The Departed

Now I am talking worse than before. This movie was full of bad words. At the ending it was very funny but after a while in each sentence the words F* was used, it was such a good movie. Sarah and I made fun of it when we went out. I asked her: sarah do you know what? F* you!
We did this till I dropped her of at her house, you have to see this movie when it is coming out in Germany! And in this one Leonardo is looking better than normal!
BUt don't be shocked about the ending, because Sarah and I were...
Sarah had a great idea: we should play a drinking game to it. Every time someone says F* you, you have to take a sip of your drink. We would all pass out after 10 minutes.
We will do it, when I am back because I am not aloud here, but when I am back then .....

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!!!

I wish you all a spooky day!

The real Halloween is standing in front of the door and I had to be dressed up again, although I am not in the mood. But I did it for the kids. So around six the friends of my hostfamily arrived with their kids and we started to go out for Trick or Treat
it was so cute! I wasn't sure if I really should go to our neighbours house and say:
TRICK OR TREAT
So I was standing more in the background to watch the kids how exited they were. Although we only went to five or six houses the kids got a lot of candy...
Later we had some mexican dinner and then I left to Judith to show her how stupid I was looking. She was laughing and told me this would be typical for me, to look like this. Is this good or not? I have no idea!
We went then to Starbucks to have some coffee, ja I was still wearing my costume! Nobody said anything, not you are looking good or something. Nothing!!! Not even an Happy Halloween.
Mmmmh, I wished somebody would have told me you are looking gordeous or something like this!

This is my hostfamily dressed up for Halloween

Beauty and the Beast (Jennifer and Randy)

CJ as Superman Kylie as Snowhite Cameron as a Pumpkin

WE LOVE EACH OTHER SO SO MUCH!!!!

AND I AM HAVING SO MUCH FUN BEING A PUMPKIN

HALLOWEEN MORNING

Here is a typical day with Kylie: Baking and painting (stamping feed and hands on paper). She is most of the time a really cute girl. I mean when she is not in a bad mood, like every girl can be, right?! So today we did some cookies for Halloween. I invited Sarah over and so she was looking at us, what a mess we did. It was fine! It was funny doing Halloween cookies, ghosts and other stuff, but after a while I got crancky, because normally I bake on my own and needn't to wait for someone, but at these moments I always count till 10 and sometimes it helps. I noticed that german cookies are not working here, because the oven is totally different from our one at home. So some were burned on the bottom and the other ones melted over the whole plate. Okay, no one will eat german cookies here, because it is not working. Bloody hell!!! Why I am standing in the kitchen for so long when it turns out in shit! After this I was in a really bad mood and I had to clean the kitchen before Randy would come home with CJ from the haircut. I turned into a monster. I was really unzufrieden!!!! hahaha







But there is someone HERE who can rescue my day when I am crancky or sad. And here HE is, my little boy

Doing Pumpkins

My first time carving a Pumpkin. Usually it takes around one hour to finish your Pumpkin, but I was sitting in front of my one two and a half hour!









First of all Jennifer (my hostmum) told me I have to cut the head of this guy of. For my first time, I think, I did a good job 15-20min is good! Then I draw the face on my Pumpkin, I did a really friendly one. Before you cut the eyes, mouth, nose out you have to get all this stuff out of the Pumpkin, which is really iihh but here are the seeds inside, which Randy used later. It is a lot of work but really funny because we were listening to Halloween music like Ghostbusters...
When Sarah called I was near done with my Pumpkin and she told me that she wanted to do some stars on her Pumpkin. Mmmh, when she is doing some stars on hers then my one would look really boring next to hers. Anyway my one was really boring next to the other ones. Randy did eyes and a mouth like Spongebob, Jennifers was really cute and CJs had ears.
So I started my next project on my Pumpkin: I wrote down HAPPY HALLOWEEN
It was a lot of work but my Pumpkin named Happy Booh was perfect!
Ah the seeds: Randy got them out of this sticky Pumpkin stuff and put them in the oven with butter and salt. They were really good when we ate them, more better than out of a package

