Possibly?

I think I made friends :)

Well. A friend. But a friend is a friend, no matter how small the number.

Today started off with me being very irritated, and ended with me being stuck in the rain. Oh, cruel fate. I walked into French class about five minutes late because I didn't have a schedule. Let's backtrack to last week, when two girls in my class, Pauline and Kelly went and asked him if I could have a school agenda.

P & K: Where's Alyce's agenda so she knows what classes to go to?

HDMSTR: She doesn't need one, we're picking out her official schedule next week and then she'll get one.

P & K: Oh. Okay. (leave office) That's dumb.

Now, on Friday everyone wrote down in their Journal de Classe when they'd have class. I didn't because I didn't have a journal de classe, and because the headmaster said we'd figure out my schedule on Monday.

Now it's Monday. I go to school and find the headmaster.

Me: Hey, I need a schedule.

HDMSTR: Oh, we haven't got them yet. Go find someone in your class and ask them for help.

Me: (looks around) Yeah, I'm not seeing anyone. Where do I go?

HDMSTR: They all wrote the schedule down in their books on Friday. Why didn't you?

Me: I don't have a journal de classe.

HDMSTR: You don't? That's very odd.

Me: . . .

HDMSTR: Well, just go look through the school and find them. - (Our school is five stories high. Yeah. **** no.)

He ends up taking me upstairs to the first floor and points to room 100.

HDMSTR: Well, that's not them.

Me: (inwardly) Ya think?! (outwardly) So, what do I do?

HDMSTR: Just go from class to class and try and find them.

So, eventually I end up in French class, and was greeted with "How are you?" "Lost." I spent that entire class period translating "What class is next" ("Quelle classe à prochain", in case you were wondering.) and then asked Sophie, to which she rambled for a bit, but I caught "no class" and so I went downstairs with them and we sat for two hours, talking, reading and I helped them with their English homework.

This morning was frustrating. But, Sophie let me copy her schedule and I figured out where to go and when to be there, which was nice. (I get out on Wednesday two hours early, and Wednesday is only a half day, so this is very exciting.)

Now. I am tired. Going to watch an episode of Arrested Development and then SLEEP! I'll probably update this next between Wednesday - Sunday. What a great timeline.

Annyong,

Alyce
