K.
So sorry I'm getting worse and worse on the updating junk here. Haha.
Erm, so some crap's been going on with AFS Hungary and me (I can't freaking wait to get out of their system), and basically I had to go up to Budapest yesterday to talk to the head person there about my "behavior problems." Um, what?
She made me sign a paper agreeing to make my behavior better (what the flip, this whole thing got blown way out of proportion), and that if I don't shape up, I might get sent home early. At least she admitted that since I have less than two months left in my program, it's unlikely that I'll get sent home early. I'd better freaking NOT, because I haven't even DONE anything worthy of making me be sent home early! I hate AFS Hungary.
Anyway, Mom, Dad, Clifford, I'll explain this to you in an email, just because you're the only ones that really need to know. And I'm sure you'll think what AFS Hungary has done is outrageous. But don't call them up and yell at them while I'm here, because that would make things worse. Call them up and yell at them once I'm back in the states. They can't do anything to me, then.
Sooo that was yesterday. This afternoon, after lunch, I'm going to Pécs to go to the big mall there. I'm going to look for new sunglasses. My other ones (that I bought in London.. Dang) broke yesterday in my bag. I don't know how it happened, because I didn't crunch them or anything. So yeah, hopefully I can find some.
Then tomorrow, I'm heading up to Siofók (town at Balaton, the big lake here in Hungary) for some camping-ish stuff with some other exchange students. I'm coming home one day early (Tuesday, as opposed to Wednesday), because I need to study for the language exam.
On Wednesday, we're having our last Hungarian lesson before the exam. Eek. But we're getting money back from AFS, so at least that's good.
Then next Sunday (a week from tomorrow), we head down to Szeged (city in the extreme south of Hungary) for the language exam. I'll be staying there Sunday and Monday night (the test is on Monday), and coming home Tuesday, I believe.
And some point next week, I believe I will be doing a presentation on the US/California. But I don't know exactly when, because the teacher didn't tell me the last time I saw her, and I wasn't in class yesterday because I had to go to Budapest.
So yup, that's pretty much what's going on in my life right now.
Oh, and our last orientation is going to be June 9th-11th, in Dunaharászti, the place we had our second orientation way back in October. Wooaaahhh, long time ago. The location's nice... I just hope they feed us more. And it's interesting, because it's a former Communist camp, with baracks and stuff like that. [Hahaha, that reminds me of before I came, and my brother told me to look out for Communist stuff. I asked how I'd recognize it, and he said it's anything that goes "clang." :D] And another good thing is that everyone will be there (maybe even the people who came in January, but at least everyone from our group). Hooray! That hasn't happened since the first, arrival orientation!
Well, that's it for now. :)
