2 - Winter, Holidays and a Probable Yes.

I'm sorry that I haven't gotten back to you for... a loooong time, but I've been busy toughing the last days of school before the winter holidays! Woot! And, to make it better, Winter just blew in: around 40cm of snow here since I last wrote and it's now near -30C (-20F) outside! The kilometre-wide river in front of my house is now COMPLETELY frozen and I think I'll be skating before Christmas since it's basically going below -20C until then.

Oh, and by the way, I love Winter.

But I digress.

I went to go and see my PRINCIPAL (!!!) two weeks ago to talk to him about the program and told him about all the things that my exchange would imply. I gave him the document and he looked as if he though it was great, but he said that it would have to be discussed with the other members of administration to rule out things such as tuition (I go to a private school), grades and other such things. But I've talked to most of the other main members and they are all supportive of my endeavour, so I think that this equates a most probable yes.

:D <- that's my face right now.

So now I'm on hold. I really can't do anything until I get a definite answer from my school in January (around the 5-10th). So I'm just going to kick back, lace on my skates, skis and moccasin-boots (they look like moccasins), zip up my down-goose coat and enjoy my holidays!

HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO MY FANTASTIC READERS!

I'll update weekly on Fridays unless something big happens, in which case I'll tell you right away.

PS.: If you do read this, please comment. I'd like to know that my blog is being read!

Cheers,

-Ben, who is Winter-obsessed.
