Knocked out!

Hey together,
finally I write the next post!
Yeah I was knocked out on Tuesday. I got no air and all this stuff. It was in our practice and one guy run to me and wanted to tackle me and hit his helmet in my stomach. I think it was my "sternum" (or whatever it's called). After a hit like this, it isn't easier to speal english ;-) I just thought in the first seconds! "NEVER!!!" But I survived it! The rest of the practice I've done some sprints and strength training, but no more tackles - it was really enough. Then the practice yesterday was really bad. I don't know - I just played bad! I think the tackle in my stomach was still in my mind... But today it was better and tomorrow the first game! When everybody sleep in Germany, we'll play against Sublette. Our coacher call it "D-Day" (D-day was the day, than the Americans won over Russia with a bomb - I think so). On Tuesday after practice we went to the first volleyballgame with our schoolgirls! It was a pretty cool game and they won in the 5th set with 15:4. You can feel the spirit, but everybody said, we have to wake up :D The guys like to do the "Hitlergruss", if I'm there. Stupid - really. They look at me and want to see that I saw it. They don't know what it means. But it becomes better - they will learn it - anytime...
Some traffic signs are pretty stupid - at a junction are 4 "STOP-Signs"; everybody has to stopp. I can't understand the sense :D But the guys in the restaurants are all very kind! They tell you their first name and it's more fimilial - I would say.
On Tuesday I got back my government test and because we could get some extra-points (and I got it, but made some mistakes) I got 100 points (That's an "A" and this is the best grade!). In this class we talked about the war in Iraq and I was shocked: More than the half said it's was the right decision with the war and they have to stay there. Then we talked about a guy, who beat a very young child. He got 8 years prison for that. The most said, that you should do a minimum of 10 years for prison - also for small crimes. It's a pretty different thinking here, but okey - I have to accept it and I'm sure it will be better.On the same day I wrote a vocabulary test in Human Anatomy and also a little quiz - but both was pretty easy and I've done no mistakes=) Tomorrow we will write the test about the first chapter (not today because we've done some yearbook pictures) and a vocabulary test in English about our book "Frankenstein". This test will be difficult... But then we have a long weekend, because Monday is no school and we drive to Iowa to the family of Kim and it will be great! But first 11 hours in a train :D So you can expect the next post maybe on monday night or on Tuesday. I'm glad, when the week is over, but I think the time here is faster than the time in Germany. It's confusing.
In the last days we had over 90 degree (ca. 30 celcius) but in the school it is so cold! You have to wear long pants and sometimes a jacket :D That's weird! You go outside and are just sweating, and then you go inside and are just being cold. It's difficult to wear the right thing ;-)
This evening Ron showed me a huge field of Sunflowers - beautiful!!!! And we saw the sundown.
These sunflowers are just amazing! I'm very impressed and this is field is HUGE!!!!!!!

This evening I learned the vocabulary for the test tomorrow and I found a way, how it's easier ;-)

Dou you find it, too? :D
Push your thumb for tomorrow for me please!
Best regards from beautiful Kansas!
