school...

Its been quite some time since i've blogged and alots happend but i'll try to remember it all. I'm into my 4th week of school and its true, school everywhere is pretty boring. Or maybe thats becasue i dont understand most of it. Who knows. Anyway in Belgium, secondary school is 6 years with the sixieme (6th year) being the last year before college. In my school, i'm in the last year of school or Rheto. Theres two classes in Rheto, 6A and 6B. i'm in 6B with about 20 other students. I have most of my classes with this same group of people except for certain classes (like foreign language) where we're mixed.
this is my schedule. Every day is a different set of classes but every week is the same. There are 9 blocks per day and every block is 50 minutes. So sometimes you have a double block of something. Also you'll notice i have a lot of social science. Thats because thats my area. Every student has a focus. like mine is social science so i have more hours of that and only 2 hours of math and three hours of science. somone who is math fort could have up to 7 hours of math per week.

one thing about the classes that makes it difficult for me to understand is that its primariliy lecture style. No textbooks. The teacher may write on the board or just dictate notes. Because of that i miss a lot. Luckily some of my teachers have noticed and have starting writing important info on the board for me.
thats all for now
