Summer is here

I haven't been doing much lately, just going to school and enjoying the awesome weather! Today it is 27 degrees, and all this week it has been over 20. Everything is so much better with the sun! Everyone is so happy and everyone is out on the streets. I have recently changed classes at school, I changed from the Science classes to the Literature classes. I now have a lot more French, which is great! In about 2 and a half weeks it will be summer holidays, because I don't have to do the BAC (French Exams) I start summer holidays earlier. The first week of summer I will be going to Paris to go to Parc Asterix with my Rotary district, it will be the last time that all the exchange students are together. After that all the oldies (from all the countries that start school in September) will return back to their hometowns! It is going to be so sad saying goodbye to everyone! But at the same time it will be good to spend time with my French friends and then meet the new exchange students who will arrive in September. I have been doing a lot of exercise now that the weather is better, I try to do something each day (either run or swim). Yesterday I went bike riding with my next door neighbours, who have a son the same age as me! It was fun, then we went and played soccer against some of his friends in a park. I have been living in parks lately, just going to a park with friends after school and relaxing... It is the best feeling. I have had my first taste of French summer this week and I love it. It doesn't get dark until about 10 30 at night which is so awesome! Last night there was a free concert on in the city, so me and my friends went to it, it was hard to believe it was so late but still light. Time is France is going way too fast! It's been over 4 months now, my parents will be arriving in September, so soon! I have a lot to look forward to in the summer, including going to Italy with my host family for 2 weeks! I really love my host family, I feel so welcome here and everything is going really well!
