Cows and exams


This spring we have two big projects in school. We are working in different teams with seven people in each. It's a challenge... for sure! But also a lot of fun. I get to know myself and my classmates so much better each day. These projects are extremly important because this is how we'll be working in the real world. Teachers work in teams and have to sort out any conflicts that occur. And you can't avoid conflicts when you meet seven hours a day/ five times a week. Last week we finished our first project which was about cows. Haha, yeah I know ;) Basically the theme was "My home" so we described the cows lives and also took a trip to a cow farm during our work. It was such a blast meeting that farmer and his 165 cows. 
Not to mention the calves.






 
The presentation went well if you don't count the fact that everyone in our group was sick. We tortured ourselves through that last week with horrific colds and sore throats. And we're still struggling with it. When are we ever gonna get better!?



The rest of the school exams haven't gone so well either. I keep failing them over and over again. Despite of this I still haven't collapsed, like I did earlier this semester because of stress. My private life is getting better and better so that's what is keeping my head above the surface.
It's so strange thinking of how much my life has changed these past two months. Many have said that I've changed, which is fun because I think most of it is in positive ways. I'm a completely different person and still I feel the same. I guess that's why is called development.

A lot has to do with that weekend...
It takes a lot of guts to head out on a journey like that all by yourself. But I just thought that Viper had done it before, so of course I could do it too! I mean, why not? She was scared and so was I. But now that I’ve taken that first leap I can just keep on going. It’s like bungy jumping.
