A Few Quotes From Tonight.
The following is a little example of why I love my host family. Especially Martin, because he’s insane.
Me: I can’t buy all the clothes! I’ll never be able to get it back to Canada!
Martin: Well, mail some of it before you go.
Me: Do you KNOW how expensive that is?
Martin: …. So here’s what you do. You train some eagles to carry stuff to Canada…
Martin: … and then I ate 13 potatoes.
Me: Like, the little brown Christmas potatoes?
Martin: No. Like, real ones. The big ones that come out of the ground. So now my nickname is Mads. Because I ate 13 potatoes.
Me (sarcastically): I think it’s clear who has the best manners at this table. (Referring to myself)
Peter: Yeah, that guy!
Me: What? What guy?
Peter: THAT guy! (He points out the window to one of the restaurant employees who, for some reason or another, is running down the street across form the restaurant.)
Me: Do you ever feel like how you eat doesn’t match how you look?
Martin: Well, yeah. On the inside, I’m fat. But on the outside I’m a toothpick.
And this one was from a while ago, but I’m posting it anyway:
Dad: What’d you do today?
Me: Nothing. Literally. I slept, watched TV, read and was on my computer. That’s all.
Dad: You owe us all 13 lunch packs.
Me: There’s only 5 of us….?
Dad: We’ll be covered for a few days!
Oh man, I love my family <3
