The weekend started nicely on Thursday; a long weekend was just what I needed. It was a busy long weekend but one of the best so far.
Thursday and Friday were just normal days to relax and do a few things. On Saturday I had my very last soccer game here: I don't think I've ever been so sad about a game.  It didn't matter if we lost or won because we would come second on the ladder either way. Winning would obviously be a good note to leave it on so that is what we did. The end result was 3-1, I had to score three or more goals to get my goal count on 10 or above but unfortunately I only managed two goals. I am so happy that I got to play in Germany, it has definitely helped me feel comfortable in this rather unfamiliar place and, of course, my team was great and will never be forgotten.
Number 9 is my lucky number- 9 goals. 

Saturday night my friend Marlene and I had a sleepover, which was great, and we went on a really nice walk down to the river Rhine in the evening. I didn't want to make a big deal over my birthday so the day was very relaxed and in the evening I had a few friends over for dinner which was really nice. Turning 16 is here is a big deal because you can legally start drinking (beer, wine, etc.No heavy things), but to me it was just another birthday. I have six weeks to live it up and then I'll have to wait another two years.
Thank you to everyone who wished me a happy birthday and for all the kind messages I received- and of course the presents.
