62th Day-26/4/2011
Today is Tuesday. I woke up at 6.30am and I was not feeling well. Although I was not feeling well, but I still went to school as usual.
In the school, I felt left out because all my friends were so excited to talk among themselves and told each other how were their holiday.When I asked them "how was your holiday?", they only answered "good, and you?". Two period of physics class I sat there doing nothing, and the teacher didnt even give me the note.
The whole day in school was bad. I could not understand what my friends or teachers said and I was not feeling well. I felt like I am wasting my time, everyone was doing their homework , listening to the teacher and I could not do anything but just seat there.My classmates also discuss about their 2 weeks trip to Ireland, and I could not join in because I didnt go.
Already 2 months, I still facing the same problem, LANGUAGE!! I start to suspect myself, am I able to break the barrier? Have I make the right choice to come here for one year? Am I wasting money and time?

61th Day-25/4/2011
Today is Monday. I slept in a tent for the very first time. After breakfirst, Silvia and I walked around to find some place for the summer camp. After that, we kept all the things and went home. 4 hours in the car were torturing because the car was hot and I am hungry, boring and thirsty.
When I reached home, I went to shower. Lucia (another host sister) and her husband came and we drank coffee together. I also packed my bag because Monday was the last day for the school holiday.

59th Day- 23/4/2011
Today is Saturday also the day for Easter. When I woke up, I saw Easter bunny and some chocolate on the table. During the afternoon, Monika baked cake and bread and I helped her.
At first, I thought we will have something special for the dinner because of EASTER but at last we only ate "fried rice" for dinner. Fried rice which without any meat and cooked by Silvia, I dont like the taste :( .
At night, we went to the church. This was my first time to stay in a church more than 5 minutes. I obsevered the whole process the peoples prayed, listened to the priest and sang. This was new for me but also a bit boring because I did not understand anything at all. After that, we went to another hall. Many people gathered there and we ate eggs and drank.
Erm, Easter is not as special as I thought it will be. This was my first time celebrate Easter and I dont think it was not a special one..:( I didnt paint any egg or hide any egg :(

Around 6pm, we went to a Malaysian's house ( a Indian woman that I met in the train when I go to Zurich, her name is Karen). Her husband (come from Sri Lanka) came and fetched us.

Actually from the last phone call, Karen told me that she will cooked Malaysia's food for us :D and she even know how to cook Ban Mian :D. But, friday also Karen's husband, Siva's relative birthday!! So, we went to the relatives house.
