School is ............ Different?

So. Weekdays. Oh ! the horridness!

Well it's a 6.20 up-and-at-em for me. by about 20 to 7, i'm down having breakfast. I leave for the bus at 10 past. It's a really short walk, about 1km? or 900m? hardly anything at all.

The bus stop is incredibly funny to observe. There's a lot of littler kids, and all the girls (and girls + guys) kiss cheaks. I honestly thought it was a thing the older people would do, but the kids do it as well. Even seven year-olds. The boys all shake hands. Not a stiff-backed handshake, just a relaxed, almost wet fish handshake. The boys also do this when saying goodbye. It's sort of cute.

On the bus, all the college (junior high) kids are rulers of the bus and sit up the back.the older, more mature beings
(like me) sit at the front and listen to music.

At school, here's the estimated numbers:

75% of people wear converse.

40% of people smoke. There is no stereotypes of 'smokers'. it's just people smoke.

85% of people have Eastpak bags. About 50% of those people have black, maroon or grey bags.

And:

10% of girls wear heels. Most, thankfully, just were converse or flats.

School is long and very french. because it's all in french. Mainly, at the moment, i just look up words and write down everything on the board. Everything.Every single thing, so when i can read french, i can study what we've pearnt. it's annoying when the teachers only talk, so i have learnt to sit next to someone with very good handwritting that i can read.

Lunch is hot, with salads, main and dessert, and also bread and cheese. Fruit counts as dessert, in case you's wondering. To get into lunch, you carry your booklet around with you with your class and name on it. There seems to be some kind of order to the madness. Usually it's in whatevcer class you're in. Because all my friends are in 2 or 3, they get me in earlier with the whole 'she's an exchange student' card. So i get in earlier :)

Then school again.... pfft.

Then i come home on the bus. I walk home again and then i usually sort out my books and stuff, try to read and understand my homework, and blog????

And here's a link to my current favorite song. THANKS STEPH. :)
