Germany.

Germany. Lovely Germany. You know what today reminds me of? Germany. That's right. Do you want to know why? No? Well, I'm going to tell you anyway.

This morning at church, I was sitting in the Student lobby having a conversation with Ms. Jessica. I think we were talking about Tiny Towers, that game app for iPads and iPhones and whatnot. It was funny, because she has it on her iPad, and my mom used to have it on her iPad, and I would play it all the time! Getting off track here.

So Ms. Jessica and I were talking, and this girl walks up. She looks like she's about sixteen or seventeen. We introduce ourselves, and I find out she's an exchange student from Germany. All the while I'm thinking: Sweet! I've never met anyone from Germany, let alone visited there. She's a Junior in highschool, and has been in the United States since August. We went on an errand for Ms. Jessica, then we hung out until the Student service started. Afterwords, she said that services here were way different in Germany. We talked about it some, then bought some coffee and went into 'big church' (the main service... I think everyone calls it big church, though. I know I do). I introduced her to my mother and aunt and cousin. They asked a few questions, and then we went to sit down. We sat at the very top of stadium seats and talked some more about the differences between Germany and America. It was very interesting. After big church, we parted ways.

She was a very sweet, beautiful young lady. Very courteous. She spoke English very well. I really enjoyed spending time with her and I hope to see her again before she leaves for Germany in June.

Auf Wiedersehen, liebe Leser! (Gotta love Google Translate.)
