Super Pumped!

Hey everybody! So I´ve got some more stuff to say so listen up. First off, I think it should be said that I will be coming home in less than 15 days, and that I am super pumped to.... well, I think a small list is in order for the things that I am super pumped to do (note* when one is super pumped to do somthing, the thing he or she is super pumped to do needs to be followed by at least fifteen explanation marks):

1)See my beloved family and friends for the first time in over nine months!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
2)Play my own drums....with my band!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
3)Eat at least three consecutive bowls of Cinnimon Life Cereal every day for at least a week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
4)Flush my toilet paper!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
5)Take an hour long shower with water that will stay at a constant temperature!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
6)Not be forced to listen to Regetón!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well I think that´s about everything I´m super pumped for when I get home. There are plenty of other things I´m pumped for, but I think those are all of the super ones.

Anyway, I´ve been up to some other stuff lately. First off, my week long visit to Quito was quite a good time. I´m not going to go into much detail but I will say that my host family was great, I climbed up higher than I´ve ever been on a mountain (and again was quite scared of falling down and dying), and I was situated between a car full of singing, laughing, screaming Germans (and yes they were singing, laughing, and screaming in German and I understood nothing).

Also I went to the Galapagos Islands. I must say, that that was worth every penny. I went for four days and five nights and was able to see and do quite a bit. I actually think another list with some highlights is in order here.

1) I saw all types of animals there whih include: Tortises, iguanas, blue-footed boobies, tons of fish, wierd birds, sea lions (which I totally swam with), and sharks.

2) I went snorkeling for the first time in my life and I loved every minute of it. That was by far my favorite part.

3) I got into a giant empty tortise shell and danced around for a while.

4) I visited a bunch of islands and got to eat lunch on a boat.....twice!

5) I suprised myself with how much I´ve improved my spanish after talking about quite a few dificult topics with the other exchange students.

6) I learned some nice German phrases that will be sure to make Lennart Knuttson laugh when he comes back this summer.

Well I think that that´s about it. I´m going to have about 4 going away parties for me in the next two weeks, so the time should go pretty darn fast. But OK, that´s all, so I´ll see you soon, and I´ll be sure to post a going away blog before I come home! See ya soon!
