Awesomeness and Craziness!

Well I can't be any more happy with how I have done with my tests! Today I had my biology oral test and scored a 7.2! I now only have to wait a study for the retake periods to remake my Natuurkunde exam. Now this retake could have been any test but your only aloud one test per test period. All the other oral retakes were because my teachers were extremely understanding and let me speak my answers instead of writing them, because. My listening and speech, is better is than my reading and writing.

In gym we were using the rings for most of the class. Just yet another reason why Dutch schools and gym classes are awesome!

Some of you may have heard about the storm that's pummeling the UK right now, well you should know its dropping by here too. I know it's normal weather Nederland but for me it's a bit crazy. Biking home takes twice as long due to the fact that the wind is coming at me, but this makes going too school two times faster or just less energy needed! My rain jacket is holding up well, but has a few areas where my backpack's straps are that are letting some water into the first layer. I'm planning on buying some nikwax soon to help prevent this. Fortunately Tineke and Jan had a spare set of rain pants, and those are just as valuable, because without them I wouldn't care how dry my upper body is, my legs would be soaked!

To add to yesterday's post:
It was the birthday of my Opa (grandfather) on my dads side. I gave him a call and spoke to him in complete Dutch, which made him very pleased. I also was feeling the Christmas spirit as I wrapped quite a few things.


It's almost Friday everyone so just hang tight till the weekend. If your in the UK or Holland, take that phrase literally!
