Dear PPle, my dad asked me last time about the Blog, and the one thing that came up to my mind was... OMG I forgot about that but at the same time, I was so busy with school and basketball, that there was not a whole lot of time left for blogging... Because we need some time for social life... HeheSo let me give you an update, how everything is going and what we did... The pictures show some stuff, but not everything :)
After October there were the finals, so a lot of studying well no, not as much as in Germany, but some stress because of projects homeworks and all that kind of stuff... I was glad when everything was over, and we could finally call for winter break...
On thing about winter break... We are basketball players... they do not have a real winter break... We had 6 days off over christmas and that's it! (well we practiced hard, and that's why we are here, to play Games and go on winning streaks ;) )During this time, I had two visits, one from Marie and one from my dear family. And what did my brother say, once he was here, you know I just came because of YOU ;) THANK YOU!! I saw them in San antonio, where we were for a tournament after Christmas... (unfortunatly we didn't bring a win home, and for those of you who talked to me afterwards, know what happened that we didn't bring home the first one...) After that we played Temple at home, and the Fam was around and could see how everything is ;) Not just how amazing the gym is, they saw the weights room, and all the rest that belongs to the atlethic departement... you know everything is different from home...
So yes, we won against Temple, which was a big win, and gave us some more confidence, until the season finally started... ;) Unfortunatly we lost our MAC opener to Buffalo, but went on winning some more games, and a big one against Bowling Green, who was MAC champs the last three years and went on into the sweet 16 in the NCAA tournament... SO yes a big one... Right now we are in first standing tied with BG (Bowling Green) and the battle for the first place will be tomorrow... 2 pm So let's kick BG ;) And we will be all alone up top... (And yes wednesday we took our revenge against Buffalo...we won by 29...is that enough? =) )Second Semester started a long time ago... well let's see I would guess 1 month and a half, and I can tell you guys, this semester is not fun... 19 credit hours takes a lot of my time... But you know I love the gym, so yeah social life is kind of not present, and it still works... The only thing that is really going on my nerves are these homeworks, projects or assignments that I have to do for every single class period... These professors this semester are really stressful... Two classes have quizzes every friday (ARG) One has homework turn in every friday, another one has an article due every tuesday and an assignment due thursday... Then my english class... OMG... this is crazy no not crazy... busy work... that's probably the best I can say... O yes I am taking a calculus class... a little different...and I still can't think math in english... I am still thinkin french...even though I took it for 2 years in german... haha
Well yes busy work... 6 classes and no week passes where I have nothing that is graded... The class I hate the most this semester is my COM class... (Comunication / Public Speaking) A must for business majors... and OMG... these speaches are horrible... too much work... NO FUN...
Well yes... hope you are all doing well, and I am really looking forward to see you guys in the summer ;) LESS THAN 3 MONTHS ;)
Enjoy, Greets and Hugs
Mich
