Our Underwear (Oops, I mean shorts!!)

Over the last few months a few of my friends and I worked on a short part from one of Shakespeare's plays, Twelfth Night. We choose the scene where Sir Toby and Fabien try to convince Viola/Cesario that Sir Andrew is a great fighter and try to convince Sir Andrew that Cesario is also. It is was funny.

Lily played Viola (A girl dressed as a boy)
Ma'ayan played Fabien - She dressed up as a Biker Dudess
I played Sir Toby - I was a Hippie!

Me trying to convince Kelly (Sir Andrew) that Viola was a horrible fighter.

Ma'ayan and I laughing at Lili.

Kelly played Sir Andrew - She was a Punk!

The Sword fight at the end of the scene was funny.

Shakespeare Shorts

On the evening of the 26th it was Shakespeare Shorts. Kids from any year group could decide if they wanted to put together a small sketch of about 5 minutes. It was a great evening, but as I'd already seen all of the sketches 2 times (in the rehearsals) it was a bit repetitive. It was held in the Marque that was set up on the grounds of our school. It started pretty early, so the lighting was almost all natural. 

Shakespeare's Knickers!

Bloemen Parade

On Saturday the 24th we joined some of our friends and went to Noordwijk to see a flower parade. The floats were all really pretty. There were also loads of cars that had flowers on them.

Exams!!

To the tune of 'It's the most wonderful time of the year'

'It's the most horrible time, of the year.

All the teachers are bossy,

The test papers glossy,

Oh my, oh dear!

It's the most horrible time, when exams are here!!'

So far, they haven't been too bad. Today I have a DT (Design Technology) exam and a music exam.

Wish me luck!!!

You are rocking!

Above the trees, you may be able to see a small blue speck. That is Ashlynn!

After we had all climbed the first rock two times we went to another place. It was much higher up, but we didn't climb that much further. It was really fun! The rocks were both so different, but I found that they were both the same difficulty. I hope that we will be able to go real rock climbing again soon. 

Let's Rock!

While we were in Ronda we found out that our trip to Morocco, which was scheduled on Friday, had to be changed to Thursday. This came as a little problem, Daddy was going to take Ashlynn and I to go rock climbing on Thursday. He managed to change the date, so after having around 6 hours of sleep (we had the long boat ride the night before), we got up to go rock climbing on real rocks.

We met our instructor. She was really funny. We followed her up some off road tracks and then walked to the rock that we would be climbing. It was protected from the wind, which was very good. I started with the instructor helping me, telling me where to go. It was really fun!
