And they said I would be dead by now..

so I wrote this post one time and then the internet decided it didn't like me and just turened off so I am going to try agian!
Its crazy to believe that I have been here for almost 5 months its 5 months on the 10th of Febuary if you want to know. I am writing a little sooner because thats the excat same day I leave for two weeks for camp yay! midstay camp excatly on my mid stay. The time goes by so fast here. Its like being stuck in a uncontrolable time warp.
Today I went to the post office ...ALONE. Get ready for this. So first it takes me about ten minutes to buy a stamp because theres about 20 different options and I am standing there thinking I just want a stamp! so 10 mintues later I have the stamp in my hand and enter the post office. (oh AFS you owe me 55 cents for the STAMP so I can sent you a train ticket so you can send me money back..very practical) ANYWAY  so I enter the post office very proud because A i found it and B i bought the stamp. Now I am trying to figure out how German post offices work. For those of you that have never been to germany I'll fill you in on some observations I have had in the last couple of months! If your a german and you work for the goverment or the DB then your never going to be nice; if your a german and you see someone acting strange or oddly from another country then your going to judge them and lastly theings are always to simple in Germany. NOW with the reast of the story... so I come in to the post office cause its cold outside all happy because I bought a stamp and sit down to put my stamp on my envolope and then give it to the nice man to mail it. NOT THAT SIMPLE! First there is no sticky stuff on the back of the stamp so I am sitting there like an idiot trying to fgure out how on earth you get the back off the stamp so that it will stick to the envolope. 7 minutes later I give up and ask for help except the nice man is not so nice and informs me that I need a glue stick. Where am I going to get a glue stick? So I ask do you have a glue stick? so he goes and finds one. sticks the stamp on there and without another word walks away I thought he was going to charge me for the glue! Next problem NOW I have a leter in an envolope with a stamp but no ones explained how you send it. Good thing I had my contacts in today because outside are these pretty yellow bins and I stuck it in there. SO AFS i hope your reading thins because for all I know my ticket could be on its way to Asia. Oh and I want a glue stick when I come home! plus flip flops the Brizilans got flip flops!
Long story short I am always going to find ways to look extremly stupid. Thats just part of life. Its all about learning. I vagely remember writing my parents a really go email quoting miley cyrus. The jist of it was that theres always going to be another mountin and I am always going to want to make it move whats import is the lessons you learn on the way!
