I again reluctantly woke up and climbed out of bed to eat a snack. I took a shower and got dressed in my sports uniform of a sweat suit. I was still nervous because I will probably be nervous for a while  (I am just like that).
   I got out of the car and climbed up the stairs to our classroom. There was one table full so I sat alone at the empty one. The physics teacher asked for my homework and I gave it to him. He said that I had one answer right but I needed to convert my fractions into decimals. Once I realized what he was saying, I solved the problem and got the correct answer.
       More people came in after me so soon my table was also filled. I was the first on my table to finish the problem and I had to help a third year (Maya) add fractions. Unless the problems suddenly get more difficult, I will probably have to bring my math work book from the United States so that I can keep up with my classmates at West. The whole time for double physics was used trying to help kids figure out how to solve the not-very-hard-problem.
      We ate crepes and corn tamales for breakfast though I didn't realize that after we made all the cheese crepes they would make sweet crepes instead so I forced myself to eat the whole crepe (which wasn't very good) and after, half of a corn tamale. We washed our plates and brushed our teeth before we went back to class.
     Next we had Math with a teacher that I think is really nice. The class split into the two groups A and B (A for more advanced and B for less). I was in the A group and she gave us a notebook and a math book with story problems though all she wanted us to do was one problem. I finished that rather quickly and I asked her what else I should do, she told me to go from page 8-13. She put us in pairs, Favio and Maya, Toño and Anita and Emmanuel and I. I showed Emmanuel how to solve the first problem and then we went on all the way to page 11 or 12 by the time everyone else had barely finished the first problem. I think Math time may be another time in which I can work in my workbook.
    They told us it was time for PE after Math so we went outside and I asked Maya and Emmanuel what we were meant to be doing. They said that there was no PE teacher so some kids went on the trampoline and they tried to show me the horse. The horse was nowhere to be found, but we still had fun walking around the forest. They showed me the tree house that was used occasionally by students there.
    We then had jicama with chili on it but thankfully they didn't put chili on mine because I don't really like it at all. Then I thought we were supposed to have history but instead we had double Spanish class in which we did a really cool experiment. We were told the day before to bring bandanas today, we all put the blindfolds on so that we couldn't see and got into partnerships. Maya was my partner and we had to tell each other words without talking. Since I went first, I chose the Helen Keller way and we drew it on each others hands. It was easy for me to write the message but hard for me to understand what she was meant to be telling me. The activity was to kind of understand Helen Keller's situation and I was surprised that I had never thought of that before. It is kind of a "duh why didn't I think of that before?" sort of experiment.
  We went home, and after I finished my homework, Adelaide and I made pesto, garlic bread, and scones. The pesto turned out really well and the garlic bread got a little torched but the ones on the outside were good. The scones that we had at the end were DELICIOUS; some had raisins, and some had chocolate chips. All in all, it was quite successful.
Good Night!
