Okey update on what have been going on for the past 2 weeks! Well I've been fishing with Wesley amd he said his goal was to make me completly redneck before I go home. So if I come of the plan wearing ripped jeans, a flannel button down, cownot boots and a knife or a gun you know who to blame. haha. Then I went to the last chamber singer concert to watch my friends perform for the last time and it was beautiful. After that it was back to Wesley's house to have a bonfire, and later that night his mom brought me to Mariana and Lenea where pretty much all the chamber singers where and had a sleepover. So that was one very fun and busy Friday night. The Saturday afetr that we went to Harrisburg to see the capital building since Harrisburg is the capital of Pennsylvania. And on our way back we went go-carting and we also stopped by Kitchen Kettle to get ice cream and pick up Kurt. Then Victoria, Kurt and I went to Julias to have a sleepover with Julia, Christian and Trevor. Sowe watched a movie and then went to be kinda early...like 1 am because i promised the guys I would make them Swedish pancakes for breakfast and we all needed to be in church by 10 am the next morning. So after we had finished all the pancakes the next morning we went to church and then we went to the end-of-year picnic with the rest of the exchange students and then I went to Kyle's to watch a movie. So that was one weekend. Hahaha busy or what :) 

 

Then it was a messed up schedule in school the entire last week because all the underclassmen(juniors, sophmores, freshmen) had testing so we had 2 days with earlu dismissal by 12.30 o instead of having a normal schedule we had 2nd, 3rd, 1st/5th lunch and then 4th period, very confusing haha. But otherwise it was pretty much a normal week with youth group and friends :). On Friday we went to Hershey park which is an amusement park about 1 hour drive from here. It was our senior trip that the school organized for us. So all the Seniors that wanted to go was aloud to go. So I spent my Friday at an amusement park with my friends instead of going to school...sounds like a fair deal to me. Afetr I got home Kurt came over and we watched Paranormal Activity 4 which completly freaked me out but anyway. It is a great movie if you feel like getting scared. Saturday I went to the family center to watch Lanchester got Talent which was a music talent competition in which the winner won $1000. So i went to watch my friend Trevor play and he placed in the top 3 so good ob to him!! Sunday I went to church and then just worked on a Science report that is due Friday. 

 

Yesterday was memorial day so we where all off work and school which was very nice! But my day started early because we went to order a cake to the going away party thing I will have on Sunday. And then I made Swedish pancakes(again) for the entire family and after that we went to a circus out at Hershey. It was a show called The Greatest Show on Earth and it was really good. Horses, clowns, elephants, acrobats and even tigers. Everything you need for a circus haha. Then we went home and had a bonfire here with a couple of friends. So we had a full house of teenagers, Victoria, Christian, Amanda, Cordell, Jason, Kelly, Bryan, Kyle and I. It was a great end to a great day!

 

Today was Tuesday which means youth group. Before I went to Kyle's to hang out, or at least that was the plan until "Victoria" called me saying I needed to come home....it turns out it wasnt Victoria it was Colin who called so it ended up with the 4 of us going back here hanging out and exploring the many barns they have here and walking one of the goats. Yes instead of walking the goat I came up with the brilliant idea of walking one of our 7 goats that we got just 2 weeks ago. Then we convinced the guys to come with us to youth group, where we today had a ce cream party and baptism. And then as always to endthe day we went to McDonalds as every Tuesday haha #America x). 

 

So that is pretty much what I have been upto the last weeks a lot of fun!! And the coming weeks will be just as much fun!!! 

 

Yay finally Friday just a couple of hours and then it is time for the weekend!! Hope you all had a great week! Yesterday Jane(my host mom) took me to a stable which she had talked to about maybe letting me ride a horse. So we went down to see what type of stable it is and what types of horses they have. It turns out that the owner has 6 Thoroughbreds that she has saved after they served some time on the track. We did not meet the owner but I meet the girl working there and she let me help her when she was longing her thoroughbred that she saved. Apparently her horse was a bag of bones in September last year and now he is in good shape. And apparently many of the horses at the stable are rescue horses. So i followed her around for about an 1 hour and she said that we should try to call the owner again and see if she has time to see me ride and if she would let me ride one of her horses. So if I'm lucky I might have an opportunity to ride a little before I leave!! :D

Otherwise not much has happened this past few days. Just school and having out with friends.

