Back to school

This morning Lynnea and I woke up at 8am and got ready for school. We were dreading it and excited at the same time because we wanted to finally see what the school was like.
Once we got to the school, we went into the office and enrolled, they have an english class at this school so we met the english teacher and she explained to us what we were doing and was actually our first class of the day.
After we went to buy school supplies....yes school supplies.....we went to our first class, English (of course). It worked out for the best because everything they were learning in english, our teacher was able to teach us in Italian....so i'm actually able to understand what is going on. It was really funny because everyone in our class was super excited to have us, and ask us questions in english.

After that class, we were done for the day, and as we left we were handed our schedules, tomorrow, we have to go at 8:20am...WHAT!
Tomorrow we start off with Italian (either grammar, history or geography of Italy) the we have some kind of economic class, then we have physical education (with our coach Davide) and then another italian class. So our school goes from 8:20 until 12:20.....WOOF.  I'm only looking forward to our italian class!

Our schedule changes daily, on monday we have Italian class, back to back, then economy, then another italian class. And on tuesday, wed, thursday and friday we have science, french, math, english, social studies, it changes daily.

Sooooo we are thinking this is a high school type school, but everyone we ask tells us it is a private school, and it is the school you go to to become a teacher.....sooooooo awesome! some how i am learning to become a teacher....at least i will be learning italian, and keeping up to date on my french!!!

Today after school, we went back to our apartment and rested because we had practice tonight and we have a scrimmage tomorrow!!! Tonight at practice we played ALOT! it was awesome! But my legs and arms were SUPER SUPER tired because we have done weight training, some type of jump training every day this week.  MY LEGS ARE SHOT. It was really really hard to jump and at one point i'm pretty sure I tried my hardest and I didn't get off the ground at all....it was funny, my coaches looked at me like what?  I just pointed to my legs and said STANCA (tired)

Well off to bed for me....we have school tomorrow (yes SATURDAY) at 8:20am....oh yeah and a scrimmage at 4:30


italian word/phrase of the day: da dove vieni?  "where are you from"

Ready for school! ha
