Can't really think of a title....

Sorry that I haven't written in a while, but I seem to be getting more and more busy!
School is going okay. I am not doing to horribly in any of my classes, but then again, they don't really even check your homework and I haven't had any tests, so I wouldn't really know.
I did have one test in Math that I am very proud to say I got a 1 on!!!!! WOOO!!!! All of my classmates where embarrassed that the American did better than them. I mean, are we all really thought of as that dumb? But then they had to justify by saying that I AM 17 and have already learned this. blah blah blah blah!!! I just can't wait!! I friend of mine, Fabian, made a bet with me that if I do better than him in German, he will give me 5 Euros, but if he does better than me in English, I have to give him 5 Euros. I hope I win!!!! All I have to say is that is will be very embarrassing for the loser!
Anyway, school is sort of fun, but I do miss a couple of things. I miss being able to drive to school in the rain and cold as opposed to riding my bike. However, I am liking the fact that I will be kept in shape by my daily rides to and from school, which I have calculated to be around 3 miles one way. So I bike an average of 6 miles everyday. Not bad! I also miss the whole set up of American school. It is cool getting to know my classmates by being in the same class the entire day, but I miss the variety and movement that comes with American high school. What I don't miss is substitute teachers. Here, if a teacher is sick or just doesn't show up, you don't have class. That means some days you might have 6 classes and others, like today, only 3. Well 3 hours that is. I only had two different classes. It is really cool! If the teacher that isn't there's class is at the end of the day, then you just get to go home early!!
Here is my final schedule, just in case I didn't post it earlier. I have been placed in the class U2c, which is the 10th grade. If a block is blank it means that is was French or Latin and I don't have to take it, so I have it free:

Other than that, not much new has happened.
I have gotten a little closer to my classmates. I was invited to go to the club with some of them last Friday and did it!! It was a lot of fun! Although afterwards, I couldn't here anything! The music was really really loud! That Sunday, I went to Hamburg with my host parents. It was a lot of fun! We went to the Dungeon, which is basically a Haunted House. It wasn't too scary, but certainly entertaining. There was a ride at the very end. One of those things that lifts you up and then just drops. It was hilarious!!!! After that, we went to go eat some sushi because my host parents have never had it before. I feel bad because, honestly, it wasn't that good. I had better in the food court in the Battlefield Mall!!! So hopefully we will have a chance to try some good sushi!
Finally, I have joined a local tennis club, the Itzehoer Tennis Verein. I have lessons once a week. It is a lot of fun, but very different because I am playing on clay courts instead of hard courts. I still haven't gotten used to them. I do have a tournament tomorrow against the other kids my age in the club. I hope I do good!
Bis später!
