sick.....

i have the flu, so i didn't go to school today...blah blah. i stayed home and watched "finding nemo" hehee

it's SNOWING here....a lot! all of yesterday and all of today...at bb&n they would have given a snow day, but not at MIS...grrr....

CAN'T WAIT FOR SKI WEEK!! we're going to Kitzbuehel again!!!  there will be more snow than last time yay!

our hotel in kitzbuehel...isn't it cute??

got my grades back.....

and......

i got on to the...

HIGH HONOURS LIST!!!

yea! my average was 6.2....

i don't know what to do about next year....it's so complicated....should i stay or go back to lincoln? putting aside the fact that bbn is better and my house is there, what about the social life?

i mean i had very good friends there but i still didn't go out almost every weekend and not really co-ed....that was only in lincoln really. people are just better at being social here...more parties and outings...and they are so much fun. and in boston....yea you can drive at 16, but that's not gonna change the way people are...here you just take the safe public transport....with friends and you can go anywhere. and in america actually where do you go if you go out....you're not allowed into pubs or even dance clubs....so where do you go? yea a house, but it's not that exciting...

there i never and probably won't ever stay out with friends in boston till midnight, like i do many times, or 2 in the morning like i did once...? life here is more like the classic high school movie that teens in america think is so cliche, but it is really like that and when they go to college, they will be shocked at the drinking and smoking....i was at first. Then you just get used to it and it's not too bad (not that i drink a lot and i would NEVER smoke) maybe people are just overprotected there a bit...

it's just more exciting here...

it was very good, just very long....first time i ever saw a pause in a movie theater! leo was very good...i was impressed...he has a chance of getting an oscar.

then we all went on the s-bahn except for ricardo and jamar beacause they don't take the S6 and we ran into mr. PRITCHARD, our very very strict assistant principle, HAhhaaa...not such a problem for me but for some of the guys, because they see him a lot...it was pretty funnny....

busy busy busy! some work and mocks coming up!

we've been choosing our IB courses and that's what everyone is talking about! i think i will have a lot of cool people if i stay because they are doing the same classes as i am

here's a list:

• English A1 high level--finally some literature at MIS


• History high level--yay!


• French high level--will be so easy


• Biology high level--your only supposed to do 3 high level but they let me do 4


• Math standard--yea hopefully no more mr. bethune!


• German A2 standard--AHHhhhhh german for native speakers...it will be hard!

but i am still trying to convince andrea to take english high and german stand! but i might be in jmo's english/german classes and some classes with ollie....and other fun people!

going riding today! i'm finally changing horses....yea! no more stubborn Bella who bucks all the time and who never wants to move! i'm changing to this new horse, Timo

-madi

random thing i found:

so much schoolwork! the moment you get back from vacation all the teachers pile homework on you....WHY?  i have gone to bed so late recently and the flight from boston didn't help....blahahhahaaa

WINTER FORMAL was on friday night.....it was ok....not the worst dance ever, but still pretty booorrring! and no one really dressed up.... i like seeing people dressed up! heheee...they had 3 school bands, but they weren't really good, so no one danced when they were up...when they had normal music it was ok though!

oooo....and SOMEONE lied about having a boyfriend...hhaaaahha...it was SO funny!  jenny said that she had this boyfriend who is friends with Yvie and Verena. Jenny said that they were going out, but then yvie and verena asked him and he didn't know about it! SO messed uP!  jenny seemed quite depressed....serves here right for lying to everyone....

didn't go skiing yesterday...was too tired from friday...slept late and then went to Icky icking...my new house...blahh! but right next to it is a stable, so maybe i could share a horse with someone there!!!

ahhh! stupid xanga! i wrote this nice entry about my vacation and then when i clicked "submit" the "page could not be found"  well it was fun....some snow!

am back...school already is putting us to work! got my mock exam schedule... they seem like SO much work....at least they are at the end of february....how will i study for this and for the SAT? hmmmm.....stressed

going riding tomorrow! yay!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

guess how i spent new year's day?

A LORD OF THE RINGS marathon!!   since we got the Return of the King Extended Edition we watched all 3 movies in a row! (with some breaks of course)  That means about 12 hours of movies, since each is 4 hours long....hahaa...they are really good movies though.....

and i can't really say what my favorite one is...i like them all! The Return of the King maybe!

The Fellowship of the Ring:

those nazgul really freak me out! strider/aragorn is hot! and so is legolas of course....

The Two Towers:

gandalf is back YAY!! and i hate gollum...he's creepy!!

The Return of the King:

ahhh...i do love viggo!!
