Well, today is monday, the first day that we start going to school. It is a very big school and there were many classes to attend. Luckily, the classes were not too long and some were fairly easy to understand whereas, there were some classes in Catalan. For the first class, I went to Spanish with Pol (my spanish buddy) and in spanish class, they went over their homework and.... that was all. It was very odd for me because I am used to having grammar lessons in spanish class. Then, we had Socials Science (which might be called Socials Studies in Canada), in that class, we went over more homework and then the teacher assigned some work related to tourism for the students to do. After that, we went to math which wasn't too hard fortunately. Then we had SECOND breakfast! During second breakfast, the parents would pack some sandwiches for us to eat and we would all meet up outside and eat. Then, it's back to class for us. We then went to French. In French, I did not do much because they had an exam, so I just sat there staring at the wall and out the windows. Then it was art, in art, they had to design a logo for a company they were creating. I did not have a company but I started drawing a few logos (which weren't that good). Then we had Lunch, which was in a cafeteria. There wasn't much food in the cafeteria but there were alot of people. I had chicken, it was pretty good despite the fact that it was a bit more dry than I was used to. After lunch we had a really long break outside. During that break I played a little bit of soccer but then I just left to go talk to people. After that, we had two more classes, we went to Lab, where we watched a video about the manhattan project. Then after lab, we went to English (which was another exam, but it was done in pairs so I worked with Pol). After english, we went home. At home I had an early dinner (6:00PM). Then I got on the computer and worked on this.
