School & Punting

As usual we went to school in the morning. Gradually I’ve managed to remember which way I have to go. But sometimes I forget to turn and then I totally lose my bearings. In school we did some activities like the alphabet game. You choose eight categories and one letter and all the player have to find words from the categories which begin with the letter given. After the big break we changed the teacher and now Tendaiy was our teacher. With him it was real fun! In the moments when we weren’t laughing because of him we did some games to find out what kind of person we really are. First we had to write a sentence about what we hate doing at home. For example: I hate cleaning my room, because it’s so boring. The he read the sentence out loud, but he changed the “cleaning my room” to “sex”. So the sentence was: I hate sex, because it’s so boring. Many funny sentences originated. After this we had to write about one of our dreams and describe how we felt during that dream. Afterwards we read it to another student and he/she had to interpret our dream. At the end we listened to our radio shows we had done the preceding day and then school was over. In the afternoon we went punting. We were in four boats and our punter was called Charly. It was very cozy but after a while we could also punt the boat ourselves. Because we weren’t that good, and because it’s very difficult not to change the direction, we crashed many times into the other boats. Then the punter of that boat started to sprinkle us with water. This was the beginning of a water-battle. We were a little bit wet but happy, and so we went back home.
