Mine karaktermål er C/D i alle mine tre fag. Jeg fik B i World Development, D i Sociology, og desværre et U i Business Studies. Altså skal jeg til reeksamen i Business Studies på tirsdag i håb om at få et bedre resultat, hvilket jeg forhåbentlig vil. Men alt i alt er jeg meget tilfredse med mine karakterer, da det var en førstegangs oplevelse, og kun vil forbedre mine point til eksamener til sommer, da jeg nu ved hvordan, hvor meget og hvor længe jeg skal repetere op til eksamener.
I går tilbragte jeg dagen i Brighton sammen med et par af de andre udvekslingselever, herunder Eleonora (Italien), som er en ny udvekslingsstudent på skolen. Hun ville meget gerne se og opleve Brighton, så vi gik først igennem The Lanes hen mod kysten, ud til Brighton Pier og dens spillearkader, og så tilbage til Churchill Square. Før vi gik op til shopping centreret, valgte vi dog først at få noget frokost i JB’s American Diner - en ultra amerikansk restaurant ikke så langt fra kysten i Brighton. Ingen af os havde været der før, men vi havde tit gået forbi den. Restauranten ser ikke særlig amerikansk ud, når man står udenfor i det blæsende vejr, men lige så snart man træder foden indenfor for man straks følelsen af at være i en ægte amerikansk diner i selveste Amerika.
Efter frokost gik vi op til shopping centreret og tilbragte noget tid der, inden vi tog bussen tilbage til Tunbridge Wells. Lange dage udendørs gør mig altid udmattet og jeg falder hver gang i søvn i bussen på vej hjem.
// The
first school week after the New Years is now over, and thus I got my results
from my mock exams back. I had mock exams in Business Studies, Sociology and
World Development, which are my three subjects. Every student gets a target
grade before the exams that is a certain grade the student will have to achieve.
If you get a grade less than two grades under your target grade, you have to go
to a resit, and if you fail that, you have to talk with your teacher.
My target grades are C/D in all my three subjects. I got a B in World Development, a D in Sociology, and unfortunately a U in Business Studies. So therefore I have to retake my Business Studies exam on Tuesday in hope for a better grade, which I hopefully will get. But all in all I am very pleased with my results, since it is a first-time experience, and only will improve my marks in the exams in summer, since I now know how much, how long and how I have to revise for my exams.

Yesterday I
spent the day in Brighton with a few of the other exchange students, including
Eleonora (Italy), who is a new exchange student in Beacon. She wanted to see
and experience Brighton, so we first walk through The Lanes towards the sea,
and then we went on Brighton Pier and played on its slot machines, and then
back to Churchill Square. Though before we went to the shopping centre, we
decided to have some lunch in JB’s American Diner – an ultra-American restaurant
not that far away from the coast in Brighton. None of us had been there before,
but we had often walked past it. It doesn’t look that American when you stand
outside in the wind, but as soon as you step your foot inside the restaurant,
you immediately get the feeling of being in a true American diner in America.
After lunch we walk to the shopping centre and spent some time there, before we headed back to Tunbridge Wells with the bus. I always get exhausted after a long day out, so on our way home in the bus I always fall asleep.
