School

The ONLY downside to the fabulous 3 weeks holiday in America was missing 3 weeks of school. I did take my books and did a bit of study but certainly not 4-5 hours daily like I would've in Germany. BUT never fear, I acheived "sehr gut" as my final result, which is the highest mark. Stoked. Only my listening comprehension was a bit poor, since we usually accidently reverted to English in America.

So now I'm into my fourth language course, B2. It's pretty neat, there's only 11 people, which makes a lovely change from 20 odd. The focus in B2 is vocab but apparently some of the grammar we've previously learnt is actually a tad different in the real world, sigh. We're also supposed to start using German-German dictionaries, instead of German-English. Tricky! But challenges are good and it's heaps of fun to surprise the German family with fancy words.
