Amazing, Tiring and Learning Week


Hello, everyone! This week was amazing, but very tiring. During the whole week, the candidates to be queen organized many activities in order to gain the votes of the students. All the activities were very funny because they were different from other years, especially how Wisy arrived to the school. She really caught everyone’s attention.

As I had mentioned, this week was very tiring. All the teachers overloaded us with homework. Some of them were simple, but others were too complicated in the sense that I had to check every single detail, especially with the story I had to write for the contest the school organized. I didn’t like this contest at all since it was imposed to my friends and me by the school. I don’t like when the school does this. It feels as though it is blackmailing us since it always finds a way to relate it with a subject, so it conditions our grade in that certain subject with our participation in the contest. I must say that I’m not the only one that is bothered with this because this always happens during all the semesters. But today, the teachers had to pay a huge price since now; they had to check all the stories made by the students. I think this was a good thing, so now they will think twice about involving participating in a contest a percentage of their subject because it was a lot of work for them. Moreover, I found this sort of funny since all the teachers were stressed out checking all the stories. I guess they felt how we feel when we have lots of homework and we have to work as fast as possible just to get their homework done. I think this was a good lesson for them.

Also, during this week, my team and I recorded certain scenes for the final project, but the thing is that we got behind schedule because of the tragedy one of our team’s member had, so this weekend we have to work as fast as we can in order to get the project done in time.

Looks like this is it for today, since I have to go to bed because I have to wake up pretty early tomorrow in order for my team and I to record the scenes that we are missing; I’ll be posting a new entry next week , so don’t miss it. Take care! See you!
