Random

So once again another one of my weekends was so random, that I actually had to tell myself that I have to write this stuff down in my blog. The first thing that happend was as I was waiting for the train so I could go to another Rotex meeting a guy came up and started talking to me. I told him that my german ist very good, and than he said Ohh you speak english thats great. He than asked me if I could come around the corner where the bikes were at. My first thought was that I was probably going to be jumped or something, so I slowly went around the corner. A woman was standing there with a video camera and was making a video. I half smiled as she had the video camera pointed towards me. The guy than explained that he was doing an advertisment project for his school. I said that I would help and so I did. It was a little random and I couldent believe that that actually happend so I had to take a picture of the two people, and I was laughing as I said that this never happend to me in the states. The guy started talking to me, and than I borded my train and left. I was already running late because I always forget to switch my clocks backwards, and so my clock in my room is always one hour fast. I think that my host mom may have switched it because I told Margy and Clint that I would meet them at 2, and by the time I got on the train it was already past two but I thought it was 1. My train just missed margy and clint as they were heading to Koln because they had to meet with the other exchange studnets and get there tickets to Aachen. I didnt know what train to take so I randomly got on a train, I didnt even know where it was going. Clint than called me and asked where I was, I asked a man what the next stop was earlier and he said Koln so lucky for me I was on the right train. I told clint I was going to Koln and than he asked if I was going to the Main station, I really didnt know where at in Koln I was going. So he told me that he and margy would wait at McDonalds for me at the main train station in Koln. Not even two minutes after talking to him did I find out that I was at the main train station. I couldent call clint back because I never put money on my phone, actually I dont know how to put money on my phone. So I waited at McDonalds, and clint and margy later came up. I was a little upset because they didnt wait for me at Koln, and they were upset that I was late and didnt call them. It was nothing to get really upset about though becase we were all there now. I was glad that they waited for me, when clint told me that the train to aachen had already left and they almost went on it. finally we got on our train and went to Aachen. When we got there Margy and I had no clue where to go, but Clint had everything ready and lead the way. Finally we mad it to the place where Rotex was having us stay and we got in there. The last Rotex meeting was bad, but this one seemed even worse. We took a tour of a glass making place which was okay, but we also took a tour of Aachen which was really boring and cold. We had so much free time in the gym and of course all the people from the U.S are in one place, and all the people from other countries are with their countries.... for the most part. If being bored didnt ruin the mood someones cell phone got stolen so they had us all go into a room and one by one they took us out and checked our luggage.... it took so long and was so boreing that I really would of rather been alone at home than there. The cell phone was never found, and even the people from Mexico and Brasil didnt even want to party... but even without all the parties we still hardly got any sleep. Lucky for Clint and Margy and a deck of cards the trip was not so boring. They even taught me how to play yucker ( not sure if I spelt that right) which was actually a really fun and addicting card game. Clint Margy and I left early becaue it was Clints host brothers birthday and even if it wasnt we still just wanted to get out of there. Once again we ended up at Mcdonalds in the Koln train station when clint told me to look to my right... I gave him a wierd look before looking towards my right and I saw a lady holding napkins on her head, and she had blood all over the top of her coat. After that the food didnt look so appetising but I was still hungry so I finished margys sandwich.... no I didnt have any food besides that so I wasnt complty pigging out at McDonalds. I over heard the lady and the Police man that the lady had gotten hit by a car, I am not sure exactly what happed to her because I could not understand anything besides walking, and than a car.... so im pretty sure that is what happend. My weekend seem so random and was actually such a long weekend. Normally random things turn out to be good,,, im still trying to figure out if this was a good random or a bad random group of things... well I better be off to decide the answer to my question ( To Be a good random, or Not To Be a good random.... that is my question)

Haha, Hannah you haven't changed one bit. I'm scared some time you will jump in to a random persons van with guns and masks on because they offer you candy hahaha.

Not to mention that this Rotex stuff sounds suspicious.

Hannah said...

Rotex is exchange students who came back, and they set up weekends for the exchange students to have a chance to see each other... I just think that they do it to get money because we have to pay 5 euros to go, and that doesnt include all the train tickets we have to buy and than they hire some old tour guide that doesnt know how to even speak german.... and I had to go around the corner anyway because I was in the bike thing and it was the only way out and towards the train station, and eucker is a gun game :D and I have a good sense of direction with trains I knew that trains stop at a main station and from there I could find Koln if I didnt get on the right train but I did alot of stuff randomly I suppose.... and no I really havent changed much im still the hannah everyone knows.

The sisters and me said...

I am glad that I knew you would be going on a Rotary student exchange trip this weekend, but it didn't sound very good from the start.

Hannah be careful not everyone is a 'nice guy."

I know all the trains end up at the same place, and are not to hard to figure out.

But when your alone it becomes a risk if your late and miss friends then have to return or figure things out after that.

Okay we are all worried about you now, don't do any of those things again, we want Hannah back!
