This Week!

It is as if everything is coming together to make one big Christmas week! The morning started off with a new challenge, biking on ice! I successfully made it through all but the second to last turn. But it wasn't all bad though. I made a very clean baseball slide with my bike and when the ice stopped before the new road, I almost popped right back up! Unfortunately my peddles weren't in a good spot so I had to stop and restart. Then in gym I had another great time with the third class. The are an aggressive bunch and after being tripped a few times in soccer my right shoulder is feeling sore. Also both my knees are hurting...I don't think I'll be doing much sport over the winter break.

Physics was physics and I am getting a grip on the new topic, and in Nederlands my test wasn't amazing (far from) but it was .7 points better than my last (remember the grading system has different values)! So I just need to pass my next one and we'll be all set. Also I may be taking part in a protest against a new law requiring schools to require seven more hours per week, but the schools don't have the money or teachers to do this do everyone would have to add seven KWT hours to their schedule. If for example I had French again I would still have to make twelve hours of nothing per week under the new law. The protest is Wednesday in Amsterdam

When I got home I found that my homeroom Skype meeting will finally happen and it is because of a stroke of luck that my last hour was canceled tomorrow! So if you can get permission from your teachers go to miss mortlands room #353 to say hi! I'll be with a few of my friends here so have your questions ready! If your reading from Holland come to the aula in the eighth hour!

With that, I hope to see some of you tomorrow!
