Stake dance & Wacky swim

August 11, 2012

Wat een leuke avond, eerst wezen babyzitten met Emma, daarna zijn we langs een dansavond gegaan. Veel gedanst :) Heel leuk om mee te maken, zo verschillend van nederland allemaal. still love it here ! ♥

Deze woensdag ben ik naar een wacky swim party geweest. Heel gaaf en gezellig was dit. Allemaal zwemwedstrijden gehouden, maar helaas heeft onze wijk niet gewonnen, ondanks dat toch nog een hele leuke avond gehad, hadden we zulke activiteiten maar in nederland !

First day of school



August 8, 2012

ahhhhh first day of school, so excited! Luckely, I wasn't nervous at all. The alarm went off early in the morning so I had enough time to get ready. Emma, ​​Ben and I were brought by car (great if you're used to 20 minutes of cycling). the school began at 8.30 AM. Below you can see my schedule.

Period                              Course                         Teacher                              Room            
1                                       Senior English                Paulus, K.                            201
2                                       Chemistry                      Tozzi, L.                               034
3                                       Dance                            Layton, J.                             G/PE
4                                       Choir                             Farenga, J.                            850
5                                       Seminary                       Br. Jardine                             SEM
6                                       Algebra                          Wieler, S.                             111

So this is how a regular schoolday looks for me. Very different from the Netherlands as you can see, but I love it ! The school is very big, it has at least a couple thousand students, so it is very busy in the hallways.

I made a lot of new friends, everyone has been so nice to me so far !

andddddddd, it might sound crazy, but I love the wheather !! Some times it's to hot, but mostly I like it. I'm not used to it, that's probably the reason why I love it so much.

August 3, 2012

The big adventure began on August 3. The alarm went off at 5 o'clock in the morning. 2 hours driving by car heading towards the airport. Arrived at the airport, my dad and I checked in. After that the time arrived that I had to say goodbye to my family, that was the hardest part. After many tears I finally got on the plane, luckely, together with my father.
