into baskets in fron of the prices they offered, and they had A LOT! I thought " Oh I will just try it" and randomly threw my tickets into the baskets. And when i got home then i got a phonecall that i actually WON something! that was pretty amazing i hardly win ANYTHING!
Ok and the last thing I wanna share with you happened actually this weekend. So I went to the cinema with a few friends to watch "The Hunger games" finally because everybody was talking about it and about how cool it is and so on. I was so excited to finally see them really. AAAND then we finally got in (OMG the cinema tickets here are SO cheap only 7 dolllars for the ticket) and was even more excited when it started. I really loved the beginning and the other hour it's a pretty shocking and cruel story but it's so good though and it got even better and better and then BÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄM at a very good part of the movie there was a big little orange brownish- hole in the picture and I was like "Ahaa, that is probably supposed to be like that" but it got bigger and bigger really fast and then the whole picture was gone and white. And then i realized that that wasn't supposed to be like that, the film just got on fire or melted or whatever and I was like "Are you kidding me right now??" How can that happen? I found out that they have films right here and they can melt that can't happen in Austria because they use DVD's, I suppose.And then the picture went black, a few people left for a bathroom break and the rest waited. Waited for what's going to happen now, waiting for the film to start again/to continue but for a few minutes none of them happened. And then a woman came in telling us that she's really sorry but they can't fix the film, we all have to get outta here but we can get our money back and we get a free ticket for the cinema for any movie. At least something. So we went shopping in the mall and I guess I will go again to see the movie. From the beginning but it doesn't matter this movie is great :)
Okidoki I think I will leave you again, but I'm planning to make a new post pretty soon and to list all the things that are different here. I hope you all have a nice day I HAVE because it's os hot here like in summer, on the weekend we had over 30° C and I'm playing Tennis in this weather so I get a tan although it's hell when you play longer :D I love Nebraska when it's green btw it's so pretty......
Good see ya later then! :)
