De sidste par dage har min awesome veninde Emilie været på besøg!!! Hun er også en foreign exchange student fra Danmark, men desværre er hun fra Sjælland :( Vi bor faktsik tættere på hinanden her, end i Danmark. Hun bor i Hampton omkring 30-45 min. i bil. Vi har det så sjovt sammen.
Vi har været ude at ride, været på "deer camp", spillet matador og 500 lol sjovt. OG vi har set på homecoming kjoler til min værts søster.
Elsker hende :)<3
Julen har været rigtig fed, og har fået mange gode gaver :) Det har været sådan en anderledes oplevelse, men også pisse fedt. Savner godt nok mine venner og familie, men så er det godt at jeg har fået nogle ekstra herovre.
Vi ses!

!!! IMPORTANT IFORMATION !!!
Hey guys!!! Since i’m always talking in English, I’ve decided to write in Danish from now on, since I almost never use my English. I’m sorry if some of you guys only understand English, and if you want me to translate, just send me an email. Thank you.
Hej alle! Som I nok ved, har jeg skiftet sprog til dansk, yay. Jeg elsker virkelig jul, og en Amerikansk jul bliver så spændende!! Vi har allerede været til to julefester, en med kirken og en med familien (de sagde en lille del, men hold da op, den var mega stor!)
På onsdag har vi en julefest med ungdomsgruppen i kirken, hvilket jeg glæder mig rigtig meget til. Vi har det altid sjov i ungdomsgruppen. Jeg tror vi skal spille et spil der hedder ‘dirty santa’, som er lidt ligesom den dansk version; pakkeleg. Anyway, jeg har fået købt ALLE mine julegaver, og hold da helt op hvor det føles godt. Ikke mere stres eller noget, og selvfølgelig, de danske gaver skulle have været sendt afsted FØR den 9. december.
Det er virkelig hvad man kan kalde en anderleds oplevelse, at opleve en amerikansk jul. Julen er noget jeg har set rigtig meget frem til, da det er min yndlings tradition. Vi skal vidst have mangle juleaftner i år, siden det er en stor familie jeg har.
Som sagt bor jeg i Camden, Arkansas hvor jeg har boet siden den 30. july 2011. Jeg har godt nok skiftet familie, men bor stadig på den samme grund med den samme familie. Jeg elsker min værtsfamile, der er alle rigtig søde. Vi har juleferie i næste uge, yay!!!! Glæder mig sådan.
See ya' guys.

Sorry guys!!!!!!!
I'm soooooo sorry guys, I totally forgot about the blog.. I've been so busy lately, and there's been so many changes and I haven't got the time to do my blog.
First I started at a christian high school called CCA (Camden Christian Academy), men after a week I switched to Harmony Grove (public school). I liked CCA, but I like HHG (Harmony Grove High school) a lot more. I've now been at the school for 9 weeks, and all in all, I've been going to school for about 10 weeks. I've also been in America for 100 days today! :O Wow, it's going way too fast, and I've already spent over 1/3 of my year here!
My schedule over here in school is; First Period: P.E, Second Period: Physics, Third Period: Pre-AP Algebra 2, Fourth Period: English 2, Fifth Period: Study Skills, Sixth Period: American History, Seventh Period: Chemistry.
I have a lot of wonderful friends, and they're all super awesome. Of course it's a lot different than the Danish schools, but it's also really cool :)
It's a really good experience, and I'm enjoying it! Of course I miss my family and friend, especially Ida (my best friend).
During the summer, I've spend a lot of time at the lake (lake Degray), and we have been Scuba Diving (my favorite!!!! YAY!), tubing, swimming, etc.
It's been the hottest summer ever!!! And it's still super hot, about 78-100 Fahrenheit (25-38 C), which is really hot since it's the end of october.
I love my host family! They're great and I'm having such a good time. I love being here :)
Looove Camilla.

Long time since.. SORRY! :)
Hi guys :) I'm so sorry that it has been such a long time since my last update here in America, but I've just been so busy all day, that I totally forgot all about my blog.
We've been doing a lot of activities at camp, plus we went to Newport (RI), and I just spend the whole day on the beach, loooooove <3 The beach was so nice, and I saw the lifeguards just like in Baywatch, lol. And yes, I use 'lol' a lot, lol :) We had a goodbye-party, and me and Emily was crying like babies, but anyway, it was so hard to leave all the amazing people..
Then I finally landed in Little Rock airport (Arkansas), and my lovely host family was waiting for me and my host sis. Julia :) It's the fifth day with my host family, and I love every second of it, they are all so amazing people. I've meet many members of the family, and we've been eating out a lot :) We do stuff with the family all the time, and I love it!
It's been hot on camp, but I just found out that camp was nothing, here is like 40 C + every day!!! Today we had 44 C!!!!!!! That's really hot! :o
We've been going to church, and we do that 2 times sunday and 1 time wednesday. I really like church here in America, it's so different. Anyway, I decided to go to CCA (Camden Christian Academy) which is a christian high school :) I'm gonna be in 11th grade (junior), yay!!! :)
We've been swimming, riding 4-wheelers, shopping, shooting and a lot more, it's so much fun!! Wish everybody gets the same chance as me. Taking a High School Year Abroad was one of the best decisions I've ever made :) Love it!
And btw.. I'm gonna go and see Captain America tomorrow :) And i'm gonna sleep at Emilys place on wednesday, and i'm SO excited!!! Miss her all the time <3
See you later guys :)

