SPIRIT-WEEK #1 (CLASS-COLOR)

Dansk: Spirit-week er ugen inden Homecoming hvor alle elever på skolen klæder sig i tøj for et specielt tema hver dag. Det er helt vild at fornemme hvor meget school-spirit her er (det er næsten som på film!) Min første dag af spirit-week er gået, og det har været en super fed oplevelse. Temaet for idag var: "Class-color-day" Hvilket vil sige at hver årgang fik tildelt en farve, og alle skulle så have den farve på. Min årgang (juniors) fik tildelt rød, så jeg gik hele dagen og lignede Rødhætte, men det var okay, for det gjorde alle de andre også, haha. Det var virkelig sjovt at se hvordan det ændre folks væremåde når de pludselig er udklædte i skole. Imorgen er "Farmersday" (fordi vores skole ligger på landet), og jeg glæder mig helt sindssygt! Kys herfra.

English: Spirit-week is the week before Homecoming where everyone at the school dresses up in clothes for a specific theme every day during the week. It is so crazy how much school-spirit here is (it is almost as you see in the movies!). My first day of spirit-week has ended, and it have been a wild and funny experience. Our theme today was "Class-color-day" That means all freshmens had to wear one color, all sophomores got a color and so did Juniors and Seniors. All juniors (which is what I am) got red, so we all walk around looking like little red riding hoods all day, but it didn't mean anything because everyone did, haha. It was so funny to see how people changed when they suddenly was all dressed up funny. Tomorrow is "farmers day" (because my school is in the middle of a bunch of fields and other country-stuff), and I am SO excited! Kisses from here.
