First Day

Today, I started school. It was strange not walking into Beaufort Academy, the school I have gone to all my life, and very intimidating not knowing any teaches or students. However, Tibble did a great job making me feel at home. I was given two guides for the year; I do not think they know what they are in for...I am going to need a lot of guiding.

In Sweden, high school is divided into programs and the courses students take depends on their program. I am in the Economy program.

I met with the counselor to go over my schedule.

Monday
10:00-11:20 English (Yes, an English class. I will be reading books in English and writing papers in English. I better be top of the class or something is wrong!)

Today in school, my class which is made up of 34 students (the same amount of kids in my grade last year at BA) went bowling. It was a blast getting to know the girls and learn some new Swedish words and phases.

Oh there you go dad, a photo of me before school.
