Thursday's Waffle... (Whattt? It's Thursday again?!)

10 Things I Lovee about the Big NH.


1. The abundance of trees. You don't miss 'em 'til they're gone gone gone. And boy, do I miss my friends the trees. If you have any questions about how much I love trees, feel free to ask Alison.

2. How when you look anwhere in any direction, you see mountains. The entire landscape is surrounded by mountains. Here there are just some hills, even though they call them mountains.

3. The license plates that say "Live Free or Die". I love the independence of it.

4. The fresh crisp air. Nothing like a place without too many cities.

5. It's next to Vermont, which is just plain awesome.

6. There is LOTS OF SNOW in the winter. For doing fun snow things with. And winter carnival.

7. The proximity of the wilderness. I never realized how much I took that for granted. It's not a common thing for the rest of the world I suppose.

8. Mexican food. Yes, I know New Hampshire is no where near Mexico, but it is closer to Mexico than Europe, and for some reason, has good mexican food. And Germany has NO mexican food.

9. The cheerfully niceness of people there. I really think that's just a New Hampshire thing, I haven't been to a place where it's quite the same. (Though people here are super nice too, just not the same I suppose.)

10. The lakes. There are way more lakes in New Hampshire than here. I guess that many lakes isn't normal? It's nice anyways.

loveeeee,
em!

Thursday's Waffle. With a Side of Musik.

10 Songs I'm Lovin' Right Now


1. Such Great Heights by The Postal Service. (This might be my favorite right now.)

2. Daylight by Matt & Kim. I've just fallen in love with this song, and I'm not quite sure why. But no matter how, I have.

3. Sunshine by Matt Costa. Actually just anything by Matt Costa. I've been loving this song for a while, but just started listening to more. This one is still my favorite of his though.

4. Autobahn by Ohrbooten. This is basically German reggae. I love it!

5. Someday by The Strokes. This song is a bit old, but who cares?

6. Blessed by Brett Dennen. I take it back about the first song, I think this song is my favorite. It just makes me feel happy. 

7. It Don't Matter by Donavon Frankenreiter. Just another nice cheery song.

8. The Hat by Ingrid Michaelson. (And I don't like it just because of the title! ...but that may be part of it.)

9. Can You Feel the Love Tonight from The Lion King. I want to watch this movie so badly right now!! Ahhh. Oh well, I'll try to survive without it. Plus we've been singing this song in music class. 

10. Moose for a Day by Lena Gabriella. 'Cause we all know how much I love moose, and it just makes me smile, its funny. 

loveeeee,
em!

P.S. Don't send your parents emails in German (unless they speak German), because they might translate it wrong and have some very strange questions fro you.

Thursday's Waffle... noch einmal?

10 Goals I Have:


1. Learn German. It's a pretty high priority right now. But coming along somewhat nicely.

2. Learn to play the Piano. Oh, how much I wish I could play the piano! Trying to teach myself is not working quite so well.

3. Learn to play the Guitar. Same as with the piano... my hands aren't used to so much...

4. Learn Spanish (fluently). Maybe this will happen in college.

5. Hike the Appalachian Trail. I'm going to hike it after I graduate high school and before I go to college. It will be awesome. Oh, and I walked 12ish miles home from school today, just for fun. (:

6. Be staff at camp. Everyone who knows me knows that camp=life.

7. Take a photography class sometime, I really think it would be quite interesting.

8. Learn some French, so I actually know what's going on during French class. 

9. Find something better to do with my free time than facebook...

10. Read a book in German!
