School start

It's almost the 29th, which means school starts for all the public school students - and yes that's me. 

I've been enjoying this holiday so much and the thought of going back to school is so repelling. But yesterday all the year 11s had to get their books, and being back at the school surrounded by my friends and classmates felt really good, even tho it was just for 10 minutes. 

I'm actually looking forward to starting again, even tho I might be the only one.

I got my schedule yesterday as well, and my classes for next year look pretty decent - apart from having to do drama after school, which means staying at school until around half past 4... 

Nonetheless it'll probably be ok, and if not I'll let the office know and they'll hopefully swop me around. Drama would be fun though.

I'm also doing maths, English communications (might swop to literature to challenge myself a bit more), art design and psychology. 

This term will be great :-)

Ice skating

Went ice skating with the family the other day, but since Paul has started work again he couldn't make it. It was brad's first time skating, and considering that, he managed to learn pretty fast.

Sophie hasn't been ice skating for 3 years, and wasn't as good as she had expected, so I taught her and held her hand. At the end she was really good and didn't need any help at all☺

Brad didn't want help and especially not in the form of me holding his hand. As he said, it is too "embarrassing" since we're not the same gender. Ali laughed so much at that, and tried to convince him that people won't think we're together, since there's a good 8 years age difference. He wouldn't even hold Sophie's hand😁😁

I had a blast, and it was wonderful to cool down for a few hours, knowing it was 43 degrees outside ;-) 

Engelsk

Jeg skrev én post på engelsk fordi jeg, lige siden jeg begyndte på min blog, har tænkt at det ville være lettere, siden jeg konstant tænker på engelsk. Men de sidste par uger har jeg været exposed to det danske sprog mere end normalt, så det virker mere logisk for mig at skrive på dansk.
Jeg kan mærke på mit engelske at jeg har talt for meget dansk, fordi jeg jo har besøgt og set mine danske veninder.
Det kan være der kommer flere posts på engelsk, og hvis ikke - bare rolig jeg er stadig flydende på engelsk

Jul i Adelaide

Jul I Australian er meget anderledes end hvad jeg er vandt til. Det hele foregår i +35 grader, juleaften spiste vi pizza fordi Ali ikke kunne overskue at lave mere mad - for alt foregår d. 25, som hun havde forberedt sig til.

Om morgenen åbnede vi gaver foran juletræet, senere på dagen tog vi hjem til Alison's familie hvor vi spiste julefrokost og åbnede flere gaver. Familien er virkelig rar, og jeg kommer godt ud af det med alle.

Om aftenen kom Paul's familie over, og vi spiste mere julemad. Hele dagen er stort set centreret om at spise, det er helt ekstremt. Australiere elsker virkeligt deres mad.

Da gæsterne tog hjem gik jeg en lille tur, og så var det endeligt tid til at sove. Var så udmatted, men havde haft en helt fantastisk dag :-)

Juletræet, med nogle af det danske julepynt min mor sendte over, som Ali forresten syntes var virklig flot især for det er håndlavet. 

Julemorgen skynder man sig hen til træet, og ingen tænker over hvad man har på. Så jeg hoppede bare i mine slippers og en kryllet jumper. 

Familien om morgenen, børnene de holder ders gaver og Ali som holder Ebony

Lidt sløret billede, som skulle forestille mig der holder min 'kusine' Ava, som er halvandet år gammel. Hun er den sødeste lille pige, og jeg er så glad for endelig at møde hende, for Sophie har fortalt så mange søde ting om hende. Hun elsker Ava.

Sophie der åbnede nisserne, og jeg prøvede at forklare hvad en nisse er. Alison kigger på Brad's nisser.
