Exams and Such

I quite like the exam system here, a lot more than the one back home at least.

I've had three exams so far: History, English and Biology. On Thursday I'm taking Media Studies and then I'm done with this school year and will only have prize giving to go. So Thursday will be my second to last day in uniform - thank god. I really can't wait.
Tomorrow I'm going ice skating with the other Internationals, which hopefully will not be some sort of crash course in ice skating because I just really miss being on the ice so I'm looking forward to finally setting skates back on ice. Please let it not be a crash course, I just want to skate.
Maybe I'll be able to take some pictures. Hopefully.

On the 30th of November we're putting up the Christmas tree and I'm really excited. It has been a while since I had an actual, big Christmastree, so yeah I can't wait. But then after the prize giving on the 2nd Ashlee leaved on the 3rd for Vietnam for three weeks which means I won't see her for the majority of December, which sucks.

The only other plans I know of are that we're going camping on New Years Eve till the 4th, which means I will have my birthday while camping. I'm not sure if I like that or not, seen as I won't be able to skype anybody. Rowan hates it already :/.

Um, what else is there? Oh yeah. I am going to the airport on the 29th, to say goodbye to Ilaria, an Italian International student. Basically saying goodbye to my only actual friend here. Damn. I really am horrible at making friends. I hope that gets better next year. Please let it get better.

I'm pretty sure that's it. I'll update tomorrow about how the Ice skating went. Let's hope everybody is free to skate where and how they want. :)

PS: a third of my 18 months here is almost over, sort of really fast but still slow. dunno if that's good or bad.