USA! :)
Hey guys! I'm so sorry that I haven't been writing, but i've just been so busy all day long :)
So I loooove America, it's so big and beautiful! BUT too hot! I wish there was snow or just rain here, but no, about 90-100 F. each day, and sometimes more! And that's just Rhode Island and Massachuetts.
I'm living at Bryant University in Rhode Island right now, but next saturday i'm going to my host family in Arkansas, and they have like over 100 F. each day, so i'm gonna die.
I love Bryant camp! I love the people, the university, everything about it, even school :)
Yeah, i'm going to school everyday (from monday to sunday), so i'm also in school on saturdays and sundays, but it's cool :) On monday-friday we have school from 10.00-15.30, and saturday-sunday it's 13.00-17.00 so it's not that bad. We have a lot of fun activities each day, and the university has a swimmingpool, so i'm swimming a lot :)
I can't remeber if it was tuesday or wednesday, but I was in Providence Mall in Rhode Island. It's the biggest mall in Rhode Island and it's pretty cool :) We went to Boston, Massachuetts friday, and spend the whole day there, so that was the only school without school :)
Boston is huge!!! But I love it, and I went shopping in a mall in Cambridge :) We also saw Harvard University.

I'm here!!
Yeseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees, i'm finally in the states! Or I came sunday evening at 10 or something like that. This have been my first day at camp, and it was really good :) We have been i "school", or we have been learning about American History, Life In America etc., and we had a really hard test, lol. But it's so good here at Bryant University (Rhode Island), and really hot, like 30 C+. I was raining a little bit today (18/7-11), but it was still like 30 C, really weird :) Rhode Island is 6 hours behind Denmark, and Arkansas is 7 hours.
We had breakfast at 8:30 and a meeting at 10:00. After breakfast we went to the station and saw some american football (There's a football camp and a baseball camp here too). It was really cool, and funny :) Then we had meeting and we had classes. I'm in Madison West, which is the name of the "school" you're going to on the camp. We're a group on 15 people. We had the classes and the test. We had lunch at 12:00. The food is so different from the danish food, and i'm not saying that it's a bad thing, but it's different. Then we had classes again, and at 3:30 we were finished. Then there's activities, but you don't have to do it, if you don't want to.
There was karaoke/ben and jerry tonight, and it was a lot of fun, lol :) But tomorrow i'm gonna do football (american) and swimming, and i'm so excited!
I've met my hostsister from Germany! She's SO sweeet!!!! Her name is Julia, and we skyped with our hostfamily today, for like 30-45 min., and it was really good :) I've talked a lot with my hostfamily! I called them yesterday, to tell them that I was here, and that I was okay. Today Robby called me, and it was really cool to talk to him. They are SO nice and sweet!!!!
The people on the camp are very nice and sweet, and i'm having a lot of fun. And i've got a sweet roommate too :)
I'm gonna write back later, see you guys!

One day!!
This is my first post on blogger.com :) Now there's only one day or 7 hours until i'm leaving, so i'm super excited! Can't wait! I'll first fly from Aalborg 0800 to Copenhangen, and then from Copenhangen 1225 to New York. And after that, i'll go to Boston at a camp called Bryant camp.
Bryant camp is a preparing camp for all exchange students, where you learn about USA, meet new people, do sport, go to beach and things like that. I'll fist go to Bryant camp for two weeks, and then the 30th July, i'll go to Arkansas, to my hostfamily. Julia, my hostsister, will also join Bryant camp, so i'll get a chance to meet her tomorrow! I'm SOOOOO excited!
Btw.. I've talked a lot with my hostfamily, they are SO sweet and nice, so I really can't wait to meet them! I'm gonna have a german sister, Julia. She's SO sweet, and I can't wait to meet her either! I'm gonna live in a city called Camden, in the state Arkansas. Arkansas is surrounded by Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee, Missouri, Kansas and Oklahoma. - So Arkansas is a south state. Camden is in the south part of Arkansas and an hour from Texas.
Today was a very strange day, I had to face that this was the last day in Denmak for a whole year, and I said goodbye to my best friend Ida, which was SO hard!
I think i'll go to sleep now, because I have to get up early.. But i'll write you guys back on the camp :) See you!
