Nope, I did not disappear. I have to admit that I had imagined my "I finished highschool"-entry to be quite different.
The reason for the lack of updates is easy: my laptop stopped working. I can't connect the battery charger to the computer anymore, so there is no power. I was hoping it would be fixed soon, but since it won't, I'll use our old computer for an update.
Here is a little record of the past week:
On Friday, june 23th, I did my last exam. I went home, had lunch, and wanted to sleep a bit, but decided to go to Antwerp with a friend instead. Unfortunately, on Saturday, I had to get up at 6.45 to go to work. When i came home around midday, I was completely exhausted. Luckily, I started to feel better at night.
I tidied my room on Sunday :s
Then on Monday, we (= me, Ilke, Ellen and Lise) went to the seaside in Holland with the first-years of our school. Even though I wasn't looking forward to the trip at all, it turned out to be fun :) Pictures might follow later, as I can't put them on this computer.
Then on Tuesday I didn't do much. Went to school around 16.30 to hear that I passed.
I can't remember what I did on Wednesday :s Oh yeah, I went shopping lol. Bought a dress for graduation.
Then on Thursday, I went to school in the morning to hand in my schooldiary and get some instructions for graduation. Then at night, the moment was finally there: the official end of my carreer in highschool. Graduation itself was cool, but some moments were a bit boring. I'm proud to tell you that I managed not to do anything stupid (like falling over wires or so), and the entire thing passed (almost) without any emberassing moments. My results were good, and so were those of my friends. At least the work paid off then. Oh yeah, I even got the prize for religion (lol!).
After graduation we got our yearbook, and had a drink. Mom convinced me to go to my English teacher of last year to thank him for the influence he had had on my future. It felt quite emberrassing at the moment itself, but now I'm glad I told him. Around 11 me and mom said goodbye to more theachers and friends, and then went home.
Friday morning, I walked into Sint-Michiel (and yes, thats the name of my school...well, ex-school) for the last time. For the last time as a student I mean. I sold my books, and joined Ilke in selling hers. Then afterwards, we sat down and talked for another hour, until Ilke had to leave. Me and Ellen left a few minutes later. I turned around, gave the schoolgrounds a last look, and then walked on... goodbye high school.
After counting down the days till graduation, my feelings are rather mixed. I'm glad the schoolyear is over, but on the other hand I think I'm gonna miss it too. Suddenly college doesn't look that attractive anymore. I'm still looking forward to it, of course, but it just seems to be rather scary now. I think I'm gonna miss the "safe" feeling I had in Sint-Michiel.
Right now, I'm on holiday, and i'm free until the 31st of July (In August, I'll be working).
Since yesterday, the weather got very good, and I hope it will stay that way as long as possible.
Today it's exactly three weeks until Kriszti's arrival =) =) =)
I think i've written enough for now...i'm gonna find something to eat for lunch, and then enjoy the weather.
