A few more days of the summer hols and I'll be in grade 11 officially! Kind of sad the hols are ending, but then again, I haven't seen my friends from school for so long, so that's something to look forward to. I heard this year in my grade, we will be having 30 newcomers! Record man! Ooh I'll have fun meeting so many new people. So far, I've met one girl from Australia alr. :)
So 1st day of school will be our orientation trip to seilpark balmberg, which is a ropes course. Should be fun; I've done one of this kind in Singapore. ;)
So... I think I've completed my holiday homework? Except for French, the instructions given were kind of vague. Like 'read quality newspapers about current events and make an overview with themes' -.- I just split into politics, economy, social, sport... I guess that's okay. I should get on reading more French newspapers (and not just headlines only)... :/
Hmm I'm kind of excited for the IB but slightly anxious too. Don't know what's gonna happen in the future. I think too much sometimes. :s
Oh yeah we'll be getting our MYP results soon! Start of September I think. Wish me luck haha! Hopefully I get a good score. I'm hoping at least 60 out of 63. Sigh, full score will be impossible because I sucked for PE and English. English hates me. Grrrr. My dad wasn't very happy. :( anyway, I went over to Martina's house to work on our first draft of our speech for the MYP graduation ceremony. 7mins so far. We can increase it to over 10mins I think. We need more jokes, more explicit descriptions, more detail. I'm bad at thinking of jokes but well, she can do that better haha I will trust her. :)
Hmm. Tuesday will be my last day of school hols. Meeting up with the blue girls for dinner in town! I was in 10Blue. ;) I think we should be staying in the same classes, but don't know, might change since we have 30 newcomers. :P
Hopefully the school year gets more interesting this year. I just realized, I am finally in JC. Ahahahaha.

So my friends mostly did pretty well for the O levels. I feel happy for them. One step up to JC. Haha finding out about the different programmes and JCs is actually interesting. ><
Just back from ski camp. It was really fun, with the exception of being the slowest skier in my group. :/ But that didn't really matter as everyone waited for me. ;) Tsk but that ski instructor was so slack and I bet he got bored waiting for me and telling me to do nicer parallels. -.- He found out I speak French, so he taught and spoke to me in French, so yup some French practice for me. I could understand 90%, and thus I feel pretty proud of myself. ;P Yup, but in 3 days, how could I master parallel skiing well, considering I didn't practise during the winter holidays? Oh well.
I also did tobogganing for the 1st time, which was totally awesome and I'd love to do it again! It's like sledging haha. Winter sports are just so fun! :) The only thing that was terrible during this camp was the FOOD. Some silly French lady chef started scolding all of us in French because we filled the rubbish bin with too many chicken bones and some leftovers. She shook the bin so hard due to her extreme anger that she spilled some food out. Then she left in a huff. Plus she was so angry because she told us beforehand that we had to eat up all the food because African kids are starving. Well we would if the food wasn't that bad.
