Så er jeg tilbage med en lille update..

Har haft en meget stille weekend, men er nu ved at komme mig over lektier, forkølelse mm. Har tilbragt en del tid med at grine af folk for det er jo Halloween herovre i stooooor stil! Til gengæld er der nogen der har glemt at fortælle amerikanerne at man skal klædes ud som noget skræmmende, så de klæder sig bare ud. Jeg har set alt fra tyroler-fyre til Flavor Flavs (http://en.wikipedia.org/ wiki/Flava_Flav) til piger i alt for små miniskirts..

Jep jep.. har faktisk indtil nu ikke været med i festlighederne, men har planer for tirsdag for det er den rigtige halloween aften. Der skal eftersigende være et stort optog i den gamle bydel og så er der en teatergruppe på skolen der opfører ”The Rocky Horror Picture Show”… det kunne jo være det bar et par øl med sig.

I weekenden har jeg dog været ude at se et par museer sammen med Amy og Rebeccas (mine roommates) ven Nick. Vi tog på ”the national archives”, hvor de ligger inde med alskens gode dokumenter f.eks. forfatningen og uafhængighedserklæringen – ret sejt. Bagefter var vi på ”museum of natural history” hvor de bl.a. har den store hope diamant som vist nok er den største af sin slags i verden. Udover det har de en ret god samling af dinoer, bl.a. et helt tyranosaurus skelet.

Ellers ikke det helt store herfra, men læg lige mærke til, at der nu er billeder af mine roommates!

Jeg håber i har det godt alle sammen derhjemme.
Mange knus,
Anette :)




So I’m back with a small update..

I have had a very quiet weekend, but I am now almost over homework, a cold etc. I have spent quite a good amount of time on laughing at people because it’s Halloween over here big-time! Somebody has forgot to tell the Americans that the trick is to dress up as something scary – so they just dress up. I have seen guys dressed in old-fashioned german Tyrol style, I’ve seen Flavor Flavs (http://en.wikipedia.org/ wiki/Flava_Flav) and I’ve seen girls in way too short miniskirts..

Yes yes.. I have as a matter of fact not been participating yet, but I do have plans for Tuesday which is the “real” Halloween day. After what I have been told there is going to be a procession in the old part of town and a group of students are performing “The Rocky Horror Picture Show”… it might even involve a few beers…

This weekend I have been to a few museums with Nick, a friend of Amy and Rebecca’s (my roommates). We went to “the national archives” where they have all sorts of great documents including the constitution and the declaration of independence – pretty cool! Afterwards we went to the “museum of natural history” where they for instance have the large hope diamond which is said to be the largest of its kind in the world. Aside from the diamond they also have a pretty good collection of dinos including an entire skeleton of a T-rex.

I think that’s all from here, but please notice that I now have pictures of my roommates on the blog!

I hope that everybody is doing great!
Lots of hugs,
Anette :)