Halloween Party

Yeah, today is my first Halloween in my life! Sarah and me we are going as girls from the 80's and we will look very stupid. In the morning I went to this Arts and Craft store to get a different black T-shirt because I decided to cut it and to put glitter on it. I bought all my stuff and went then to Walgreens to get some stuff for my face. I payed a lot, but who cares, it is Halloween!
When I came home I coloured my T-shirt pink and put glitter on it., but the colour didn't work in the end, but the glitter was still there. How is an 80s girl looking like, I was thinking. I would say bad as it is possible! I took purple eyeshadow, pink rouge, glitter around my eyes, huge earrings in form of stars, an ugly pink necklace, bracelets and my hair had to be very huge. I was laughing when I saw the result how I was looking. It was funny! I waited for Sarah to come over because I was bored after I finished with my outfit. Half an hour later she arrived and she was screaming when she opened my door, but she wasn't looking better than me!!!
She dressed up and we went to Panera (one of my favorite little restaurants) to eat dinner at 4 o'clock. We had fun, because the people there were looking at us if we would be silly. I can say: Yes we are!!!
After our little dinner, we went to the train station to go downtown Chicago. In the next three stops we met Paddy and Andreia in the train , and they were looking really good
So we got Downtown and took a taxi to the HI hostel, were the Cultural Care Halloween party was.
There we met our friend Kelly, who was there with her friend Kelly, who is also from Australia. They came in a limo, I wish we would have done the same instead of going by train! Kelly came as the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. She was really cute looking and her friend Kelly had the funniest outfit I have ever seen. That is the reason why she won at the end of a costume contest
LOOK AT SARAH SHE WAS REALLY GOOD!
I wasn't dancing a lot because I preferred to chat with people I met in the training school. I haven't seen them a long time and we noticed that we are living very close together!
The trainride home with Sarah was funny. The ticket collector started talking to us when he heard our accents and was talking the whole ride home.
I enjoyed the night and it was good to see all these guys again. Don't think it was only a girls party, NO, there where a lot of boys who came here as AuPairs.....

Zoo with the kids

Here everything happened yesterday! Sarah, the kids and me we went to he Zoo in Brookfield which is around 45 minutes away from Palatine, where I am living. It wasn't really cold that day, especially not for me because of pushing this bloody stroller wiuth two kids in it. Kylie could walk but it would take us too much time! sarah and me we were really exited to see a real Racoon
But for me the reindeer was the best one because it was named like my mum. Look at it, it is cute!!!!
By the way, although it is cute and named like my mum, she is not so lazy like this ;-)

After a while I became crancky because the kids kept asking if I would by them something. Hello? I am not eaarning a lot of money, yeah I knew this before, so how should I buy something? Tell kids they are not allowed to have Candy liek other kids, how? They always start crying. I didn't when I was little! I always said, okay then next time. I was such a good kid, made never problems was never in a bad mood.... hahaha
Especially for my sister we went to the giraffes, she loves them, to take some pictures for her. I am a good actor: Look at this photo I am smiling although I could have screamed!!!

Thank YOU Sarah that you went with the kids to the kids Zoo! Luckily I needn't to touch these stinky goats, because I was standing outside with Cameron. He was sleeping, happy me!

Last stop was Australia, for Sarah! I think she felt home, did you?!
I was pissed at the end of the day. Had a headache and whatever....
Yes and at night I stood up with fever. That is way I was so easy pissed! NOT because of the kids, no never! ;-)

THE FRAY

12.15 meeting at Sarahs place to get ready to go to Kelly
12.40 We are leaving to pick up Paddy and Andreia
12.50 We are on our way to Gurnee to pick up Kelly. We left Sarahs car at her place and she drove us to Wisconsin. She lives only 40 mins from Milwaukee away
????? We are on our way to Milwaukee and had a lot of fun
We arrived in Milwaukee and got lost because there were so many road constructions there which not only confused our driver Kelly
We haven't seen a lot from Milwaukee, okay before the girls will kill me, we were driving around through the city. We went to an Irish pub, which was really good for me hahaha no Alcohol! Our last stop was a cafe with very unfriendly people inside. The coffee wasn't good, nothing is better than Starbucks!!! We didn't really spend much time in Downtwon Milwaukee
Do you guys like my new head?
We went around seven to the concert. Jepp I bought a T-shirt from this band :-)
We didn't get really good places, because Sarah and I wanted to buy some band shirts and they didn't take my bloody credit card, so we had to go outside to get to the ATM and then line up again to go through the security search. . I know Sarah it was my fault that I never have cash with me ;-) and then we were standing in the samllest room I have ever seen for a concert

The band before The Fray did a good job but Kelly, Sarah and me we got bored after while. When the main band came our feet hurt so much that we started to think about when it will be finished. It was a really nice concert although I only knew two songs of the band, but I am looking forward to get their CD.
Typical girls always they have to go to the bathroom ;-) Sarah und ich sind nach dem Konzert zur petrol station rueber gelaufen, weil McDonald's zu hatte, um ein Klo zu finden. There were some black guys and when one of them saw us he asked Sarah if she would have 93cents, crazy I know. She gave him a Dollar and he blessed her and started talking to us. Anyway at the end I decided not to go to the bathroom because it was discusting! We got a little into panic when one guy was looking at us and said:Hey baby... You never know in the USA, you can get a gun here with 16!!!!
We are still alive
Oh gosh, before I forget it, someone threw up at the concert, really yummy ;-)

We took this photo on our way back to Chicago while Kelly was driving. Was funny when she pulled always over to the other side ;-) We can be happy that there were no cars behind us and no police around!!!
Guys never do this in your life it is too dangerous
