Math...

I think I love my math teacher. I am, sitting alone at a table cause I got here an hour early so no one in my class is here yet. And he walks by and saw me, so he stopped and asked if everything was okay. And then told me if I had any problems I could talk to him. I think I might like math here

School...

Alright, so I noticed some fun things at school I had to write down...

First: Phones in school. Completely different from back home. First things first. Everyone has iPhones. And I mean everyone. I'm not just exagerating. EVERYONE! There's like 2 people out of the 28 of us that (Me not included, cause I get one, SCORE) don't have one. Okay, now that that's out of the way, the real issue. When your phone rings (Vibrate or otherwise) teachers totally don't care. They just continue on with the lesson like nothing ever happened. They're so chill! I've seen people answer their texts in the middle of class, nothing about it.
Second: Dress code. What dress code? There is none. It's awesome! You wear what you want and no one bothers. Hats, spaghetti straps, shorts, anything. But a lot of the girls take it to far. I've seen booty shorts, see-through shirts with just bra all out there, and there's girls in my class who wear low cut shirts/tank tops with their whole bra out. As for me, I'll just stick with hats and spaghetti strap dresses.
Thrid: Food in class. If you're hungry, eat it. Simple as that.
Fourth: My teachers (Minus English) have all given up on me understanding anything at this point. I count on whomever happens to be next to me at that point to help. And no matter who it is in my class, they do. They are super nice. My math teacher is actually my favorite. After he tells us to do something, he comes over to make sure I understand what's happening.
Fifth: Scheduale. So Americans, I'm about the blow your mind. They don't have a scheduale. Okay, I'll give you a moment to grasp that... In America they give you a paper scheduale and say "Here's your scheduale, it never changes and time is exact." Not here. You have to go on the computer and check every morning. Sometimes it starts at 8, others at 9, and still others at 10. And it changes every day you have different classes. only 4 a day. A 'long day' is when you get out at 15.35 (3:35) and a 'short day' is when you get out at 13.35 (1:35). And they sometimes let out class early, so you can chill before your next class. And if the teacher is gone. You don't have that class. No sub teacher. And if you don't show up, no one cares.
Sixth: Swearing. Not a problem. Not a single bother given about swearing. Teachers swear in class all the time. No one cares.
Seventh: No clocks in any of the rooms.
Eighth: Instead of raising your hand, you put up your pointer finger. That's it.
Ninth: And when every class is done. The teacher says 'Tak for i dag' whick means 'Thanks for today'. They always thank you for being there.
Tenth: Finally. My class. Where to start. Well, there's 28 of us...
There's Olive,
August (Who looks just like Trestan)
2 Emels (One looks just like Hunter S.)
Kristen
Joeanna
Joesophie (Who looks just like Sydney)
Dina (She's super cool. Rides a motorbike)
Ida
Nathalie (My best friend)
Lucas
Sara and Sarah
Max
Isabella
Sofie (She can bark like a dog. And it sounds real)
Rose
Camilla (Who looks just like Nicole B.)
Rusmus (He had blue hair)
And there are others but I can't think of their names. You'd be surprised how hard my name is. It comes out Samnta. My class is all super nice. One girl said they were all super happy I am in their class. They take care or me and help me with school and include me. I love it.
Well that's it for now!
Hej Hej!!

Different.

I hear people saying they were the same when they got back from their exchange. But I don't want to be the same. I want to me different.

So they play this game ( don't know the name) where they have one person blind folded and the other has clothes pins all of them. The object is for the blind folded person to find all the clothes pins. But they by them in the most awkward places. Quite funny actually

Count Down...

Okay, so I leave in 5 days... And I'm a little nervous. It's really strange that this is really happening. I can't believe that in just a few days, I will be halfway across the world with completely different people and language and culture around me...I don't know. It's real weird
