Hello mates
last time i was speaking about school so this time i'll do it again...i present my favourite questions i've been asked at school:
- You don't have chicken in Switzerland do you?(i still don't understand why we shouldn't....)
Staying with animals:
- Do you have giraffs in switzerland?(i think he mixed up continents....)
- Do you live near the coast in Switzerland?
- Switzerland is the island outside of europe isn't it?
- You are Swiss right?(I answered yes....)So how is it in Sweden?
- Do you have the midnight sun in Switzerland?
- Geneva is the capital right?(no....)ahh right it's zurich(the french teacher must know i suggest we might change it for her....)
- Can you walk to spain from switzerland?(yep you can...i mean theoretically)

i forgot some i'm sure but i thought i can't keep these to myself....
school has been pretty good especially today(i finish at 11 on wednesday).
monday there are always rotary meetings and that's always funny. this monday we went bowling but not normal ten pin bowling. you bowl on a lawn and you throw a little white ball first, just like in boulle... then you have bigger ones that are heavier on one side so you roll them and they curve slowly to one side.... it's quite hard but it was fun. this is a typical sport that retired people do(i drive by with the school bus everyday twice).
Today it was matthew's soccer practice and i went with him and played on the field for a bit. my soccer team starts training next week. what else.....?? on saturday it's matthews birthday and he makes some sort of party where we go to ahhh some place nearby and do climbing and i think something like laser tag or so....
i'm slowly starting to know some names at school which is rather helpful because i hate it when i don't know anybodies name...
one more thing i just thought of... since i'm not the only one that gets to go out of school early on wednesdays there is a rule that you need a leave school pass. i got that and on that it says that you will do things for school at home during the rest of the time. some people came to school with their surfboard under their arm....so much for studying! well i think that's all....didier cuche is just winning the super-g.....yay!hope he does it!
