my first fire alarm: survived! they did a fire alarm for practice at school and we all had leave the building, five minutes later we had to go in again... 

we've had maths and we were discussing square roots of prime numbers. it was quite easy and we had to do some exercises. the teacher asked for someone to do one of the exercises at the board, nobody wanted to do it, so i volunteered. i wrote everything down and she said it was right but then she wanted me to explain how i did it. i was a little panicking because i understand the terms but i hardly know how to use them... so i was standing there, stuttering, but fortunately she helped me out, then i sat down and the class started to applaud, i was so embarrassed! 

another funny thing in maths: she always asks us 'are you happy about that?' everyone just says yes, and then she says something like 'i really want to help you but you have to tell me if you don't understand what i've done!' nobody answers even though half of the class doesn't understand it. so today she gave us cards (red, orange, green) and we have to set the color... it worked! but i felt like being at primary school, you have to know that in the course are up to 17 year old people and when they are holding this cards in the air it looks funny :D

have a nice evening!!
