I've been doing the past-tense of verbs for two weeks now! I guess I'm a slow learner... at least the 'theory' is clearer in my head - now I just have to memorize the conjugations!
Aaste thinks I'm weird because I spend quite a bit of time studying (not as much as I should in my opinion). She tells me she doesn't have any 'homework'. I tell her it's not homework - it's just me trying to learn. She thinks it's because I haven't been in school for awhile that I'm enjoying this. I tell her I actually like to learn. Perhaps I have a slightly faulty memory, but I think I was this way even when I was her age - at least with the things I was interested in.
The school is terrific. It is located in a beach restaurant and the view from our 'desks' is of the sea. Sometimes people wander in and sit at one of the spare tables and eat breakfast, and after we leave at noon, it becomes a regular restaurant. The director of the school is the daughter of the couple who own the restaurant.
Each one of us has our own table, teacher, and whiteboard. The teachers seem to be, without exception, very friendly nice people. In the afternoons we often have an organized activity such as latin dance clasees, trips to beaches, horseback riding on and to a beach, cooking classes, hikes. This is when we get to spend social time with the teachers and fellow students and Aaste and I go to at least 2 or 3 activities a week.
Well... have to get back to studying now!!!!
End of the Journey
