April April!

During the day while I'm working I think about things I should do when I'm done like study german, write emails, clean my room, write in my blog-whatever...I guess my bedroom door as some kind of special brain washer thing that makes me forget about those things. I only remember to get on facebook and watch the daily show/colbert report. Hmm...
To my credit I have seemed to be pretty busy these past few weeks. The day before Jessica and her family came I took a train to Strasbourg for the day because I had to get my visa. I had some issues with the visa, well actually really the only issue was this woman (...well there is another word for what she was) I spoke with on the phone at the Swiss Embassy in New York who tried to tell me, in the rudest way I've ever been spoken to on the phone, that I would need to go to New York to get the thing. Luckily, she was the only one that seemed to have this idea. So I took a day trip to Strasbourg. I enjoyed it, did some shopping, spoke some french. I realized how independent I am, which I like to be. I just get on the bus, and an hour later I'm in a different country with only an address of the consulate. I didn't even call ahead. I didn't even know I was arriving there 20 minutes before the place closed, so lucky me.
On Tuesday, I went with the whole Geiger family and with Jess and parents to Lucerne. We first took a boat on the lake, then we headed up to mount Pilatus which was nice, cause I just think it would be a little sad if I came to Switzerland and never went up a big mountain. In the late afternoon/evening we walked around Lucerne a bit. It's funny because the whole time I enjoyed having the kids around. Sarah just makes things a little more interesting. However, I sat next to her on the car ride home and I was dying to get out of that car. That just how it is with her. Jess describes her like this, and I would to, "One minute you want to give her big hug, then the next you want to pull your hair out." I think described in similarly before.
Yesterday, I went to Rebecca's for her birthday dinner. Debbie was there too. She wished for borritos, so that's what we had. I miss my tex mex food. I think she had a good birthday. However, I talked to her today and she said she and her host sister were throwing up the whole night.
My parents and I are trying to plan the details of their visit which in in less than one month now! I know that will be a good time.
I guess I should explain the blog title-It's the German version of April fools. It's funner to say I think.
