A late start and Thanksgiving?

Today we didn't need to be at school until 9:30 because we didn't have double German first thing. This meant we didn't even need to leave home until 8:45! Once we arrived we had double chemistry where we just pretty much went over safety procedures because it was the first time the Germans had chemistry this school year as there was a timetable change at the start of this week and science is on a rotation. Chemistry replaced biology! Too bad that we are going to start with organic chemistry first anyway. After chemistry was going to be almost 3 hours of lunch because there was the normal 2 but we had a free before lunch because on Tuesday KL, the roll call thingy, went into lunch. It was OK though because we ended up having German anyway because the prac teacher was being marked on by her uni. So that took up the free period and some of lunch which was a bonus. Lunch was Thanksgiving themed with turkey and cranberry sauce, cream corn, pumpkin pie, stuffing and an apple cinnamon dessert. Come to Germany and have American lunch! Apparently the school often has themed lunch such as Bavarian food and everything blue and white for Oktoberfest. After lunch we had double music where we learnt about homophony and polyphony. Now dictation is hard in English. Try writing down a page of notes, being read out to you, in German! After that we had GK where we finished of the economy simulation by comparing who had the most money by the end whether it was Asian or European workers, handlers, factory owners etc. Most of the Asian workers were in debt :(

  1. The dictation sounds mind blowing! It all seems very random. No lesson, oops yes there is one after all.
