Even een korte update voor de mensen die het nog niet gehoord hadden van wat er hier allemaal aan de hand is.
Vrijdagavond is een jongen uit mijn wiskunde klas, na een feestje op weg naar huis (dronken) tegen een boom aangeknalt. Hij lag aan de beademing en had zijn spinal cord gebroken. zaterdagochtend hebben ze de stekker eruit getrokken. Iedereen was upset. And everybody is saying that they got a 'wake up call' cuz apparently a lot of people drive drunk.
It is so stupid! It makes me really upset! And everybody was upset saterday but saturdaynight everybody was acting normal if they already had forgotten. Nobody talked about it, and people were still drinking and partying like nothing happend.
Its weird here. If one of you guys, or somebody would die I'd be broken! I can't imagine, what I would do. Or if I was his friend that let him drive home that night. I'd feel terrible.
People are saying now that he stopped drinking at 7 (drove home at 12) and that he just got of the way and crashed himself into a tree. Its weird. All the boys ignore it and a lot of girls are really upset. Adam was on his soccer team.

This is the 3rd kid at my school that died this year. (1st got shot, 2nd got hit by a drunk driver).
Apperently in America every school loses 1kid a year cuz of alcohol believing the statistics. Our principal is gonna make a huge deal out of this (ofcourse). This is his 31st kid that he has lost cuz of alcohol in his career as principal. It also sucks because it is Springbreak. Some of his friends are like in hawaii, mexico of philliphines, and they don't know if they should call them cuz that would ruin there springbreak and there is nothing that they could do if they'd came back. Its such a big deal but it seems like nobody cares.
It just seems unreal. And its gonna be so weird on tuesday during math I sit behind him and 2 of his best friends are in that class. It's just unbelievable. I don't think a lot of people realize it yet.
His best friend called us and was like, 'yeah, it happends' and they just went smoking in the park..


Okay nu wat vrolijkers. Zondagochtend ging ik met onze huishoudster mee naar haar kerk. 'Black Church' OMG! it was unbelievable!! Toen we naar binnen gingen werd ik gelijk geknuffeld door z'n hele grote vrouw, en iedereen noemde me sweetie and honey etc. ik werd ook wel ontzettend aangekeken toen ik naar binnen ging ik was het enige witte (+blonde) meisje. Ik werd aan iedereen voor gesteld en toen begon de service. The music started like you were in a concert. Not just boring classical music. No it was music with a beat, and their voices are amazing!! They started singing and the whole church started dancing and ging klappen. Het was like a party! Iedereen vrolijk met elkaar, het was 2,5uur maar vloog voorbij. Ik had zo veel lol met die mensen, en we gingen dansen enz. en die vrouwen waren zo van 'girl, ya dance like a black person, it's amazing' het was zo grappig!

Na de kerk hadden we familie (dag) op de countryclub Oakwood! Oakwood is echt z'n heel mooi oud gebouw met golfbaan, tennisbanen, zwembad etc.
We gingen eerst tennissen toen eten en daarna heeft Jenny geprobeerd om mij te leren golfen.
Nou ik heb er niet echt geduld voor maar na de 5de slag kreeg ik hem dan eindelijk in dat geel/oranje gebied :D
Toen nog geput, daar was ik beter in.

Maargoed, het is nu superlekker weer en ik ga niet nog langer achter de pc zitten!
Ik heb voorjaarsvakantie btw.

Vertrek donderdag naar Florida!!
