Another awesome week!

There's been a lot of things going on this week, Patrick Frei came back the 22, last day of school, choir concert, graduation partys, baseball, going away party, senior class trip and first baseball game.

Can't remember what day we did this but I think it was some day last week. Anyway it was our last Choir Concert and we preformed a kind of dance and it was kinda cool i guess, they wouldn't let us have fun with it that much and like freak out and bust some moves during the dance, but I did it anyway haha :) It sucks that it's our last choir concert, i've had so much fun with it and I'm so happy i went our for it! :)

We also did some normal singing :)
So we went to pick up Patrick the may 22 at the Cedar Rapids airport, but he wasn't there, he hadn't land at all. He missed his flight in Chicago because his flight from Switzerland was late. So he had to spend the night there and take the next flight coming in the next day. So we went home again and went to some graduation partys, We all went to one badass man, Noel! It was fun, hung out with people, ate some awesome food and talked. Then George and Kyle dropped me off at two crazy mans grad party, Dan Loney and Tyler dudley! Same thing going on, but different people, and a comedy show :) Then I went back to Noel's house with Mac and Brittney, because he had a Kickass bonfire going on. Btw, according to Mac and Britt, only cool people piss their pants! lol. The bonfire was awesome :)

Hannah, Sam and I being kickass XD
Dan and his Gf
Yeah... I'm dancing.
Our Georgian exchange student Ilia was leaving tuesday so we had a little party for him Monday, we were just hanging out and chilling. Sang some karaoke and danced a lot! lol. It was pretty sweet, Ilia had a lot of fun. A good way to end your year in U.S, with your friends and family!
Nathaniel and I shaking our asses ;)
Doing the macarena dance! XD

Tuesday was last day of school, I was sad but almost everyone else was happy. It started with, P-ray, Maggie, Noel, Nathaniel and I going to the airport to supprise Ilia. It was sweet and he really appreciated it. Then we all went to school and missed first our, but it doesn't matter, it was totally worth it! And ofc April wanted a picture on our last day of school, DAAAANIEL I WANT A PICTURE WITH U!!! That was what she said, april is to the left. lol

After our last day of school, some friends and I went to Spencer's house to celebrate that our last day of school was over. We celebrated it the best way possible, the american way, with shooting guns and eating 4 big pizzas. First time shooting a gun and it was SOOO much fun haha! It was Spencer, Tanner, Noel, Shaun, Collin, Dan, Dana, Patrick Frei, and I, Sorry if I forgot someone. It was awesome, i've never shot a gun before so it was freaking sweet! We used like a 16 cal shotgun or something like that, and some other guns. We only shot targets, I would never ever shoot an animal! It was AWESOME! haha. And after that we went to baseball practice :) And after that, Jordan, Spencer, Tanner, Patrick and I went to the girls Softball game :)


The next day we went to Chicago with our class for our class trip! It was totally awesome but I have no pictures yet so I will do a blogpost about it later ;)

Dirty dancing/camping/ironman2/swimming kind of week!! :D




Last weekend was a GREAT weekend!! :) I'm sorry for publishing it so late btw, but better late than never ;)

Had my co-ed dance last Saturday and it was freaking awesome, we all kicked total ass!!! Literally, there is a part in the co-ed dance, time of my life, dirty dancing, where there is a guys part and we shake our asses ;) haha

There was a lot of stuff on the schedule, like A LOT, pre-school dance, elementary-school, middle-school and then all the high school girls dances, and of course the Co-ed! :D The high school girls dances was definitely the best part! They did probably like 3 dances and they were all really cool, especially the last one, the "Lady Gaga" dance. But before that was a lot of stuff, we had some competitions and some Macarena dancing and some modern line dancing ;) It was really fun :) But the most awesome part of the home show was... ofc co-ed ^^. One of the competitions that i volunteered to be in! :D


Nate, Collin, Me, Noel and Patrick looking studly! ;)

I was wearing black dress pants and dress shirt and red converse, which was awesome because my partner, Hope had a red dress! :) I wish that the guys would've worn a black tight sexy tank top instead though that would've been way more dirty dancing ish!!! Anyway we still looked really good... like always ;) haha. We did really good and we only messed up once, and you could barely see it, it was her fault... but don't tell her that haha lol ;) Otherwise we did awesome, George got it all on tape so it was pretty fun to see how we did and how it looked like :) We got our lift done perfectly and our awesome ending that we had barely practiced. So we pretty much nailed it and it was SOOOO crazy much fun!!!! It's sad that it's over though, Love dancing and wish it would've been longer! And then the Lady Gaga dance, guess who was Lady Gaga?? Well ofc it was Hope haha, always center of attention lol. The dance was really cool and they did it really really good, and the girls LOOKED damn good as well ;) Me and Hope, with her Lady Gaga outfit on.

