School

It has been about 6 months since I last posted and I have a lot of things to talk about. Including my school.

A few weeks after my circumcision, I went up to 7th grade which means that I am now a junior high school student. The school I went to was the same school I went in elementary, but the junior high school students are at a different facility. Before we officially started school, we had a thing called WOW. I don't remember what it stands for but WOW was an occasion where the grade 7s have a whole week to know what the school was all about. We had a few tours of the school and we had a few games and competitions. We were also showed to our class. I saw old and new faces, I made new friends and it was a great time.

The first few days of school felt very long. We met our teachers and we studied a few subjects. It was the most boring week of my life. The next week though, was better. We studied more and we got along just fine. I made a few more friends and I had a great time. The more days went by, the faster the days felt. Until there were The Mid-term tests.

We called it UTS. UTS was a week full of tests. Each day we had 2 tests. The tests were from everything we learnt that mid-term. It was basically torture. Luckily, after the test, we had a holiday. But right after that holiday, we went to school again.

I was starting to get along really well with my new friends. But no one can be as good as a friend than my best friend from elementary. His name was Marvin. I miss him a lot but hey, you got to be thankful of what you have. The days went by even quicker. It felt like it was only two weeks until the next tests came by.

We called these ones UAS. it was much worse than UTS because the material for the tests was what we learnt from the WHOLE SEMESTER!!!! UAS stands for ujian akhir semester which mean the final semester test. It felt so long since it ended. I learnt a lot and sometimes I even felt like I would get a bad score. The good thing was after UAS, I saw my scores and they were great. I felt so relieved and after UAS, we had another holiday. I'm still having my holiday now but in two more days, I will got to school again and I just can't wait for another term of learning. Hooray!
