so i actually think along with my baby brain i am getting amnesia as i cant for the life of me remember what i did last week (so it cant have been that exciting) but here goes....
so early on in the week i am pretty sure i didnt do anything. monday was a nightmare with the kids because they were tired etc. so it was a fun day with them fighting, biting, kicking and screaming....
tuesday things went fine and then i babysat whilst catherine went to her bookclub dinner.
on wednesday i just went swimming and had german class and was supposed to meet up with hillary and jenny but we then moved it to thursday. so at 8.30 i met hillary (because jenny couldnt come) at haupt bahnhof and we went to the 'movie bar' for dessert and a drink. hillary is really nice but she is a bit me me me. i dont think i said one thing about myself the whole night. jenny was like "i told you sooooooo"
then on friday i had a 1/2 break (not happy) so we could go into town to go 'candle dipping' the twins were too young for it though and they got bored easily. i on the other hand just got wax all over my jeans while maxine was swinging her HOT candle stick around. did you know i just ironed over it and the wax came off... cool!
so then i went home early so i could go get my german stuff and my gear to sleep at mandas house. after class lacey and i went with amanda to her house in schofflisdorf. it is like farm land and she has such a huge walk from her train station, it was heaps fun in the rain too! but we had an awesome night. we watched mandas favourite show 'freaks and geeks' and had a really nice dinner of bread, salad and cheese. we also got some really good wine so it was a fun night. then on saturday becuase im a loser we all went to winterthur (pronounced vintertour) i ordered some books online so i thought that they would get sent to me ... ummm no i had to go and get them. it was good though. winterthur is such a nice city and only 1/2 hour from zurich hb. amanda had to leave early but lacey and i walked around and did some shopping and had lunch.
then i went back to zurich and bought some more stuff!! i have a disease called shopaholic.. so on saturday i bought: a hairdryer, luggage, batteries, 2x pairs of jeans, and some other stuff but i dont remember.
on sunday it was a lazy day but i woke up early to speak to mum and mel. it was so good to see whats happening with mel and all the people at the daily!! then in the afternoon i went for a swim and then i met lacey and amanda at hb as there was a marathon going on through th whole city and amanda was competing. the city was amazing, it was all lit up and they had slide shows with paintings on them reflecting on the builidings. i took lots of photos and amanda did really well in her race. i was wearing so many clothes too but i still was freezing. at one stage i thought my fingers were going to fall off seriously.
we then went out to dinner at sams pizza which was soooo good as we were all starving. i had a spinach pizza and it was really good!
on monday i only had to work a half day as the monnerats went to south africa. we drove to the airport and then i drove the car home. it was really sad saying bye to them because they are like my family now too but i quickly went home and packed my bag for munich and then went to see the new james bond movie with jenny, lacey, amanda, svetland and her friend christophe. i got home really late on monday and then got up at 5.30am this morning to make my 6.26 train to zurich. i wanted to be early so i could find where the bus got us from. i found it so easily so i just stood in the dark for an hour waiting for the bus!
the trip was nice and i saw heaps of snow. my hotel is also really cute and typical old fashioned german style. this afternoon i just went around on foot and then went to the markets at night. my hotel is right near the haupt bahnhof so i am close to everything. tomorrow morning i get a free breakfast so i am going to make sure i am up for that and then we will see what i do tomorrow. its a bit strange being by myself and i might start talking to myself on this trip cause i feel a bit lonely but its ok I will be home soon and i am going to try and squeeze lots into my little trip without spending too much money hahahaha
