I started school on the 1st of September. It was very interesting.. I have really grown close to my class, and I really like them. The thing is, we stay with the same group of people the whole year. I'm with the music class. For the most part, I really like all of my classes and teachers. It's definitely a challenge with the language barrier, but I have a lot of friends who help me translate things. Even English class is difficult.. mostly because it's British English.
I have so many classes in school; Math, Science, History, English, Dutch, French, and then 4 or 5 music classes. I'm really lucky that I get to have flute lessons every week, and on top of that, piano and choir. I also started playing volleyball and so hopefully I'll be able to play in my first game this weekend. The level of play here is so high, but it's a really good challenge.
Last week, my brother and I went to see the Amerika vs Belgie voetbal game. Although it poured almost the whole time, it was still a lot of fun. I was rooting for Belgium by the way, and we won(: I'm pretty sure everyone there knew I was American and was confused as to why I was cheering for the "wrong" team. Oh well!
Then, it was Roeland's birthday. Astrid and I made really good cupcakes and zucchini bread. It was all gone by the time the party was over. Yum!
