Is there anything as nice as being snug in bed when a storm is really howling outside? Or anything so difficult at getting out of said bed? Well, ok, probably. But it still felt like the most impossible of tasks this morning. It was an impressively stormy day, though- I saw at least one tree and two umbrellas broken by the wind.
One event worth note for this week is that for the last week, my school has had a student-run music festival running in their auditorium. The performers were all students who gave concerts during the lunch hours, and it was a really great way for a event to be run- very laid back and without a lot of fuss or build up. That said it may have just seemed relaxing since for the first time in a while I wasn’t on the organizational side of a school even- and I’d forgotten how much I liked it!
I did have a good day, though, as it was (for most people) the last day of school before vacation. Two of my teachers passed around a box of chocolates for the class and I also received by grades for the first trimester. They were forwarded to me by my counselor after he received them first… and at the same time as he forwarded the transcript to the rest of the club too! So in short that’s what it means to have a counselor who is a teacher with direct access to the office. Of course, he only forwarded my grades on as a sort of congratulations, since my transcript had good reviews from my teachers.
Though I have a test tomorrow morning I am looking forward to vacation starting right afterward- I should get a chance to relax before moving house and will also get to spend time with my wonderful third host family in addition to my wonderful first and second host families. Who says that I’m missing out on the holidays with my family- at last count I’ve already got three!
