Second week
Okay, so I'm a little behind because I'm writing about my second week of school after starting the third. In my opinion, the second week went better, I met some more very nice people (once again, think they're friends but honestly don't know). In class, there are teachers that will ask me questions, like the history teacher, just because I'm American so they think I can recite the whole tale of the war for independence by memory. Needless to say, I cannot do that but I try my best to answer any questions. In English, I presented about my accent, which was weird because to me I don't have an accent but everyone was very funny and in shock when I started speaking. As well, I signed up to be part of the school's volleyball team in order to meet new people and do something active. Things are looking up and I am excited to see how my third week goes.
