Everytime i think of "Host Family" it makes me think of parasites
or some weird gross host disease living in my body. BLECHH!
I wonder if they like to read though, seeing as their name is Bookers,
anyway, yes, so sorry for rambling on and on, i know it must be quite painful for you.
Where was i now?
Ahh yes, they emailed me back.
it turns out, there are only 3 daughters.
Sarah, Kate, and Hannah.
'cause i was thinking, why would
you name twins 'Kate' & 'Kathleen'
....they're practically the same names.
But AFS made a slight error, because Kathleen is often addressed as Kate or whatever. I DON'T KNOW. AFS, *tsk, tisk*, get with the program.
Continuing on:
they didn't email me photos of themselves,
so i still don't know what they look like.
I'm praying they aren't creepy looking.
Also, THEY HAVE CATS! yes, yes, yes!
They have 3: Mathilda, Black Cat (i'm not sure if that's the name or not..)
and the 3rd cat is either dead and/or missing.
I am so stoked about the cats, not the dead one, i mean the cats in general.
Also, they emailed me that: "the school has a high academic expectation"
Thank god i have been in geek classes all my life,
this should be easy sailing for me. *gulp*
Also, another cool thing is another girl from US is coming for 6 months.
Her name is Dorothy.
i wonder if she comes from kansas….?
Don't know much about her, will find out at a later due date, yes? yes.
Anyways, Kate, the 17 year old, plays field hockey.
i don't know if i want to play also becaaaaause:
a) i suck at hockey and
b) i don't really like it. at all.
i'm feeling up to playing on the rugby team, actually.
take out my anger. haha, i'm only kidding. never mind that.
Oh! and another thing that's pretty cool
is their dad is british like my mom.
So they're 1/2 new zealand-ish (?) and 1/2 british
while i am 1/2 american and 1/2 british.
i mean based on just their parents, not their whole ancestors….
Also, i have to get the train to school errr' day.
i can't decide if this is an inconvenience or if this is cool.
Anyways, i'll leave you with this picture of what i woke up to this morning.
yes, i live in the middle of nowhere. On occasion, it can look pretty. But only on occasion.
