The first thing that Michelle ever said to me, after I met her, was, "It is so hard to be funny in another language." I don't think that statement has been more false after spending the amount of time I have with her. The fact that Michelle knows how to speak more than one language never stops amazing me, especially because she probably knows more english than I do. I don't know anyone who doesn't immediately like Michelle after meeting her, she is truly an incredible person. She has definitely got my parents fooled because just the other day I was at dinner with my parents and one of our close friends and instead of bragging about my achievments to our friends, my parents could not stop talking about how bright and intelligent Michelle is. I think it was when I said, "Oh hey mom, what about me?" that stopped my parents from talking about Michelle for the rest of the evening.

Michelle has probably made more friends at our high school than I did when I first got to high school my freshman year, I dont know, I think its just because of her accent though (just kidding). Michelle and I have definitely had some pretty funny moments and some strange things have definitely happend to us, but if its not with Michelle than it would most likely be with our other two friends, Audrey and Sami. I never know what I am going to get with Michelle, so I look forward to everyday that I get to spend with her.

But, most of you already know all of this. I think that only reason Michelle actually wanted me to write on her blog is so she could look really really good in front of her friends and family.

This summer I am coming to Sweden to visit Michelle and her family. I look forward to it everyday. I am definitely excited to meet all of Michelle's friends and family becasue she never stops talking about them. I can tell she misses home a lot, but she is having a lot of fun here.

I am excited to meeting all of you!