After the home show was done I had to go to a stupid YFU camping thing where we were suppose to talk about going home to our countries. :( It was alright but it's always kinda awkward at those meetings, no one really talks, except for Ida and Hannah. I hung out with them the whole night and we were the only one sleeping outside, we slept by the fire all night :D The rest of the people were gay and slept in the tent.. So these meetings really doesn't matter, all u do is talk about going home and then you get all down and upset about it! So it rally just suck except meeting some of the people! But it was pretty fun and while Ida, Hannah and I we're outside we saw three shooting stars :) it was pretty cool :)

Me, hannah and Ida goofing around at 3 am ;)

I've had a really good week and I've done a lot of stuff! :) Went to see Ironman 2, with Spencer, Tanner and Jake (Spencer did a J turn where u go reverse and then turn/slide and go forward the same direction haha it was pretty awesome :), also had a Choir concert, a bonfire in the middle of the week and stayed up to 3.40 ;) haha! I'll tell u more about that some other time haha!

And I had a really good day today as well! After school, which was awesome btw, Spencer and I went to Dicks and bought some baseball gloves and just hung out before we went to practice. Practice was dumb, Spencer and I was late so we had to tun a mile and a half for punishment! :( :( After that was sad though. Spencer, P-ray, Noel and I went to visitation for a friend of ours that past away 2 weeks ago. He was a graduate from last year and I had the priveledge to meet him a few times! R.I.P. you will be forever loved and remembered.

But the day was not over, we cheered up and was on our way to Ilia's going away party and we wen by the school. And we saw that they had a middleschool dance going on, so we totally decided to crash it!! :D haha it was awesome, Spencer, P-ray, Noel and I just ran in there and started dancing! haha it was SOOO funny! :D And then we went to Sams house where the party was :) II had an amazing time there and it was so much fun! Sam has a pawn so we (Noel, Ilia, P-ray, Spencer and I) decided to jump in it and swim! It was so awesome, kinda cold though lol but totally worth it!!! :D Then we jsut chilled by the fire, watching a movie, playing pool and just hanging out! So like I said i had an awesome day! :D

Last weekend was totally awesome and so was this week, and this weekend will also be VERY awesome! So i guess everything is awesome right now XD

Last day of track!


Had my last track meet ever yesterday at districts, Champagne anyone?! :D Awesome no more running for no reason lol. The District meet is the meet where you qualify for State and all the other schools around your state. I ran the 4*200 and the open 200 dash. I got eight in the open 200 dash, so i got a medal which was pretty awesome :)

So I have done track for about 2 months, but now I'm done with it. So that is awesome no more track!! Really don't like track, even though I was starting to like it a little bit more because I was getting better at the 200 m runs, and was starting to win stuff and it's always fun to win ;) haha! I have for the most part been running 200 m relays, not that many open 200, which sucks because if I would've run the 200 at every meet i would've been even better!!! Oh well i broke my personal best yesterday, my time was 25.19 seconds which is pretty good for my first year of track! :) My goal for the track season was to run under 25.00 seconds, I wasn't far from it so i guess it was ok. If I wouldn't have had a dumbass as a coach i probably would've made it. I also ran my 4*200 a couple of events earlier so I was still tired. Allergies sucks, my chest gets tight pretty easy..


My friend Dana also ran the open 200 yesterday in the lane next to me, and it was a real close one, we were just beside each other on the finishline, but he beat me with 0.07 seconds so yeah it was REAL close haha ;)

There was one of the boys track team that went to track, my ginger friend Jake!! :) He's a freshmen, a real big one though and a REALLY awesome guy ;) The girls had a little bit more state qualifiers, the girls who got to state was April Coppes, Brittany Clarke, Cj Fitzgerald, Mattea Otten and Sydney Vaughn :) Congratulations :)

When the meet was over we all went to the buss to go home, but there was a car that had parked behind us!!! :O So Joel was like... lets move it! Haha so 6 of us picked up the front and turned it so we could drive out haha it was totally awesome :D An awesome way to end the track season! haha!

