Snow

Today was freezing cold.  When we were walking to school, the weather was fine, but then it started raining and then snowing! The first snow since I've been here, but it wasn't sticking and it only snowed for about 20 minutes.

The first hour of class was Italian and I continued to reread my book. I'm actually understanding things that I didn't understand the first time around.  The second hour was physics and we got our tests back.  I got between a 7 and a 8, which is pretty good, but I also had a way easier test than everybody else.  After break, we had English and during that class, there was a dictation test.  The teacher read this really long poem thing (in English of course) and we just had to copy it down.  It was easy for me, but there were a lot of difficult words and I could see how it would be difficult for my classmates to get the right spelling of everything.  I even got confused on the spelling of some words.  The only hard part was the teachers pronunciation.  It was really confusing because she has a really strong accent and she pronounced the words how they were spelled and it was difficult for me to recognize what words they were.  Good thing she read each sentence about 5 times.  The class was also extremely loud and after each sentence, it took about 30 seconds to calm the class down.  It was kind of stressful.  Before the next class, we took a class picture, and of course it was outside.  I didn't want to wear my big jacket in the picture, so I was freezing my butt off and I had uncontrollable shivering! It was even hard to smile without my teeth chattering.  Some people in my class decided to wear costumes for the picture.  One boy wore his swimming trunks, and about four others wore a robe and goggles.  I think somebody was also riding a broom in the picture... I'm not sure.  Then we had math and I practiced writing in a cool font.  It just happens to be the font that my math packet is written in.  I'm just trying to copy it.  It looks awesome.  The last class was informatics and everybody just played games on the computers the whole time.

After lunch, I decided to sit in bed and relax.  My internet wasn't working so I watched two movies that my my mom and sister sent me. Then I had to get up and go to the gym.  After my step class, I came home, showered, ate dinner, and now I'm back in bed.  Time for to go to sleep, after browsing the internet...

Buonanotte!
