So yesterday I graduated from the school I've been in for the past 10 years. Wow. It feels weird to think about that, and I'm guessing I won't really get it until I start going daily to my new school in Autumn. ^^;

I think I got pretty good grades, so hopefully I get to the art course/classes/thing in my new school I had entrance exams for. (You get points from your diploma's average/mean value, and from the art pieces you did in your entrance exam. 10 points is the max for both, which combined makes for the max of 20 points.)

Don't get confused about my age nor what school I'm going to next, since our school system is very different from most of yours. There are translations for our schools/grades, but I'd rather not always use them, because I don't feel the translations to be fit with what they actually are. (And you can use multiple words in English to translate them into, so yeah, it's a bit more complicated than just having one other word for it.)

I won't go into too much detail about our school system right now, but I might do a chapter about it later on. ^^

Also, just a side note, but I got the stipend/grant for English that I hoped for! Thanks to my art teacher's slip-up, I already suspected that I would get it. I was still super nervous, and it was hard to try not to keep my hopes up in the past week. (Because I know all too well how it feels like to have your hopes up, not get the thing, and sink yourself to the rock bottom.)

I also got a card from a friend I met just this year, and even though the card doesn't look like much, the note she wrote me almost made me cry. Aahhhhh I'm sorry I'm just rambling random stuff, this is all just kind of weird for me and just a bit sad and so many things are going to change for me in the next six months or so!

Anyways, here are some pictures! Hopefully you won't mind that my face is censored, but unfortunately I don't feel too comfortable with me sharing pictures of my face here.
