Is it really july? Has a new year of my life really started? Do I really leave Vienna in less than a week?
If you can't tell I'm feeling a little reluctant right now. I don't want time to keep moving. In just a year I won't be a teenager anymore, but I don't know anything else about what my life will be like. The reason I say that is because if you had told me next year that my life would be where it is right now I would have never believed you. Not because I'm unhappy or I think I would have not liked what the future held just that its soo different and it doesn't look like its solidifying anytime soon. I should tell you about my amazing trip to Budapest and how great it was to see the chapmans. I should tell you about what we're doing in class right now and how we're spending our last week in Vienna. I should tell you about the progression of my german which I guess has been a lot. I should tell you about our 2 week trip coming up in the alps. I should tell you about the projects I just finished. I should tell you about how supremely happy I am and how much I wish I never had to leave Vienna. I should tell you about how I'm a little sad that my mom left MD because now no one is at "home" I should tell you how Im feeling a little homeless. I should tell you how I am feeling so unmotivated right now. I should tell you how much I want life to start(just with a little warning of what it is) I should tell you about how I wish I could get a glimpse of where Ill be next year.
But I've just got too much on my mind

The one with the better place
Elder Gill: Where are you going to be this weekend
Elder Tilgner: In a better place!
yeah he really said that lol
SO Thursday night megan and I left from Wien Westbahnhof our train was scheduled to leave at 9 but we left at ten....after serveral hours of trying to sleep in a chair but when we got to Praha...prague? 3 people got off and then we could lay out because as the berliner next to us said "lets spread out and pretend were asleep so people wont come in" which actually worked because not as many people continue on to Dresden after Prague. So a few hours later...still in the Czeck....spell check?....we heard this loud noise. What we heard was the wires above the train snapping and then hitting something loose on the track. Five hours later they made us go to the other side of the tracks to get on another train. We finally got to Dresden and luckily a train to Leipzig which was the goal, so we got to Leipzig at 1 pm instead of 7 am. First thing we did was buy our tickets and honestly this experience already made us like Leipzig better than Vienna because the ticket people were so much nicer to us and worked had to get us the cheapest tickests possible. The people at Sudbahnhof we recognise because we hate them so much...they're mean and make us feel dumb. Ok but tickets home out of the way we decided to get some good old Burger King because thats why you go to germany...Megan did spice it up by getting a chili cheese burger and a chicken nugget burger both seemed rather interesting. Then we went around the Bahnhof since it is 3 stories and has over 140 resturants and stores....yeah its huge total conundrum as to why. After we wandered for a bit we went outside in order to find this supposedly really good ice cream-but we only knew the street name and there is like 5 eis places on every street so we picked the one with the crowd and let me tell you it was amazing best eis we've had yet. Um so then we walked around finding like the major churches and the old and new rathaus...searched for a suvineer shop-took forever this place is sooo untouristy. Ok well a ton more amazing stuff happened but I just don't feel like writing about it right now
My Birthday was pretty chill we helped my host mom move and then just hung out so really different but fun. this weekend were just hanging around but next weekend we are going to Budapest!! soooooexcited
More later-Anne
