I didn't update on my first day...not because I didn't want to, but because I couldn't get in (don't ask me why, cos I really don't know.)

Erm...I don't even think anyone will even read this but anywayyyysss...I'll just briefly write about what has been happening.

Um...So the first day was VERY confusing...because we had to like change classes after every period. And I had to know what to bring...and the lockers were insane! It took me like 5 times to get it open everytime...which made me panic cos I was afraid of being late for class....but atleast now I pretty much get it open every time and this girl (who was assigned to take care of me) taught me this thing where I like pre-open my locker...its like i do the whole combination...so that the next time when I need to open it I can just yank open the lock..which is really good esp when the hall is supper crowded between classes and after school...esp after school the entire hallway thingy is in chaos! haih...

So erm...I'm slowly adjusting to the school life here...I must say it is VERY different. There are plus and minus points in the classroom setting but I kind of enjoy it so far because it makes the subject (esp History and English) a lot more interesting. Like English, this term we're doing Macbeth...so instead of just reading it myself (which was what I had to do for British Literature for the Taming of the Shrew-also shakspeare btw) over here we take turns reading, act it out and the teacher even passed out a comic strip of Macbeth! Then for english we are doing WWI this term so in the first lesson we watched a video from youtube which was a clip from a movie about WWI and stuff like that...which make it a lot more interesting. But sometimes its a bit annoying because you kind of get it but the teacher keeps on talking and you HAVE to listen, and because of this she gives you less time to do the work in class meaning you have to make it HW...which sucks...lol.

Uh huh...but overall its not too bad. Like today in Bible class we got given lollies...we were to put them in front of us...and if we hadn't eaten it by the end of class we got to get another one. I think almost everyone didn't eat it by the end of class, so we all got an extra one..hehe...but...Bible class this year is not what you think it is. Its not about the Bible or whatever...noooo..instead this year our textbook was entitled "Love by the Book" even though it should rightfully be called "Sex by the Book" which is what my teacher said. Yeah..that's what we're talking about this year. SEX..in Bible class. lol...VERY unexpected. haha...but its not like how does sex work and stuff...but more like what does the Bible say about sex and learning about our "sexuality" and shit like that. LOL!

haih..so I'm getting pretty sleepy...so I think I'm going to crash soon. Nite peeps!