When we got back to the school, Brandon, Caleb, Nathaniel and I went to pancheros to celebrate that track was over! haha! It was SOOO good! It wasn't champagne... but oh well ;) haha! Then Nathaniel and I stayed the night at Brandons house! :D IT was pretty awesome! We just chilled, talked and watched Zombieland! :D The next morning Nathaniel was gone because he had to work at 12. So me and Brandon hung out, we went to caseys and bought a real american breakfast.... Doughnuts!! hahaha! Then we went back to his house and chilled for a while before Brandon taught me how to ride the quad! It was awesome, it can go as fast as 85 m/h!! Which is really fucking fast! :)

Had a awesome start of the weekend! I'm going to our homeshow dance now. Remember the Co-ed dance that me and my friend Hope is doing :) Today is the day for the show!! Time for some Dirty Dancing ;) And after that I'm going to a exchangestudent thing to do some camping!

Will be a good weekend! Ttyl :)

PROOOM!! :) :) :)

Prom!!!!!! So had my first and last prom at my school, Springville prom last weekend and it was freakin awesome! the best HS dance i've been too! I had a ton of fun at the Marion Prom but I didn't know that many people. But I pretty much knew everyone at my schools prom. :)


I went with Mattea Otten from my class :) She looked very pretty in her dress and we matched awesome!! like peanutbutter and jelly haha ;) She had a black dress with a kind of turquoise detail in the waist, and it was not a super long dress, it ended just below her knee. I loved that because I didn't have to step on her dress ALL the time when we danced XD haha


The day started out with me going to get my vest and bowtie and the tuxplace and then I went home and dressed up. And then George took me to Matteas house where they all took some pictures out in her yard. Like I said she looked awesome and very pretty in her dress and her styled hair. :) I was starting to get WAY pumped for the dance now when i saw mattea in her dress :) I was way excited and as I've mentioned before... I LOVE TO DANCE! haha :)



Then Mattea and I went to the Grand march at school and met up with all the other people who were going to Prom. Grand March is a thing they do before Prom where they announce all the couples that are going to Prom, and it was fun, smiling, posing for the camera and being photographed by the parents :) It was funny to see them being all fancy and shit, wearing tux and tie. You know im used to see most of them wearing very casual clothes haha! We waited for a while before the actual March began, not as long as for the Marion one haha OMG. There was not that many couples compared to the Marion Prom so this went a lot more faster :) We were like the 15th couple walking out for the Grand March and we looked DAMN good! Haha! :) The gym was set up beautifully and they had a big eiffeltower in it and a bunch of lights and flowers :) After the Grand March we just talked with everyone for a while and took pictures with everybody, it was pretty fun! :)


Grand March :)


SEEEEXY! :D haha


Mattea and I posing and looking good haha ;)


Jordan, my bro Kyle and I :)


We were in a smaller Prom group, only six people in it but it was enough because we're all AWESOME :) lol, it was Noel and his date Melissa, Bryce and his date Sarah, a graduate from last year, and Mattea and I :) We went to a greek restaurant for dinner and it was awesome, we had flaming cheese and stuff and it was all really good, the place was called the Mt Vernon Inn.


Our Group, but without Noel and Mellisa.

And then... PROM!!!!!! :D The dance was definitely the the best thing of the night!!! The dance was from 8-12 just enough! :) The dances are usually from 8 - 11 which is a lil bit to short about an hour lol so 4 hours of constant dancing was perfect!!! Like I've said a couple of times now, I LOVE DANCING!!! Haha it's so awesome! And Mattea was awesome to dance with, we danced a lot together, all kinds of dancing! I'm kind of sad that that was my last HS dance, i will miss them cause they are totally awesome!! I had the time of my life dancing, doing all kinds of weird and crazy stuff haha! The worm, some robot stuff, bridge, and just my regular dancing style! ;) which is pretty awesome btw haha! Jk i just dance however i feel like ;) A lot of freestyling and a lot of grinding ;) I mean who doesn't like to grind?! I always do it with a bunch of people haha! Its fun, Mattea and I grindid quite a bit, we also danced like they used to in the old days haha! So to sum it up, prom was awesome!!!!


