Finally Weekend

Today was a great day, even though I had school in the afternoon. I finished all of my homework in time. The one thing that annoyed me extremely today, was my French teacher. Maybe it is just me, but he is treating me like I am stupid and I am sorry, I don't think I am. This might be a wrong feeling of me, but that is the way I feel. I wish I wouldn't care as much. I don't even want to participate anymore since he seems to always point out whatever I do wrong in a way, that it makes me feel stupid. I am glad he corrects me, because I always want to learn, but I would appreciate it if he could just do it in a nicer way. Whenever I have to write some French text I think in English and write English-French, if you know what I mean. The funny thing is that most words I am missing and I remember in English are also usable in French (of course with a little bit different spelling). Well, sorry to always keep talking about this.
When I got home I had to send Theresa a file of English, but my dad borrowed my laptop and did something weird with it, therefore internet didn'T work anymore. So I had to bring this file to F-Share, because I can access this folder from a different computer. So I sent that file from my dad's computer :) I also wanted to blog during my lunch, but because of all those troubles there was no time left. So now I am finally blogging.
Religious Education was really great. We were talking about justice. What is just? Is there a possibility to be just for everyone. And in the second hour we played a game. This is morally extremely hard to decide on. It is a simulation of a family living in the third world. You have basically no money to start off. And you have to decide if you want to sent your children to school, so that it gets some education. We had to form couples. I was playing with Jonas, the boyfriend of Maren, I don't know if you remember him. Anyway, during the first round he died of AIDS leaving me behind with one son. The sad thing about this game is that this is REALITY for a lot of people. Next week we will play the whole thing (we didn't have enough time for it today). I think this opens a new point of view. I am thinking about buying it for myself, but right now I am thinking, with whom could I play it. Wouldn't that just be a waste of money. I can always buy it when I need it.
When I got home I straightened up my room. Quite a mess has accumulated over the past week. I will also vacuum the floor still. I will do that as soon as I am done with blogging :)
I have about one more hour till sunset. Also, I have to try to go to sleep early today. This Sunday there are elections going on, but we have a rehearsal of Adventus Domini, and I really didn't practice enough. I don't know how we will manage to vote, but I am sure it will work out, well it has to!! I want to take part in elections, so that I have a right to say, this was my fault, or this shouldn't have happened or whatever...
There is a lot of homework awaiting me this weekend, so it is a good thing you won't have time. I will busy all the time. I didn't plan with the Adventus Domini rehearsal. I have to study 7 pages of French vocab for Monday and I want to get 15 points to get a good start. All the tests together are one fourth of our grade!! So imagine what it would be if I would get a 25% 15 points average. This would help my grade an aweful lot, but I doubt this is going to happen. I always mess up at least one thing.
This is pretty much all that was going on besides picking up my sister from school. I fear I won't time to answer reltalks today, because we will have dinner in 15 minutes and this is not enough time for me. I am sorry that I have kept procrastinating my blogs. I apologize. I will do this as my sabbath evening activity.

    Sounds like you had a busy day there. I think you will definitely be able to enjoy tomorrow. Hopefully you will be so rejuvinated that everything will go well for you on Sunday.
    That sounds like a really interesting game. I think it is probably very useful in getting people to realize what is going in other parts of the world.
