Yesterday night, my host sister Ines came with me to the Goethe party which was also fun, and the Brazilians tried (key word) to teach us how to samba! After it ended at midnight, we thankfully decided to go home instead of going out with the others, because once we walked through the door, my host dad came down the stairs and said that the ambulance was on its way because my host mom was sick. Two minutes later, four EMC's got there and it was a little scary because I couldn't understand the majority of what was going on, but they said Monika would be OK and wouldn't have to go to the hospital. After the EMC's left and Monika was more stable, I finally figured out that she had fainted then was getting sick constantly which is why Thomas called the ambulance... It turned out to be essentially a worse version of the 24-hour stomach flu I used to get when I was younger and Monika is doing much better today!
On a happier note, I officially booked my train tickets to go to Berlin next weekend! We have a long weekend since the February session at Goethe ends and the March session doesn't start back up until the following Tuesday, so we're leaving on Wednesday afternoon and coming back Sunday! :)
