Occurrences

Ahhhhhhh! My blogging habit is disintegrating.
This is a busy week, I've had two exams so far.
Señora Berna is extremely nice and she postponed the exam she had arranged months ago, so I only have to worry about math.
I'm in 607 Math, which isn't exactly HL but we do things faster than the other classes and we learn more details. Mr. Ufuk says the course isn't HL but we are HL students, which is motivating, but when we get the exams it can be terrifying. I didn't get my usual grade in the last exam, so I'm worried for this one too. I studied though. The topic is trigonometry and similarity, and I really have to look beyond what is shown in diagrams to solve the question. Also some problems are hard to understand, and unless you get them you can't solve them. Oh well.
We're also dealing with MUNESCO this week. I'm sure it'll be fun, but honestly writing resolutions isn't my favorite assignment. You have to think about many things and mention them all in the right way.

In English class we're reading Julius Caesar. I think it's fun and interesting, but I prefer reading the book instead of the white board. For some reason I don't like reading books or comics—actually comics is fine since they're pretty rare—on a screen. I like having the book in my hands, able to mark it, I like the smell of books, I like their existence. So I'm going to dig through my locker and find the book.

Something I think is very cool is that I caught my favorite legendary Pokemon, which is a bird Pokemon named Articuno. It was funny, I started my attempts at the beginning of Spanish class and continued till the end of MUNESCO practice, with my friends trying to help me and motivate me. I caught it at my fourth try when nobody was around, so I was just randomly cheering and waving my arms, and the only person at the table was staring at me.
Worth it.
