I found me.

Living life to learn how to live it. Learn.. Live.. Everyday.
When you're getting tired of something, let go.. and come back - just to find out that you love it even more than before. Me, being away from my family.. made me stronger and wiser. Grateful for the people who gave me this opportunity - I promise to make you proud.

Mom, dad, sis, brother.. best friend. No words to describe how lucky I feel to have you in my life.

My hostfamily.. Thanks for welcoming me with open arms, for your support - you might not know it, but you teach me something everyday.

I am a quiet girl. Not because I'm shy.. but because I wanna learn.. to be better.

.. Now let me cry.. out of happiness, because life is beautiful.

Colts Colts Colts!

And why is my blogtitle Colts? Because, baby.. Today I finally understood how american football works, and I'm so proud of myself. Haha! Halloween is coming up, and I still haven't found a costume yet. I guess I should keep praying. So what have I been doing this weekend.. Friday I talked to my family in Denmark, and it's so weird how I miss those things I used to hate. Especially my dad talking in Danish. HAHA.. makes my day. I hung out with Lexy, Lissa, Greysie and Kitty after school, and then Sethy Bear. We then went to our house (Me, Lexy and Lina) and watched Remember the titans. My favorite movie - which we didn't finish! :( Went to sleep at 3 am and woke up at 7 am to see a volleyball tournament. Hamilton got 2nd place. Only went there because of my beautiful sister Autie. She's an 6th grader and was offered to play for the 7th graders. So proud of her :)
Later that day (saturday) we went to uncle Bobby and Deb's house to celebrate Grandma Vera's birthday. It was really nice. My first time ever to go on a hayride :D Being with the family was just awesome. Too lazy to exlain it, but if ur lucky - u can read it in my diary. But ur not, so that means.. only Karina :D Today we went to B Dubs (took me about 5 minutes to understand why it's called B dubs, way to go jenny >.<) and watched the Colts-Kansas city game. Pretty much my whole weekend. I forgot my camera and all my stuff in my locker at school, so I guess no pictures this time.

Deuces.
(til danskerne der laeser dette - vejret var solrigt... 30 grader mere praecist. Haaber i er misundelige. haha)

..I'm alive

Hey Karina, just read your blog. You almost made me cry.. I love you so much, and I know I haven't had time to be there for you, it's a bad reason, but I know you understand. I've learned so much while being here, and I wish you were here to see all the things I see.
When you're feeling down, look at the world - and you will see that the world is beautiful, and that's enough for you to continue fighting. The beauty of life can't be bought by money, and that's what all of us have been giving. It's hard to explain, you just have to realize it. I've heard two sayings - both makes sense - but completely opposite of each other. "Live life as if you'll die today" and "Don't rush through life, notice the small things" or something like that. Are we supposed to do as much as we can in life, or stop for a second and take a look at what we have and appreciate it? I don't know. I like to just take one step at a time and enjoy my life. Right now, is what matters the most.
