It's been a long time since I wrote a post here, anyways, I have a lot to talk about!
First of all, I can't believe it's already October! It's been almost a month and a half since I arrived here, and it feels like the time is going so fast! Yesterday it was October 3rd. For the ones who don't know, October 3rd it's mentioned in Mean girls. And, above all, I am in the High School where this movie was based on!
Another thing that I've realised is how much money is here in this school. I mean, girls with Louis Vuitton day planners or herve chapelier bags is not normal for me... Plus the senior parking lot is full of BMW's and Jeeps. They say that New Trier is the school for white people. Yes, since I started school, I've only seen one african boy and one african girl, out of 3000 people in the school. I have to say that New Trier is located in one of the most affluent and rich suburbs in the famed North Shore of Chicago.
Another thing! Today I am going to Six Flags with my host sister and some friends! I am so exciiiiiiiiited, I love roller-coasters!
Going back to school, I am pretty happy with all my classes, although philosophy and literature in english are not easy!
Cross Country season is going to end soon and I am not happy with it, I love running and it's so much fun! :(
*Halloween is so close!*
Here I have some quotes about New Trier that you may like:
A place where you won't find too many black people.
George: Hey Paul, do you ever see any black people here at New Trier?
Paul: Nope.
Where more than half of the students smoke pot, sell pot, or grow pot.
Where the grades are high, but the kids are higher.
