Well, Im dying, just so you know, I AM dying. Im sick, I have a really bad cold, which I blame on 1. the fact that the standard greeting is to kiss on the cheek and 2. the fact that I went Kyaking for 6 hours yesterday. But I guess the Kyaking was worth it, it was really fun and I got to talk to another girl who speaks fluent english (lol, she's American) for about 10 hours, if you count the time on the trains as well as the time spent cramped into the kyak. Yes, I do know I cant spell Kyak.

Yes, so her name is Bailey, she's from Illinois, and we're going to do something after I get back from france. Um, so obviously my trip to france was approved by Rotary! Yay! I leave Wednesday, and get back on the 1st I think. Woot, only 2 days of school this week, well, maybe 1 of I still feel like this tomorrow.

School and whatnot

Today was my second day of school! All is going really well, I dont have all my classes yet, so I spent over half my day in the library while the rest of my class did advanced Dutch, or advanced Chemistry, but uh...English class went well!LOL

But seriously, everyone, teachers, students, everyone is being really great, making sure I understand whats going on, including me in conversations even when I dont understand, stuff like that. They've had quite a few xchange students in their school before, so they're pretty much used to it I guess.

Im a grad again, so I get to participate in all the Grad activities, like selling sandwiches at lunch to raise money for the Grad trip during spring break! Yep, we vote on where we want to go, past classes have gone to Greece, China, CANADA. I hope they dont pick somewhere really expensive this year (I also hope they dont pick Canada for that matter), I really want to go, but I also REALLY want to go on Euro Tour, which is with the Rotary Club. Hmm, Rotary said something about paying for school trips I think....
The school is also trying to plan a field trip to Poland to go to Austwich, ahh, I know I spelled that one wrong, but I that would be amazing to go there.

Ha ha ha, to those of you who went to my Graduation in Canada, there were 500+ students to sit through walking across the stage, my graduating class here is more or less 40. Two classes of give or take 20 students. I feel like Im in the 50's or something, hee hee hee.

Im going on vacation for 10 days in the south of France on the Med. Coast, I leave on the 20th. Just thought Id throw that in ;) Ill get loads of pics, dont worry!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love.
