Records and Reflections
Today I saw a metal bat coming closer to my face. I had T-ball today and when I was waiting to bat, the person in front of me started practising their swing. He suddenly moved just far enough so that when he swinged, the metal bat slammed on my jaw with its full power. Pain shot through my whole body but I held my tears back and got on. It hurt a lot and Mr Luis wanted me to see the nurse as it was starting to swell. But it was my turn and I wanted to bat. So I batted and amazingly with my jaw screaming in pain, I completed a home-run. Then I went to the nurse and put an ice pack on and got better.
Yesterday I felt irritated. For some reason, the high-school in front of my house was having some kind of festival. Unfortunately it played some real horrible music and it started early. So, instead of waking up when I wanted to, I woke up early with some stupid music. I was a bit angry but there was nothing I could do... So I got up and did my things.
Last week I learned about electric circuits. In science last week we were doing some work on electrical circuits and we actually got to experiment with them using light bulbs, motors, cells (battery) and cell holders. I LOVED IT!!! But i wasn't the only one. In my group Mateusz was just as pumped as I and we did some pretty cool stuff. And I am extremely happy because Ms Bae has told us that this Thursday we are going to work on that again, but without having to worry too much about diagrams.
Tomorrow I hope our class assembly wont be a disaster. Yes, the time has come for the B6CB Class (a.k.a the best class in the school, not Mr Sullivan's) Assembly. I think we started practising a bit late and our show is not perfect enough for us to present it. But we have to do it and we will just have to do our best...

Today I saw NOTHING. Just joking... Today I saw, huge signs near the bus and MRT stops. As you know, there is a Flora Expo (a place that presents many flowers and thing built with them) here in Taipei. For people to get interested, the government or the dudes from Flora Expo put signs of the Expo's symbol and how to get there, and there are many signs on the public transport station or stops. So I couldn't help but to notice it...
Yesterday I felt, excited as the bell rang. I got a new wardrobe on Saturday and it was delivered yesterday. I waited for it to come and when the bell rang I ran to the door to get it. There were two men that were going to build it and boxes that seemed very heavy. The workers only finished after one hour, and it looked amazing.
Last week I learned a bit about the Balinese culture. What I found really interesting was something I saw in the Holy Water Temple. There was a huge dirty pool and on the front wall there were dragon heads sculptures. Out of their mouth, water was gushing out and the Balinese people who were inside the pool, washed their hair with the water and prayed. Then they would put money or flowers on the dragon head. "Very different," I thought!
Tomorrow I hope the water of the swimming pool wont be freezing... As tomorrow is Tuesday, I have swimming, which I really really HATE! And since I'm in the middle group (which I shouldn't be because I'm not good enough) it makes me extremely TIRED! And to top this monstrous cake, the water is COLD!!!

Today I saw the beautiful Rice Terrace in Bali. I was having a tour of the main tourist spots in Bali, when suddenly we stopped at the Rice Terrace. It looked like huge rectangles of tall grass all stacked up together to make a mountain of green growing rice. I was fascinated and I was lucky to take a picture like one of the farmers, as one of them was going past and offered me his hat and other things.
Yesterday I felt relieved as I plunged into the hotel bed. The hours I spent in airports and the time i spent flying in the freezing airplanes, had drained all my energy out of me.When I finally got to Bali I took a taxi to my hotel and was happy to see how awesome it was. The only thing I didn't see were the rooms. But I was sure they were going to be just as nice as the lobby. And I was right. The room was super good and the bed seemed to make me sleep easily. After some time laying motionless on the bed, I got up and went out for dinner with my folks.
Last week I learned nothing as it was holidays and I spent most of my time doing other things. I played games, talked to friends, played soccer and watched TV. But I didnt really learn anything...
Tomorrow I hope I will sleep until late in the morning so I won't be tired during the day!!!:)
