This feels like a diary on the internet, different than a blog, because I know nobody will read this, nor will they care ;).
And this gives me an excuse to write in English, which I love. If I graduate this year, (which is kind of doubtful, oh well...) then I'm definitely going to Dublin or somewhere else where they speak English. There’s this company in Holland that gives you the opportunity to go to a foreign country and learn their language. I’m thinking of going to Dublin or Edinburgh. Not that I don’t want to go to London, but… I don’t know, I think I’d like it better in a city like Dublin. I’m planning to go for 3 months or so. I would really love it, just because my English will improve there. How great would it be to have this british accent en be able to talk like a native speaker. *sigh*
Too bad I have to wait so long before I can go. First I have school exams, then final exams. Then I will have to work the entire vacation, or else I can’t afford to go. It annoys me, I’m so sick of this place and my school. Six years on one place is way too long. I want to meet new people, have new experiences… stuff like that. But no, I have to go to school every day.
Although today wasn’t too bad, yesterday was worse. We have to make this play for school and I’m the head of the writing group. I really love writing, but I don’t like people. And these people in my class just annoy me so badly! I’m not easily angered, but I’ll make an exception for them. I work my ass of for this play and all they do is complain. But oh well, now the writing group has come up with an idea they actually like, (I don’t, but they don’t care, as long as we write it) and we can finally start writing. We have four more weeks to finish it.
I was really excited to do this, but my motivation is kind of gone right now. I don’t even want to write it anymore… I really don’t like people.
We also had a test, English vocabulary (I passed, 87% correct ^^).
And we talked about English literature, from the romantic age. We discussed Blake and Scott and Lord Byron. I really like poetry actually, it’s too difficult to read on my own, but discussing it with the class is really cool. Even though there’re like only three people actually participating in the discussion. I like the romantic age as well. I’ve already read Wuthering Heights and Jane Eyre. I’m planning to read Agnes Grey as well, but I still have so much to read for Dutch literature as well. I like that to, but the Romantic Age wasn’t really a big thing here in Holland, so mostly I don’t like the genre or theme of the books. We’ve read Goethe for German today, he’s difficult, but he is a romantic as well. I think I’m a romantic as well, with my writing, and drawing. I idealise things and stuff like that. But I think there are a lot of romantics nowadays, with everybody complaining that civilisation is leading us to hell or something like that.
I’m just wondering if we’ll ever discuss the Romantic Age with French as well…
We’ve had Latin as well today, that Cicero dude is kind of funny. His Latin is very nice as well, I like it more that Livius or Catulle (he’s gross, actually) (don’t know if I got the names right, in English they’re different than in Dutch).
It’s too bad we can’t read Cicero for our final exams.
Oh well, I didn’t plan on discussing my entire day, but I guess I still did. I had maths as well today, but I don’t like maths, so I’m not going to talk about that in my free time :p.
There are a lot of birthdays coming up, I found out. It’s pretty inconvenient for me, because I don’t have much money this period. But the good thing about it is that I can go to a lot of parties. Get away from home.
I would really like to get away from home, actually…
Oh well, I could talk a lot more about people and other boring stuff. But I won’t, I have homework to do :(.
