This last weekend was really nice, well Sunday anyway. :) I went with my good friends Paul and Michaela to a spa here for Michaela's birthday. It was a blast! This place is huge. The sign says it's the biggest spa in the world. It has 3 major areas and two of the area's are spa areas. One area is a family spa area and everyone wears bathing suits and it's really loud there. The other area is for adults only and you're actually not allowed to wear a bathing suit in this area. That's the area we were mostly. At first I was a little nervous and uncomfortable about being naked but it went away after a while. It was actually quite exhilarating and it was nice. There was a big pool in this area and a swim up bar. You could also swim from the inside pool to an outside pool. They have like 30 different sauna's with all different types of temperatures and smells. They also have different kinds of mineral baths for healing and aging. There were three different restaurants really anything you could ask for. Oh and the coolest part they have these rooms that are just for sleeping. They have waterbeds in them and they play really relaxing music. How cool is that? The third section is a water park. It has all different types of water slides. SO MUCH FUN! You're not allowed to take pictures in the spa due to everyone being naked but I managed to sneak one anyway. It's not very good but here it is.
Paul knew that he would have his own section in my blog about how he is the most awesome person in the world. :) So we were going down one of the slides on a tube. Michaela and I were on a tube together and he was behind us on his own tube. As we were going down the slide I looked back to see that Paul had fallen off his tube. It was the funniest thing I have ever seen in my life. The part that makes him the coolest person in the world is against all odds he managed to get BACK ON HIS TUBE! I can say I would not have been able to do that. That was definitely the highlight of the day. I seriously laughed forever after that. I sometimes see the mental picture in my head and just laugh. SO FUNNY!
I am now working my last week here in my current house. It's going to be so nice to finish with this family and go to my new family. I will miss the children so much but I will not miss the crap I have to put up with everyday. Oh and I signed up for German classes finally I start on the 7th of May. I'm very excited about that. :) Yay for having time to do things other than clean!!!

Shit happens!
So things here have been even more difficult and I have decided to leave this family and move to a new family and remove myself from the negative things that happen in this house. I have found myself a new family and I have met with them and they are so wonderful. They are so kind and understanding and the children are so adorable. The children are younger and I really think that is also in my best interest. I love younger children and love working with them. I gave my two weeks notice yesterday and it was very difficult and didn't go very well. The next two weeks are going to be very awkward and hard but will be worth it in the end. I have learned from this situation that I have to do whats best for me and not worry about what others are going to say or think. I know that the decisions I am making in my life are for the best.
On a more upbeat note I have been making some great new friends. I went to a English speaking meet up and met some really nice people who I have been hanging out with lately. They are very fun and so nice. I am very happy that when I start working for the new family I am going to have more time to do things like that. Last Wednesday a group of friends and myself went to karaoke and it was such a blast. Germans really know how to have fun when it comes to karaoke. I love it here. :) Here are some pictures from karaoke on Wednesday...
I got to skype with Davey, Kellie, Emma, and Elana last night and it made me very happy. It was definitely the best part of my day! I got to see Elana walk and Emma sang me her ABC's it was awesome. I really miss them and many others. I miss my mama and my Sarbear. I love you all and I miss you all terribly. Although I have been having some trouble with my host family I do love it in Munich and I'm so happy I decided to come here.
