Another day at school, whooo! haha, week days are pretty boring to write about. I've been watching a lot of soccer/fútbol at break time because we all sit out in the court yard, and I still can't get over how good everyone is, I really can't wait until I can start playing and embarrass myself, greatly .___. anyway, today I had,

Gym
Geography
Maths
___________
Break
___________
Economy
History
English

Also, because nothing particularly interesting happened after school today, I shall give you all a fun school fact. So, the school toilets are pretty terrible, the doors don't lock, theres no toilet paper or soap and it smells rather bad. When Cami first told me about the lack of locks and toilet paper, I thought she was joking. She wasn't. It still weirds me out a little and I try to avoid the toilets at school if possible. I regret taking the tatachilla toilets for granted, actually, I took tatachilla as a whole for granted basically. Education and facility wise, it is so much better, not saying that its terrible here, I just think I've gained a better appreciation for my education by being here. Mum would be proud haha.

Anyway, tomorrow is the weekend, So I'm sure I'll have lots of interesting things to write about (and hopefully some pictures)

I'm still getting used to being at school for six hours a day after I spent so long on holidays after year 12 finished. Anyway, today I had,

Maths
Religion
Philosophy
___________
Break
___________
Economy
Geography
P.I

Wednesdays are definitely my favourite weekday, purely because I don't have gym class (I still can't believe I have it 4 times a week, this is definitely some bad karma for me). Wednesdays are also the only day I have religion, which is essentially a study period, as we all just sit and chat, and P.I, which is like a special project class? Like students will do presentations and books reports, I still don't fully understand it. Today however, we missed out on economy because we had a university lecturer come and talk to us about the art program (I think), it was kinda boring, and I accidentally fell asleep (nothing has changed too much in that respect I guess), but apparently it wasn't only just me, so thats good I guess!

After school, I went out with my host brother Javi and his friend Paco and another friend (I can't remember his name to save my life) to el Corte Ingles, which is a huge shopping centre chain (I've seen at least three so far) and are all about the same size, or bigger than marion, one is like six stories. Anyway, we were at Corte Ingles because Paco had to buy a mac, so while they were doing that I looked around for a bit, its so huge! Marion is going to look so tiny when I get home. Anyway, I had a really good time, I still haven't been able to talk to Javi much yet because my spanish is so bad, but hes really, really nice and I promised to teach him English haha!

Anyway, that is all for today, sorry the past few days have been so photo lacking, I'll try and take some more soonish so its not just text all the time!

Today was my second day at school, and like the first, I still had no clue what was going on most of the time. As I'm not actually doing any work in classes at the moment, I usually just translate words and try and memorize them. Gym is really the only class I do work in. At the moment we're preparing for 'Dia Mundial de la paz juegos' which basically translates nto universal day of the peace games. At the moment we're making posters, Cami and myself are making one for 'voleibol gigante' or giant volleyball. Anyway, today's classes.

Economy

After dinner, I went with my host dad to a huge shopping center/the train station called Vialia. I had to buy a backpack for school, as I didn't have one. We also looked around a bit at the shops, because I also need to buy some more clothes (there was very few winter-y clothes available in Australia, I also didnt bring any gym clothes), although I didn't actually buy anything because I've already organised t go shopping with Cami, Mystiah and Kara on the weekend, I did however have a good look at the shops, and I can say I will very much enjoy European shopping and expect to return to Australia really, really poor ;D
