One day of my life

At her blog, Ida told something about her normal life.. And that inspired me, because, while reading that, i realized that i really don't know anything about normal life in Sweden, and probably you don't know anything about my normal day...
So i decided to write down a whole day for me. And because it's thursday, i will write down my thursday, also the subjects at school.

6.30 My alarm rings... It's a radio and because i'm like a dead body in the morning i stay listening to the music until 7.

7.00 Then i go out of my bed and get dressed. I walk down the stairs with my bag for school and, while reading the interesting things in the newspaper, i eat my breakfast. After breakfast i brush my teeth, get on jewels and make-up.

7.35 Again i walk downstairs, put my lunch in my bag and put on my shoes and jacket.

7.40 I leave my home and cycle to school. I wait near a supermarket for Sanne and Sophie. With us three we cycle along to school. There are 3 others, Laura, Jeroen (a boy) and Renske, but they don't cycle with us because they didn't have lesson the first hour.

8.00 - 8.05 We arrive at school, put our bikes with the other bikes and walk inside. We walk to the lockers and put our coats in it. Then we wait there a while and walk to the first classroom.

8.15 Spanish... Thursday is a special day in the week. Normally our lessons take 50 minutes, but at thursday they take only 45 minutes because then there's more time for the teachers to have meetings about everything with each other. With Spanish we just do the lesson. Do some excercises, sometimes we talk and she asks things in Spanish, so that's fun. This week we have done a song too, i really liked it. But today she wasn't there, and we didn't know. So we went sitting somewhere and just talk...

9.00 English. English always is a bit boring... Although Eva is next to me, the lessons are boring. We just do excercises or correct excercises we made as homework... Eva is the one that makes it nice...

9.45 Geography. The lessons themselves are quite boring, because the teacher looks a bit shy and talks not so loud and interesting, but I'm always having so much fun with Eva!! And that can be a bit hard, because everybody is silent... We're having a small class there and almost everybody is a bit sleeping, except for us. Geography can be so weird sometimes!!! And there's enough to laugh about!

10.30 BREAK!!!!! We are sitting on the first floor and eat something, drink something and talk a lot. With some people, i never have lessons so it's extra nice to see them :)

10.50 History. It's one of my favourite subjects because i have a very funny teacher. He makes me thinking that the way the people thought that time are very logical and you can really laugh with him. He can explain the things in history with things that are happening now, or just people in my class. History can be hard, but most of the times i like to go to the lessons.

11.35 Maths.... one of the subjects i hate. But my teacher is nice (she's my class teacher too) and she's very good too so the lessons are no problem. My teacher is quite young and sometimes she doesn't want either. Today some boys were allowed to go and buy chips for her, unless they paid, and we ate it with the whole class!

12.20 BREAK again!! This is what we call "grote pauze" which means "big break" (the first is kleine pauze = small break). In this break i have lunch and we do the same things as in the small break.

12.55 Dutch. I have already written down what i think about this... My teacher can be kind, but she's strict too. What i use to do with Dutch? Wonder why the things are made so hard, and wonder what i'm doing there....

13. 40 Class-teach lesson. I don't know how to call it else... It's a lesson from my class teacher, but it's not always there. Sometimes there are extra lessons for which you can enter yourself. Today we had that lesson and she gave some information about next year and that kind of stuff. And we picked a date for having a dinner with the class. We were allowed to leave 10 minutes earlier :)

14.25 Leaving school :D Today Eva cycled more, so she could talk longer with me :):) And the other part i cycled with Sanne and Jeroen, because the others had already left.

14.50 I arrive home :D I got something to drink and talk with my mum and brother, until he decided to start his homework. Then i only talked with my mum hahaha.

15.30 I went upstairs and started my computer. And after a long enough time i started with my homework. I didn't have so much....

16.30 So after it i started msn and talked with Anne and a boy i got to know in Spain, and i started writing this blog. First i talked in Spanish with the boy, but three languages at the same time is quite hard. After a while he asked if i wanted to talk in English or French, so we went on in English. His English is so good!!!

17.19 Now i'm still writing this blog haha. Anne and the boy, Jorge, have left and i'm listening music while writing the blog. And i'm thinking about the reasons i'm writing it in English. It's almost 2 years ago i went to England, so more than 2,5 years ago that i first "met" Ida. And what did we get close friends, all over internet!!!! I really must say you two improved my English so much! When i'm looking in my class, i really think my English is better than others, just because i use it. I got a lot more comfortable in talking it, writing it and of course listening and reading it too. Although listening with a Swedish accent and reading with Swedish mistakes. But does that mind??

I don't think so. Other people who are learning English, are much easier to talk with and the faults only can make me laugh. But maybe you think the same about me? I bet my English teacher could see so many mistakes, but i'm not learning English for speaking it perfectly and having a conversation with the English queen. No, i'm learning it to have communication with people from all over the world, people who are learning it too. I'm learning English to understand them and to get them understanding me. And as long as you two, do understand me and i understand you, although we are both making mistakes, i agree with my English.