P-ray doing his thumbs up pose as usuall and for once they get along with each other haha ;)

The best friends Mattea and Sarah :)

My Bro's Spencer and Brandon!! And i'm just chilling upside down... or is it downside up?? ;)

After the dance Bryce, Sarah, Mattea and I went to Sarah's house to change in to some more comfortable clothes for the Post Prom :) Post Prom was from 12.30 to 5 am so pretty much all night long! Post Prom was at the school this year, a lot of people have thought that the previous years when they had it at school sucked! It is usually way better when they have it somewhere else, when they have it at a place with a lot of attractions. Anyway they had set up a lot of videogames, poker tables and movies, so there was stuff to do, not really that exciting but it was ok. The best part about Post Prom was that they had a Hypnotist there! It was freaking awesome!!!!! 10 people got hypnotized.... And i'm not just saying that they got put to sleep or some bullshit. This was the real fucking deal!! He made them do stuff that they didn't even remember after the whole thing! He made them dance, do kung foo, shake their asses, make them believe that there was flying monkeys that they had to catch haha!! It was awesome :D It was great to watch but I really wanted to get hypnotize, but I didn't...!! It would've been awesome! :D But oh well ;)

So Prom was awesome sad that it was my last High school dance but i guess that I might as well end it on a good note. Because I had sooo much fun, thanks everybody for that and thx mattea for being an awesome date :)

Viva Las Vegas!

It is said that, What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, except herpes that goes back with you. Well not that much crazy shit happened in Vegas since I'm not 21 and all the naughty stuff that you can do in Las Vegas require you to be 21 or over. Anyway I still had an awesome, awesome time :) It was SOOO cool to see the strip where all the famous hotels are located that you've only seen in movies!
There is so much to talk about so I'm gonna try to keep it short. We were able to go to Vegas because George had a conference with her job there and she got everything free, hotel, food, transportation, flight. So she asked if Kyle and I wanted to come with and of course we did!!! All i had to pay for was the flight. We got a totally awesome room, a freaking suit!!! haha for free, and it was on the top floor and the view was awesome!! Almost felt like the hangover ;) the room wasn't as crazy nice but it was pretty nice!

Didn't have that much time to do stuff the first day so we just walked down the strip (main street) and checked stuff out.. oh yeah we also went to hOOters, where all the girls working there were really hot, had tight clothes and big boobs haha awesome restaurant gotta say :P

The second day me and Kyle hung out at the pool to 4 o'clock before George was done with her conference. After that we went to madame taussand the wax museum :) haha it was awesome and fun to see how big they really are. We took A LOT of pictures im just gonna show a couple of them! IT was a GOOD time :)


George with Mathew Kyle flicking him off ;)
Kicking Clooney in the nuts! XD

Then we went to a magic show with Cris Angel! A guy that do some crazy stuff! Make himself disappear and appear again just like that!! And he had a bunch of other tricks, it's impossible to understand how he did it and it looked sooo real! I was amazed... until I got kicked out for taking pictures! :( they we're all bitching about it and wouldn't just give me a warning! They even kicked me out of the casino! I WAS PISSED and George was pissed so the other day she called the manager and complained. So we got 3 free tickets for the show the day after haha! So i was happy about that cause i missed almost the whole show! But saw it the day after so that was cool ;)

Saw this the second time we went haha :P

Third and last full day we decided to go to the "Red rock canyon" it's not like the Grand Canyon but it was pretty amazing! I have never seen a dessert before and such landscape before so that was awesome! :) the cliffs and mountain was sweeeet! Formed in all kinds of crazy ways! and it changed color, but most of it was... yeah red therefor the red rock canyon lol


The rest of the day we had a lot of stuff to squeeze in to our schedule, we had to do some shopping, eat, watch the water show outside the Bellagio hotel, you know the hotel they always stand outside in the movies oceans 11,12,13 ;) It was beautiful! :) Then me and Kyle were going to try out a Rolercoaster that went just in town, it had loops and all that so I was psyched! I love rolercoasters :) And then we're going to go see the Cris Angel Magic show again XD I managed to not take any pictures this time since i saw the sign haha ;) Like I said before... it was mind blowing and I'm happy i got to see the rest of the show :) Then we went to another place, called the stratosphere, it is a casino/hotel/rolercoaster haha. It was super tall so about 800 feet up in the air was a rolercoaster, it was the kind that launches you up in the air then drop you :) It was also a amazing view of the city!


And that was pretty much it, i did some gambling on the slots but they were really strict so they told me to not do it and almost kicked me out of the hotel! Oh yeah and you got offered to buy hookers like ALL THE TIME!! haha these guys were handing out cards with hookers on them and with their numbers haha! It was hilarious i got a bunch of them just for fun ;) haha! Vegas was awesome and I definitely want to go back there when I'm old enough to gamble, drink, see the adult shows haha! And only then can I say, what happens in vegas stays in vegas! ;)

Pretty fun track meet for once!

