Everything is changing

Hey everyone
Everybody is starting to ask about how it is going and what I am doing and so on, and yes it has been a long time since last time I wrote something, but now I took time to write a little thing home to everyone :D
Lot's of stuff has happened since last but it's is hard to tell about everything and most of the things are just regular day life for me now but I will try to talk a little about what has happened we celebrated my little brothers birthday party by going out playing paintball which was a really cool experience :D I loved it :D and I was suppose to go hunting with my family a couple of weeks ago but since I had to go to a rotary weekend I couldn't and that sucked big time but we had a good weekend and experienced Carlsbad Caverns and Christmas lights on a river :D that was a beautiful experience football is now over and I have started playing basketball and golf the tournaments in golf is first going to be help in January and the same with the season games in basketball but we started the preseason games we finished 3rd and 2nd in our two first tournaments in basketball and we have one left in the end of December the level here is a lot higher than it is back home but it is really cool to play with these guys :D
 The top of Mt. Cristo Del Ray we climbed it along with thousands of  others we had a good time with all the family afterwards

We were at a wedding with all of the family three sweet girls from Arizona :) but still it's family :D 

we have one week left of school which is finals so we have a lot of testing after this we go to second semester where I will change all of my schedule so I can try something differently which is going to be a lot of fun. The rotary is still looking for a second host family for me even though I love the family I am staying with it could be fun to try somewhere else :D my extended my trip so I will be coming home in the start of August instead of the start of July so that I can participate in RYLA (Rotary Youth Leadership Awards) which is a youth leadership camp for young people as me :D it is going to be a really good experience :D I have made new friends both from school and from around town and yeah also from NM I have been here for 4 months now and I have around 7 left time is flying by and I love if you should have any questions feel free to contact me :D

HOMECOMING!!!!

Hello everybody
Yesterday was homecoming and it was really great, I had so much fun but let me start from the beginning, when it is homecoming over here it is a whole week so we started out Monday and the outfit for Monday was pyjamas  so we all had to come in our PJ's I had a rope unfortunately did I forget to take a picture that day so no picture there :D but Tuesday was Western that was a cool day we had a lot of fun :D about 50 % of all the school dresses up :D
 Me, Christa and Don

Wednesday was Kings and Queens for juniors but I didn't dress up because I didn't have any costume  Thursday was dress to impress so everybody had to look nicely and Friday was spirit day, but since I am on the football team I had to dress up nicely again and we had a pep-rally that was really a cool experience it is actually impossible to describe if people havn't been to one when everybody is in the gym and together with each other cheering and stuff :D Friday was also game day we didn't win with the varsity team but I played with the JV team Thursday were I scored my first touchdown it was about 65 yards so I was really happy :D

And yesterday it was homecoming that was also an experience worth to mention I went with a girl named Kimmy she is one of the athletic trainers 
This is me and Kimmy
The Boy has to buy a mum(the big thing Kimmy is holding) for the girl
and the girl a garder(the thing on my arm) for the guy

And here we are without all the stuff :D

We had a really good time we went to the dance with a group of people :D 

We ended up being a little bit more but this was some of the people I went with :D

Today I have a meeting with my counselor and we are going to have a great time :D I can't wait for next weeks football game and the basketball game on Tuesday :D everything is just so great :D 

That is all for now :D

FOOTBALL FOREVER !!!!

Hey everybody
It has been a while since last, and a lot of new things has happened, I'm just gonna tell about some of it not all.
I started at the Varsity football team as a wide receiver, but because I am an exchange student, they have to fill out some forms before I can play varsity but Today I played JV and we won 16 - 0 so that was great :D After that I was at a pool party for exchange students from El Paso and Juaráz and we all had a lot of fun :D school is going very good I've made a lot of new friends and almost everyone on the school knows me know so it's cool. I love being here :D next weekend we have a rotary introduction weekend and we are getting together with all the students in my district it's gonna be a lot of fun. I don't really have any pictures this time so you've to wait for next time with those :D I love it here and hope everything is good back home :D

Arrivel

Hello Everyone
I finally arrived in the United States of America, I arrived in El Paso 10 15pm to days ago, so we were early, and when we got there none of our host families have gotten there so we were all alone, and we were like "oh what do we do" but we went down to get our luggage and when we got it our families arrived so they were a little late for the big welcoming but they found us and they were all very cool.

Me and Christian (the other guy who lives here in El paso












Yesterday I was out swimming for about 5 hours and didn't bring too much sun lotion, so today I look like a red shrimp, but it was really fun swimming and playing basketball in the water with my new family. At evening my parents threw me a party, so I could meet all the family and taste all of the Mexican food. I also got chili candy and it tasted so good.


My new house is so great and so big
 The family suburban they don't even have a car they only have this one a van and a truck it's so cool 

This is the family tree house they build it and it took three years, it's is really big











And the view from the top of the tree house you can see most of El Paso
My bed 
And my clothes got its own room 

That is all for now folks I'm going to a birthday party with the family today so exited and on monday we are going to enroll me at my school can't wait :D

EL PASO

Så har jeg skrevet med min counsellor, hun er fra El Paso og det er der jeg kommer til at bo. Jeg skal gå på Silva Health Magnet High School i El Paso, det er en universitets forberedne High school, som forbereder en på at skulle læse Medicin på UNI. Jeg glæder mig rigtig meget til jeg skal afsted, har snakket med en udvekslingsstudent fra El Paso, som måske er min kommende værts søster, så skal snart møde hende og snakke med hende. På torsdag skal jeg til møde med min rotary club, hvor vi skal til grisefest, og på søndag skal jeg til Rotex Picnic, og se alle de andre udvekslings studenter igen :)
