Winter Wonderland

As of the last update, a lot of things happened. Another week past by and we're sorta realizing that our first term at RCN is about to be over.

Second year are running around to hand in the last things before the break, while first years are enjoying the last days of freedom, before classes really hit hard next term. I myself is already on vacation. I'm focusing on having as much fun as possible until Christmas, because I have the time now and not in a year.

A new EAC is up and running and we're three first years and a second year in it, working on the school's communication. Some got the responsibility for newsletters or website and my responsibility is to re-do the school's Facebook page. That should be fun!

We had Nordic-Studies again on Wednesday. It's something that's gonna run through the Spring about one session or workshop a week, and it is compulsory even for Nordic students, even though we're gonna help make a lot of the workshops.

Yesterday, I went to sing at a "cozy-Christmas evening" for the Haughland patients, so that was also a fun experience. Glad to keep up with the music.

Today is my roommate; Tiange's Birthday. She turns 21! We celebrated her a little at midnight, with some tea and homemade chips (while making I achieved to cut my fingers twice, so much that it's still bleeding...) but as other second year, she's really busy studying for SATs (test for universities in the u.s.) on Saturday, so we're gonna through her a party on Sunday night instead.

Today is also the last inter-house competition of the year; sports. I'll be competing for Sweden House in soccer, while others will play badminton. It should be a lot of fun!

Tomorrow is our big, fancy Christmas dinner and Christmas show and on Sunday we have a "Carol-singing" night and cafe with host families, teachers ect. and finally on Monday is the last House Meeting of the year, where advisers are invited as well, but more update on this will come later :)

Last, but not least, we got the first snow on the ground today. Us Nordics still debating whether it is just hail, laying on the ground, but one thing is for sure, the students that has never seen snow before are excited and throwing it at each other and it's a blast to see :)

Finally it's Christmas again!