Hope everyone will have a great weekend!!

Right now I am sitting in 2nd period with Vanessa and waiting to show this weeks projects on the movie We are Soldiers. I got a bit bored so I though I would update you on what is going on. Yesterday I had youth group and I love it. I would never though I would like going to something like that but I do. The people are just awesome and it is so much fun!!! Later today we are going to Julia's again since it is her birthday today. It is also Kelly's birthday so Happy Birthday to the 2 of you.


Me and Vanessa! 

 

Time to watch the projects! Have a great Wednesday everyone!!

Love Desirée<3

right now I am Julia's house doing some homework before youth group and apperantly I haven't posted any pictures of her on my blog so here you go!

 

Despite all that happened friday we still went to Florida on Saturday and Im glad we did. It was nice to get away from reality and think about something else. So we went to Florida for the week with 15 other exchange students from Europe!! And it was so much fun!! The people was just amazing and we had a great time!! I have a ton of pictures that I will post when I get a chance I have like 2000 of them hahaha. SO we went to Disney World, SeaWorld, Kennedy Space Center, Adventure Island and just had the best time!! I really miss the friends I made there! We had rented 2 houses one for the 12 girls and one for the 6 boys and we were only at the our house where we played games and swam in the pool, my phone did go for a swim to but it survived..lucky me. And then we had to leave earlier than planned because we had our prom last Friday and we didn't want to miss that so we came home around 2 am on Friday morning and skipped school and got ready for prom. I will tell you ore about that later and put some pictures up :) 

 

Sunday night I got a call from my coordinator telling me that I have to move because Anne can't keep us because she has a heart condition and she is currently on medication so she is not aloud to drive which apparently is a qualification need to host exchange students. So I had less than 24 hours to pack all my stuff before she was coming to move me to my new house. Luckily I have some awesome friends that helped me. Victoria, Julila, Kyle and Colin came over and not only helped me pack they also loaded all of my things in Colins car. And later Colin and Kyle came back with icecream shaped as a Swedish flag to cheer me up and they alos packed the rest of my stuff!!!! 

 

So I am living with my tennis partner Victoria!! And her family is really nice and I think Im really going to enjoy living with them for the last 6 weeks here! And I am really thankful that they are letting me stay here and I am really thankful for all those that offered to take me in and help our situation! 

 

So this was my last 2 weeks and know things will hopefully calm down and go back to normal, which doesn't seem so bad right now.

De senaste två veckorna har varit lite små galna och jag har inte riktigt haft tid eller lust att uppdatera men nu är det väl tid att berätta lite vad som har hänt.

På torsdagen för 2 veckor sen togs min värdpappa in på sjukhus för han kunde inte andas. Jag fick inte reda på det här förrän på eftermiddagen efter skolan. Anna hade kört in honom på morgonen och vi visste inte riktigt vad som hände. Vi fick senare ett samtal från Anne som sa att läkarna visste inte riktigt vad som va fel att dom hade tagit tester hela dagen och att dom just nu trodde att det var cancer. Hon visste inte riktigt när hon skulle komma hem och att de va okej om vi ville gå upp till Ingunns familj och sova. Anne kom hem senare på kvällen och hon skulle tillbaka till sjukhuset igen nästa morgon.

Vi hörde ingenting på fredagen och på efter skolan så åkte jag hem till Wesley ca 1 timme senare ringer Karolina och säger att Dani( Daves dotter) hade ringt och sagt att om vi ville säga hej då till Dave så måste vi komma till sjukhuset. Så Wesley kör mig till Zacs hus där Karolina var och Tom som är Ingunns värdpappa hämta oss där. Vi visste inte riktigt vad som hände men att de var allvarligt.

Vi kommer till sjukhuset runt 7 på kvällen och hela Daves familj är där och ca 15 minuter senare gick Dave bort. Han hade haft lungcancer som hade spridit sig till hjärtat och även om den hade upptäckts tidigare så hade det inte funnits något dom hade kunnat göra. Detta kom som en fullständig chock för alla för vi trodde verkligen inte att någonting va fel han gick till jobbet på onsdag, sjukhuset på torsdagen och borta fredag....

Så på fredagen 19 Maj lämna Dave oss och han är saknad och älskad av många och vi kan fortfarande inte förstå vad som har hänt.
