Anyways, after my delayed orientation I returned to school until everyone began to take their end of the year exams...Form 4 only takes finals while Form 3 and Form 5 take the PMR and SPM, respectively. Anyways, since Form 3 took their exams earlier than everyone that meant I had a two-week self proclaimed holiday. Then I returned to school, and now my class is done with their classes and now Form 5's are taking exams sooo everyone basically started holiday from Oct. 28 and so forth. Officially, school is over on November 16th, so our school gave us holidays although there are about four days we are supposed to be in school. It is alternated between forms and streams so not everyone goes at the same time.
School is a bit weird, well the timing is. We arrived in July which for them is the middle of the school year. Then we didn't start school until mid/late August because of problems with a certified letter and paperwork. Which mean that the rest of August and September would be study months...then October came around which meant more testing month. I hope school goes better in January, then the year starts anew. For one classes will be easier to follow, I will already know the kids in my form, and well I won't be the sad and lost exchange student who doesn't know their left from right.
Anyways, October has been a rather uneventful month. Besides the delayed orientation and marking the end of my school year in Malaysia nothing significantly WOW has happened. Here are a few highlights:
- Delayed Orientation
- School is over for the year
- Sari/Punjabi suit shopping
- Made Mexican food a lot...
- Cooked Mexican food with one of the AFS volunteers who was a past YES Alumni
- Spent time with my fellow exchange students (and I got to see a few of them after three months! The last time I had seen them was after the handing over ceremony in July...)
