My first week at school

Bonjour

  Today is Saturday ("Samedi" in french) and I have finished my first week at school.

The french school I am going to is  huge, there are about 2 000 students that go there and one of my classes is in the roon 380 so there are alot of rooms. The only class which I can understand or get any work done in is English and a little bit of Math as well. The kids in my class are all friendly and one is Canadian named Alejandero and can speak both french and English so he helps me out a bit. School can start as early as 8:00 and can end as late as 5:00 yet is still only thirty two and a half hours just two and a half more than in NZ. 

I will upload a scanned picture of my timetable ASAP but right now im having problems using this MAC and I am used to using Windows and to make it even more difficult I have to type with a French "AZERTY" keyboard and I prefere using the English "QWERTY" keyboard but that will all change when my laptop arrives in the post. 

Any way today (saturday) we went to watch a rugby match between Racing Metro (pronounced "rasee meetro") and another team whose name I cannot remember, Racing Metro won 23-22 and only got ahead in the last 10 minutes so it was a very close match.

We are watching more rugby right now on TV, it is wales vs france. My uncle is wanting wales to win so the can win the grand slam (winning all the matches)because they are the only ones who have won all of the matches so far so they are than only ones left who can get the grand slam. my cousin is wanting france to win by more than 20 points so that they still have a chance to get to the finals, and i'm not really cheering for anybody.

I am just about to head off to bed so seeya
