How come everything that's fun goes by so quickly? Well people always say that is a good sign, but I just wished it took longer! It really is amazing at Reeds, now that I actually start to make friends here. They all just appear to be very nice, and open for new friendships. Also, getting to know the school a bit better is nice too, (okay lets just forget the fact that I came in late today with film studies, thinking of an excuse, than finally went for saying the truth: "Sorry sir, I was lost," realizing it seriously sounded like the worst excuse ever. Awkward. )
Reeds just keeps getting better by the day, but the differences between the RLW and Reeds appear to become greater and greater too. To be honest, Reeds has more in common with Zweinstein than my Dutch school. In addition, all those teachers with that whole "look-at-me-I'm-so-cool, that's-why-I'm-wearing-a-harry-potter-toga-to-the-assemblies" attitude isn't helping either. Come on, togas? Seriously?
On the other hand, the way people treat each other here is very different too. Of course they have their daily gossips, but they have much more respect for one another. In their weekly assemblies, the students get lots of rewards and applause for academic and sport results. Also the more you're involved with the school, the higher status you have. (And no, not a status as a geek, what would probably be the case at the RLW..)
Sport is taken very serious at Reeds too. Yesterday I played with the 2nd hockey team (out of three), we had a match against this other school. We luckily won 2-0, and I've also got "promoted" to the first team, so I guess that's good! I had another hockey training with the first team today, which was a so called "intensive training". Running around the field basically the whole practise. How lovely..
Reeds really has been good so far, and everyday is just getting more fun!
