As you know I live in the UK now to learn english, but I thought my english was worse than it actually is. I'm in the advanced class.
How the travel went?
Well, I went to Amsterdam by train, that was all okay. When I was at Schiphol I needed to check in, that was something, you need to do it yourself now. They wanted extra info from my ID because I was traveling to the UK or something, some woman standing there said she had never seen that before idk.
Then I wanted to check in my luggage and believe it or not, you need to do it yourself now! And of course, the device was like, ain't gonna help you... move to the help desk and I did and after a while we knew why that horrible thing didn't like me and I didn't have to pay for my luggage after all.
I went straight to the first bench an sat there ate some bread and went to the plane. It was a little plane I needed to go there by bus. The plane was full of british ppl, I would have expected a few more dutch people. And all the british people were sleeping hahah. They woke up for a free drink an cookies though haha. After slightly longer than an hour, we were a bit delayed because of the wind I arrived in the always great Britain!
I took the shuttle bus to Clifton, the neighborhood I live in and where the school is.
I arrived and I live with a south korean girl and a swiss girl (they barely speak any english) and a swiss guy whose english is slightly better. A spanish guy left today after 5 months.
I'm in a class of 8, the day starts at 9:15 with grammar, end at 11. A half hour break then some reading. Which is soo easy, we made a mock exam and over like, 40 questions I made 2 mistaked, and I'm not unproud of that haha. We stop at 12:45, then we have a lunch break and go somewhere to eat.
I had this enormous hotdog on tuesday haha! Everybody had to take a picture of it and I followed along haha.
Then we continue at 14:00 with writing on mondays and wednesdays and an elective on tuesdays and thursdays. I chose film studies. There is one dutch person in that class and it started on thursday so I haven't seen a dutch person till then so I got a tiny bit excited haha. He also likes Inception and Batman.
The 13'th we had afternoon tea at Browns, what else do you do when you're in the uk? haha. It was fun, we had scones, little sandwiches and some pieces of pie. We also had to do the pinkie hahah.
On friday after school they organize the friday film club, we saw Prometheus. I expected a bit more from that movie to be honest, because of the little hype, but it was a fun little movie.
The 14'th I went to see Man of Steel. 6 days early because it isn't due until the 20'th in the netherlands hahahahah!!! I loved the movie!!
On saturday we went to Windsor Castle, I loved it. Both the bus trip and the castle and the little town itself. I bought a new umbrella hahah. Juliana for Columbia also bought one and we took a picture haha. (more pictures form the castle will follow, but I felt too lazy to look them through yet)
I also apologize for the spelling mistakes and lack of capital letters, I'm a lazy person for now, ok.
