summer holidays have finally started, for me, that means six weeks of fun and traveling.
And after that, I'm going to be a 12th grader that means my last school year.
It honestly feels so weird thinking about it. I don't feel ready for life after school. I have no idea how anything like taxes, washing clothes or paying bills works.
I want to use this post to reminisce 11th grade.
It was stressful, fun, different/new and so short.
I don't know if it's just me but as far as I remember time went quicker with every year. I feel like it was yesterday that I started the school year. I blinked and it was over.
I'm going to a "Gymnasium" (sth. like grammar school or high school... I think) there are the years 5-10 called Sek. 1 and the years 11-12 called Sek. 2.
In Sek. 1 you pretty much have classes with the same people (exceptions are ethics/religion, Latin/Russian/French, and some kinda creative subject) every day over the years.
In Sek. 2 tho this changes. Every class gets mixed up and you won't see everybody anymore. Some a few days a week, others once a week and a few just in the hallway passing by. You meet new people. A friend of mine said to me that she has never seen that guy before that is in her class now. I do know him but it wasn't that different for me either.
Now as these two years are very important (doing my "Abitur" kinda A-level-ish) it does get a lot harder and time-consuming. There were so many weeks this year that I haven't really had time to rewind and do something fun.
Some subjects get easier, some harder and a few you don't have to attend anymore.
If I think back on the things that happened this year, there were many projects, people that are the worst to work together with and fun adventures.
Things I did were going bowling or to the theatre a few times with class.
A really important group work that one guy sabotaged for us all but everybody else in the group does not seem to care enough to actually tell him.
Teachers being savage or just completely done with everything. I've got many funny quotes in my planner.
I think the last school week is the best one. For me because of the drug prevention project for 7th graders called PEERS. It's from Monday to Wednesday every year. It is really important to show these young students the effects of drugs, alcohol and eating disorders.
Unfortunately, I couldn't be there on Wednesday this year because I had my AC (Assesment Center) on this day. Thursday was silly I went to school for 1 1/2 hours to watch something that did not make any sense, at least in terms of our curriculum. Friday we got our report cards, unfortunately, my tutor is in the hospital right now so it wasn't as nice or memorable.
I did enjoy school more this year than any other year before. And I'm already getting sad, knowing I have to leave so many people behind me when I finish school next year.
What school year are you in?
What is school like in your country?
