We, my father, mother, sister and I, drove to church in a neighborhood village. We arrived thirty minutes early. The mass began on time at 10 o'clock. Normally only one person holds the mass, but today the dean from Freiburg was here. He is the so-called donor of the confirmation. I am my sister's elder , so I should lay my right hand on her shoulder during the actual process. The dean laid his one hand on top of her head, and with the other he wrote a cross on her brow.

After mass we went home and ate cake with the grandparents. At 3 o'clock we watched "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire", but before the movie started, we needed to see the trailers or close our eyes for forty minutes. "Catching Fire" was a litte bit long, nevertheless I liked it. I can't wait for the last part, "Mockingjay". I hope that they don't make two movies out of one book, like the last novel of the "Harry Potter" series.

Then after that we ate Asian food for dinner. I got spring rolls and beef with cooked rice, vegetables and Thai curry sauce. The rice, the vegetables, and the sauce tasted well, but the beef was tough.

I hope you enjoy my little report. I hope to see you again!
