Basically all of June and July was beautiful. It was sunny nearly every day, warm, and the sky was a lovely cerulean blue. Hardly a cloud was even in the sky. For once it was raining day in and day out. The weather was behaving well. As the month changed to August the weather changed [...]
Je ne crois pas que ce année était trop vite; il semble toujours comme le moyen de l’année, pas le fin! Mais je ne peux pas attendre pour l’étè! I have less than one week of school left. Ah! This year went by so fast- well, the end of the year did. It seemed like [...]
I’m part of my school’s Model United Nations (MUN) club and tomorrow we are going to New York City for the annual high school MUN four-day conference. My school is assigned Azerbaijan and North Korea as our countries, and my committee is North Korea EcoFin. That means that I’m a North Korean delegate in the Economy and [...]
One element of challenge 6, which I have chosen to do, is to write about a typical school day. I started high school this year, I’m a freshman, and I LOVE it!!! It’s so fun (although very demanding academically). My school has seven periods per school day (including lunch) and seven different classes. Therefore we [...]
I tried out for my school’s play this afternoon; I think I did well but I didn’t have opportunities to read much during the audition. I am hoping (praying) that I get it. The cast list is supposedly going to be posted tomorrow morning; my stomach is already twisted in knots just thinking about walking [...]
I started high school this past Wednesday, and I absolutely love it so far! I go to a public charter school (#1 in Massachusetts, as rated by Newsweek) and they are part of the IBO . When I’m a junior and senior I’ll be taking IB classes to get the International Baccalaureate Diploma when I graduate. My [...]
For my high school’s mandatory 9th grade summer reading I had to read “Sound of Waves” by Yukio Mishima and out of three choices I also chose to read”When My Name was Keoko” by Linda Sue Park. Personally I didn’t think either book was especially great. I liked “When My Name was Koeko” better than [...]
College est finis pour moi! Et maintenant je vais a lycee! Je suis tres heureuse! Albeit this post being belated, I am officially finished with middle school! And this coming fall I will be a ninth grader at a great school! It is the number 1 school in Massachusetts, and I think number 29 in the whole [...]
Photos from my eighth grade class trip to NYC (despite the approximate 6 hour bus ride there, it was very fun): Photo taken from the dinner/dance cruise on the Hudson River. Reception Hall at Ellis Island. West Side Story! a.k.a the musical my school saw on Broadway! After touring the UN, I was inspired to work [...]
Cette semain, sur mecredi, je vais à NYC pour trois jours! Je suis tres heureuse, c’est un parfait fin de l’ecole. Quand nous sommes la, nous allons voir un pièce à ‘Broadway’!!! Je pense c’est ‘West Side Story’ mais je ne suis pas certain. Quand j’était en NYC avec ma famille, il y a deux [...]
