A Boating Adventure

I haven't experienced going on a camping trip yet nor have I gone on a fishing trip but I surely would love to experience them both. Perhaps when I am a bit older, me and my family could go on an outdoor trip: camping, hiking, fishing and doing other outdoor stuff. For now, I am happy and delighted to be sitting on a small boat pedalled by my Dad while eating ice cream and doing a little cruise around a lake. 

I have tried doing the scenario mentioned above and it was indeed lots of fun. I couldn't even wait to get on the small boat so that I insisted on sitting on a defective boat that was docked on the port while waiting for our turn to board the boat. I was able to ride one when we were driving through the Schwarzwaldhochstrasse along the Black Forest in July.

This was one of my summer adventures with my family and I was really happy to be out in the great outdoors. I got some more photos to show and more stories to tell but those are for some other blog entries. Hope you all stay tuned. 

Thanks for the visit!

Having A Hard Time In School?

It is back to school once again for many schoolchildren. Although not yet on K-12 myself, I am aware that many are starting on a new grade level and that means, adjusting to many things: schoolwork, classmates, subjects and so much more. It is also time to go back to reading books, solving problems, getting homeworks.

But school is easier spelled than attending it every single day, with all the Math questions that many K-12 and college students are faced with. That is why online tutoring can help a lot in solving these sometimes seemingly complicated problems. 

Many students hate Chemistry. I don't know why because I haven't studied it yet but the moment they hear about it, they would complain. They sure could use Chemistry help from my Mom or any other able tutor for that matter. 

But why online tutoring? Because children and young adults these days are more into computers and find the virtual interaction more appealing and interesting than having a face-to-face tutorial. Students can get a better understanding of prime numbers through a virtual whiteboard workspace that both the tutee and tutor can work on. And because the tutors are available 24/7, schoolchildren and students can seek Geometry help, Physics help and Chemistry homework help on any given day. The children also get specialized one-on-one instruction at the convenience of their home.

Online tutoring has all these advantages to offer. And if I should ever need help with school, I would also ask Mom to get me an online tutor if she is too busy to help me out.

Schwimm, Schwamm, Schwamm

I have always loved the water. Maybe because I was born under the fish sign. I love to bathe in a bad tub, in the sea or in the swimming pool. Unfortunately, I can only go swimming in big bodies of water when we are able to travel because we live in the heart of Europe, where the ocean is hundreds of miles away.

I just got back from a recent vacation in Rome, Italy, together with my family. We had a family reunion there because my grandparents and my uncle (Daddy's brother) and his family were there to share the days with us. We stayed at a camping resort near the Tiber River in Rome and it was a whole new experience for all of us. We lived in mobile homes and it was quiet and relaxing and a good place to be after a day or two of sightseeing in Vatican City and Rome.

There was a swimming pool at the camping resort. The weather was so fine one day that we decided to take a dip. Mommy, however wasn't able to pack my swim suit in my luggage so that I had to go in my onesies. I still looked cute in it but it felt really cold when I got off the water.

My Daddy was the one who swam with me and gave me some swimming lessons. I was so delighted to be in the water that I didn't want to get off. But some good things never last. Especially for a little girl like me who is prone to colds. So after a few laps, we went back to our rooms, showered and changed.

I wish we could go swimming again. And this time, wearing a proper swim suit and be able to stay longer in the pool.

Fun Halloween Costumes

Autumn is slowly making its way on this side of the planet. The air is cooler, it rains more often and things are slowly turning yellow. I love this time of the year because it is not so hot anymore and I could get an excuse to dress up in any way I want to. Why? Because it also means halloween is just around the corner.

I don't know if my parents already have ideas for halloween costumes but anything goes for me. I can dress as a viking or a cow or a princess or whatever because I know I will still look cute and adorable in it.  Well I guess if we were to attend a halloween party as a family, my Mommy and Daddy could look for adult halloween costumes. Maybe we can go together as a Viking family. There's this really nice viking hat that we found at a souvenir shop the last time we were driving through the Black Forest.

Of if we won't go to a halloween party, we could just celebrate it ourselves, just the three of us. Mommy could choose sexy halloween costumes and we could have a little party at our house. I know my Mommy wouldn't dare wearing anything sexy in public but I think she would dare wearing one with just me and Daddy around. I guess that would be a fun halloween party for us. More so for me because of the treats that I will be receiving that day. Whee!!! I can't wait!
