Okay, some of you who have seen my signature may have been wondering what "Russ" is, well first I have to explaing the school system here a little bit. We have ten years of primary school starting at 6 and ending the year we become 16. Then early in the spring the last year at primary school we have to decide what school to take next, here we have different ways to go and different subjects for each course. This is called vocational school I believe (I'm not sure what to translate it with) Mostly you finish here after three years, some places after two or four, depending on what you want to become. But there is one course that is very much like primary school as they build on what we learnt there and take it further, that's what I'm doing, mostly those who don't know what to become afterwards usually do this (I'm one of them) After three years at this school we graduate and becomes "Russ" The course I'm taking is the most common type, we are the red ones, we have green (farming schools) black (mechanics) red and white (health) and blue (hotels and stuff like that). Most of the year we look like everyone else only just a little bit more busy than the others. But then from 1st may till 17th may (Our national day) we all dress up in red clothes and do all sorts of crazy stuff, we drink much and makes the younger students all wet by showering them with our waterguns and waterballoons. Driving around in our huge red vans. Hope you learned something new and that you enjoyed it...
