What else is new..

so... i haven't updated in a long time. i have been really busy, which is a good and bad thing. here's a list of things that have happened in the past few months (it doesn't feel like months though):

1. volleyball season was great-- it allowed me to meet a lot of amazing girls.
2. i have been really involved in yearbook-- my partner, aliza, and i work on the middle school and elementary school sections. we have so much fun with kids and love being annoying to the seniors in yearbook class.
3. i have improved my german a lot. my german friend, anna, would probably laugh at me but whatever. i love speaking german.
4. herbstmesse in basel-- 350 bfa kids took over the city and the bumpers cars. it was pretty fun :)
5. i have been introduced to a lot of awesome music i have never heard of.
6. i got my nose pierced :) which was awesome.
7. i am already sick of this cold weather.
8. i am feeling so at home and apparently a lot of people feel at home in my home-- i come home to a full living room most days. and people have started inviting themselves over.
9. i have enjoyed going to the dorms so much. storch-- my favorite girls dorm. sonne-- a guys dorm which has really sweet cool guys.
10. i have experienced drama, tears, laughing, sleepovers, hair-dying, getting troughed at storch (and freezing my butt off), walking EVERYWHERE, and being with so many chill friends.

so summary: i love where i live. i love almost everything about it. i love the people, the diversity, the amount of languages i hear in the hallways (which actually just makes me jealous), the random boringness of what to do after school.

unfortunately my camara is broken so i don't have many new recent pictures. but here are a few:
