BYE BYE SECONDARY SCHOOL-by Blanca Bonmatí

Bye bye secondary school:

Hi! Or maybe I should say goodbye? This post is the last post I’m going to publish here, so I’m going to use that goodbye opportunity as a goodbye to secondary as well.

I’m still remembering my first day at secondary, everything was new:  new teachers, new timetable, and the biggest change for us (the girls) NEW UNIFORM after 9 years we substituted our old pinafore dress for news skirts-belts.

The first course went by very quickly and without realizing we were beginning a new course, a course marked by substitutes and the first experience with exchanges. Furthermore we learned to play the flute and we could give our first concerts.

When it seemed that everything was becoming more stable we came across the third course. Again new teachers, new timetables.... in addition to a new corridor, which means more responsibilities at the same time. We had more subjects but, as a result, we had more innovation: excursions like English cinema where we had our first underground school experience.

Finally we came to the last course where we proposed ourselves to do everything that we could do. When Christmas was  coming the famous ‘’Auto’’ (Jesus- Maria tradition) list of characters was full, however Maite and Jose Maria tried to give everyone a character. A couple months after we had the ‘’Convivencias ‘’ there we lived an amazing class experience that I would love to repeat (football match, cooking time with ‘’Uncle Aure’’, the first night together etc.).Meanwhile, the weeks were passing we had some Canada and USA visitors (We really miss you).After that, we only thought about our coming prom trip, which I told you about in my last post (thank you Beatriz, Manuel, Aurelio and Maite). When we came back from Easter, we had the spring festival where, after many rehearsal hours, we dance altogether YMCA.

Now we are finishing that last secondary course with a lot of good and no pretty good memories nevertheless when we look back into these years I’m sure that we’ll smile.

Finally, I only want to say thank you and goodbye!!!
