T.I.S Summer school, 2011

Day 1, 20/6/11

My first impression was that it would be like all the other years, but somehow it's quite different. It's seems like there is more work this year, and a lot less games. I did find music class quite fun, as we learnt how to make proper drum beats on garageband. I was not too keen on going to summer school in the first place, and optimism has not arisen. I don't think that this is worth the time of the next three weeks, and frankly I'm supposed to have graduated from this school anyway. Summer school has lost it's thrill on it's 5th time. (Grades 2,5,6,7 and now 8).

Day 2, 21/6/11

Today we started this dairy thing that I'm currently writing in. At least we got to go swimming today. I'm a swimmer at heart, but no one would race/swim laps with me... Sad face. Art was sort of a face lifter, as we made these little Japanese drum on a stick things (I actually don't know what it's called.)

Day 3, 22/6/11

We went ice skating, and I can say the basic propulsion technique makes no sense wat-soever. I basically involves putting the brakes on, and pushing. I could not push and this does not seem to make much sense at all. I have gone ice skating 3 times, and every time it just becomes more confusing and harder to understand. It's like trying to solve a math question where the numbers keep changing... Some people were pretty brave (Watch attached video) and ended up hurting themselves. Some people (like me) just stuck to the walls. The only plus side is that it's nice and cold... and we got ice cream :) media type="file" key="IMG_0830.MOV" width="300" height="300"

Day 4 23/6/11

I have to say, as usual, schedule planning is kind of lazy. The Thursday schedule is exactly the same as the Monday schedule. It gives it a lack of variety that is not very interesting.

Day 5 24/6/11

Well, one week down, 2 to go. I'm pretty bored, as all my friends do is play four square (a lame version of handball) and some game in the pool which reminds me of the single bomb assault mode in //Halo Reach//, (a mode which almost nobody plays).
