Le deuxième semestre de l’année terminale

Aux États-Unis, l’année scolaire comprit deux semestres, et on passe le première semestre de l’année terminale en faisant les demandes aux universités. Pour la majorité d’étudiants, les notes du premier semestre sont la dernière chose qu’une université voit avant qu’elle choisisse quels étudiants de laisser entrer. Donc, par la fin de janvier, les élèves sont bien moins stressés parce qu’ils ont fini une énorme tâche—les demandes—et aussi parce que leurs notes sont peut-être un peu moins important. Par conséquent, quelques élèves veulent se reposer un peu trop et arrêter de travailler si dur dans leurs classes. Mais il faut qu’ils continuent à donner beaucoup d’effort à leurs devoirs et le travail scolaire parce que les universités peuvent changer leurs avis et dire qu’une élève ne peut pas y assister si ses notes sont devenues pires. Enfin, il y a une plus chose qui empêche la repose de quelques élèves: la plupart des universités ne disent pas aux élèves leurs décisions jusqu'à avril. Alors élèves doivent attendre et attendre et attendre et attendre pour découvrir où ils iront cette automne! Moi, j’ai de la chance et une université m’a déjà accepté donc je peux me mettre à l’aise.

À bientôt!

Suzannah

Noel et Obama!

Salut Mes Amis!

Je suis (finalement) fini avec tous mes applications d’université. Maintenant ma vie est un peu plus calme. J’ai passé une bonne vacance pendant le début de Janvier. Je suis allée au Canada pour visiter mes grands parents et mes cousins. Ma grand-mère est une très bonne cuisinière et j’aime bien être chez elle. J’étais vraiment heureux d’avoir la neige quand j’étais en Canada. Il ne neige pas beaucoup en Washington DC et ça c’est triste. Pour Noel, j’ai reçu un nouveau objectif pour mon camera. C’est un objectif à 180 degrés ou un objectif "fish-eye" et j'aime bien l'effet qu'il a sur les photos.

Après les vacances j’ai retourné d’une ville pleine d’excitation. L’investiture d’Obama était en quelques semaines et tous les gens de DC étaient en train de préparer. Il y était beaucoup des fêtes et attirail pour Obama et Biden aussi.

Le jour d’investiture j’ai travaillé pour une agence de presse que couvre la cérémonie. J’ai du réveiller à quatre heure du matin et même si c’étais trop tôt pour moi, il y était déjà plus d’un mille gens en la queue pour sécurité. Le jour c’étais très intéressant et amusant pour moi. J’ai un bon vue du défilé et la cérémonie mais il faisait très très très froid.

La neige en Canada! ............... Mon frere aime jouer avec mon nouveau objectif...

Bisous!

Nell
