Today I woke up at 11 on my own, which was awesome. It was the first time that I got to sleep in since I arrived. When I woke up, Beate and Uwe were gone visiting Beate's mother, and Arne was about to leave for soccer practice. After making myself a delicious gouda, salami, and wurst sandwich, I got ready for the day, and then worked on online classes. At around 3, the Tebbenjohanns came and picked me up to go to an afternoon tea party. The tea party was for the people in the dance class that I will be taking with Laurenz Tebbenjohanns every Friday. The people that were at the party were the definition of preppy. From popped collared Polos to Sperrys, everything about them was preppy and upper class. The event was rather uneventful, although when the girls found out that I was from America, they almost flipped their bicycle. They kept on asking me questions and then whispering to each other while still looking at me. It was most peculiar. After 3 hours of being at this party, we left, and the Tebbenjohanns took me back home. Once home, I went downstairs to watch a soccer match with Uwe and Arne. The match was Hoffenheim (the team that I am going to see live in the end of August) against Munich, Arne and Uwe's favorite team. After watching 45 minutes of that, we got ready and went to a friends house for a bar-b-que. In Germany, if you ever eat grilled food for dinner, you are having a "bar-b-que." Its a very loose term to say the least. After getting a good serving of meat, bread, and salad, we talked for a long time about random things. It was especially fun because all of the adults were slightly tipsy, thus making it all the more interesting. After a few hours, I went back home due to me being mude, or tired. I then had a nice skype conversation with my parents, then went to bed.