For the first time in world history... track wasn't that boring, actually kinda fun! :) haha!

We had a track meet at a school close by called Anamosa High School, there wasn't that many schools there only 6 of them so we all had a good chance to medal in some of our events! Which we did! The coach mostly had all of our runners in relays, meaning 4 people running the same thing with a batong, it's called 4*100 for example, today I ran the 4*200 Varsity with a new personal best, my split was 24.98. Split means that it is not precise because you have 4 people doing 800 together, so some people will run more that a 200 and some less. I also ran 4*100 Junior Varsity and the 1600 Distance Medley Junior Varsity. Distance medley has two 200 runners, one 400 and one 800 runner in the relay. Me posing before starting the 4*100 :)


We finished first in the Distance Medley Junior Varsity which was pretty awesome!! :) So we got a medal for that! We also got third place in the 4*100 Junior Varsity! :) So if you count it up, i've won three medals! :) We also finished 5th place in the 4*200 Varsity, so pretty good that too!

My badass ginger freshman friend Jake, can you believe that this big man is only 15 years old?!! He is a really nice guy and a hell of a athlete! :D

Leaving to Las Vegas tmrw!! I'm SOOOO FREAKING EXCITED! :) I can't wait! :D

Marion Prom!

I could've gone to 4 proms, Marion, Linn Mar, Anamosa and ofc Springville :) but I'm only going to 2 f them, Marion and Springville. I had the Marion Prom yesterday night and it was really awesome! :) I posted a post about a month ago of how my Danish friend Ida asked me to her prom, so if you want to know, just check my blog from a month back. It was pretty intense of way of asking haha!

Anyway so the day started out with go getting flowers for the Springville prom, Mattea and I went in town for a while before i went to Idas house! We went to HyVee the flowerplace then we picked up my vest and then we went to Starbucks for a coffee, White Chocolate Mocca!!!! haha sooooo good, we both had one. :)

Went home and took a shower ad got dressed, then on my way to the bitch Lindies house. haha jk ;) We had a small prom group, Ida and I, and Idas like best friend Lindsie and her boyfriend Keegan. Lindsie and Keegan was pretty awesome! and they looked great together ;)

After gathering we went to a photo studio! Lindsies dad work as a photographer so we got awesome pictures for free!! How awesome isn't that?!! It was fun :)



After that we went to the grand march, it was suppose to start at 4.30 but because Marion is a big school it took forever for all the couples to enter the red carpet and get introduced to the audience and all the people, Ida and I entered at probably like 5.15! That kinda sucked, but at least i didn't have to stand in high heels like the girls hahah suckers lol. I've walked in high heels... gotta say it's not easy haha! Oh yeah and my awesome friends Dana and Nathaniel came to look at the grand march for me :) I love you guys! <3


Me and Georgeanne rocking on! I prefered the Hang loose sign but NOOO she wanna rock haha!


Me and Ida owning the runway!!!!! :D

Ahh dinner. :) After grand march we went to a Japanese restaurant called Osaka and it was SOOOOO incredibly good! haven't had sushi in A LONG TIME! And we also ahd an awesome cook/server. You see they made the food just in front of our eyes on a like mongolian grill and we sat around it! :D it was awesome and the cook was so funny haha and incredibly good with his kitchen utensils, like spinning them in his hands and throwing them in the air. He also juggled an egg with a utensil haha it was sweet!


And then... the moment we've all been waiting for! DANCING!!! :D I don't know if you've got the message yet but I LOVE DANCING! haha it's awesome :) Love it and Ida was awesome to dance with :) I didn't know that many people so i mostly danced with her. It was pretty awesome! But what can you expect when two totally awesome Scandinavian people get together and dance ;) haha!


After that all four of us went to Lindsies house and had a Bonfire :) It was sweet! Apparently the Marion Post prom is gay so they didn't want to go... Post Prom is a thing arranged for after the Prom, the students stay the night at a place and Do whatever i guess haha! Going to the Springville one so we'll se how it will be, i bet it will be awesome :D Or hope so :)

Anyway I had an awesome day thanks Ida :)

Btw bought these awesome shoes today!! :)


Take care everyone and wish me luck for my prom next week!! :D I'm really excited it will be awesome! :) <3
