Yes! The last day of school and nothing else to mention about it, a soon as I woke up I took a shower and then packed my beddings and everything that belongs to me. I packed and sent everything out of my room, and then our R.A. came to check our rooms. Then I went to school empty handed, today we were going to play games and the principal showed us the directions and locations of where the games were. Mr. Dewey was another Math and Science teacher for 7th and 8th graders. He told us which homeroom would go for which game; we played only half of all the games and then the homerooms with the most points wins and gets prizes of candies.
Our homeroom was the only one that didn’t get any prize, but anyway it was lunchtime. After lunchtime everyone went back to the reception area and the principal told everyone to go to the auditorium. We sat in our homeroom groups and they were going to give out two hundred certificates, they name all of the subjects that you can have in middle school. I got four certificates and they were all growth awards, the subjects were Math, Technology, Bible, and Social Studies. I knew that my father would be proud that I got math for an award, because he had been teaching me math at the weekends. When the awards were over there was time left so the 6th and 7th graders went out while the 8th graders stayed, the 6th graders went to the reception area and the 7th graders went to the tennis court. We both played games and ate until school was over. Everyone in the dorm hurried the dorm to pack their bags and go to the bus, I had three bags and it was very difficult to carry. I carried all my bags to the bus and the bus took us to the bus station, Mr. Eric gave us our tickets when our bus arrived, it was going to take us to Ulsan. Then everyone that was going to Ulsan entered the bus and it was the last time that we were entering and riding that bus.
On Thursday the teachers were going to hand out the year books that included everything that happened in the year. When everyone got a year book those of us in middle school tried to get comments from anybody who wanted to sign our book, we did it until lunchtime. After we ate lunch we went to clean our lockers, but I have already cleaned mine earlier on so I played basketball, until it was time for the talent show that was in the activity room. Some performed, but two people quit (sad story for them). Most of them were songs and two of them were dances, then it was time for everyone to dance. Several people danced, especially the teachers. Then it was time to go back to our dorm, I went back to the dorm. I went with David in my dorm who is an 8th grader (he not the same one I met in ever land). We went to Y-sense where they sell things that you need for school and then to Kaldi where they sell drinks. David bought me a goodbye gift in Kaldi; it was a strawberry shake. We went back into the dorm and I went to play basketball when it stopped raining, I played one on one with Ben who was in 7th grade and the score was nine to ten, he won. Then we played two on two with William and Sang Hyun, two Koreans. We lost Ben and I, and then it was almost time for dinner. So I went back into the dorm and we ate dinner, after dinner we did deep clean! This is where we had to empty our room and clean it very well; the only thing that had to be left was of bed and our last clothes for tomorrow. It took me about ninety minutes to do that because I don’t have a roommate, then I had to wait for Mr. Eric who was the boys Residence Assistance or R.A (as we use to call him) had to come and check my room and check my damage deposit. I waited for thirty minutes for him. He checked my room for damages and there were some damages. I gave the damage deposit to our dorm mom, who is Mrs. Tiece, then it was time to have our last party in Adams dorm, we ate chicken and brownie and had some drinks. After the party we had to go to the Auditorium and watch a movie of the year in Adams dorm. It was so funny and it lasted for thirty minutes.
Then everyone went back to the dorm, but instead of going to bed we started signing yearbooks. It was just like we did in the beginning of school, so everyone signed everyone’s yearbooks including Mr. Ted, Mrs. Tiece, Miss Amy, and Mr. Eric. Then everyone went to bed.
Last week of School by Chinedu
June 7, 2008
Ah… yes, the last week of school. When most students; don’t have to do much except the 8th graders. The high school students had their exams. Well the first two days of school, we had our normal classes and watched movies, had snacks it was fun. In the dorm we had fun too, with no study hall except for 8th graders because of their exams. The important thing we did in the dorm; we had to do is to pack our belongings.
On Wednesday was our Middle School and Elementary School trip to Ever land. Ever land was near Seoul, so we took the school bus every grade in Middle School had their bus and I think also was the elementary. It was only grade 4 and 5 in our bus, off we went to Seoul, I started to sleep, and so when I get there I would not be tired (that was what my mum told me when we went to Disney land). Everyone was in groups of six and had a guardian. The principal bought our ticket from our money that we gave earlier. It was only a paper band for our hand. We entered Ever land and had to be back by two twenty, I had fun for four hours with my group, we went on two rides, one called the T-express and the Circling Hurricane, the T-express was a roller coaster and the Circling Hurricane was a ride that went up and down and around, then we ate lunch. We ate in Burger King and I ate burger and chips and drank Fanta. After my group left with out me, because I was still playing, so after I ate I went looking for them. But anyway it was almost two o’clock and I had to start heading for the bus, as I was going there I found a place were there were games, I had to be smart enough that my group must have been heading to the bus. I thought one person in my group might have gone there because he was good at games. But when I got there, they weren’t there, but I met David and William who were my classmates. They played games and I played too, but only one. After, I followed them into the candy shop and they bought lots of candy and we went out and waited outside until everyone came, I saw my group and they said they were sorry. Everyone went back into the bus and then we headed back to our school in Taejon. I was asleep because 6th graders were going on a picnic right after we came off the bus. We came off the bus and our teacher Mr. McDonnell who was a math and science teacher said that we were leaving by four forty five and we waited until that time. But he wasn’t there; we saw him and we left by five thirty. It took us one hour to reach where we were going by city bus. Every 6th grader left the bus and was heading to the place where the picnic was held. The place had a soccer field and a basketball street court and also places to exercise. First we ate then played all we wanted, we played Cops and Robbers and then Mr. McDonnell came and said that we had to be leaving in fifteen minutes, I looked at the time and we stayed only an hour. So we packed the left over food and threw away the trash. We headed to the bus stop and waited for the bus to come and when the bus came we entered and headed back to our school. Some day students left at some bus stops and some stayed until we reached our school. It was dark, and everyone went home or to Adam’s dorm.

It was a sunny afternoon and my family was ready to go to the Spring Festival. My dad came with a blue shirt on and took us (without the car) a soccer field, where the festival was. Then we went to a bigger soccer field where mostly everyone was, my brother kachi started crying and my parents told me to take him to the bouncing Titanic and Zoo. So I took him there and removed his shoes, first he was scared and then we came off. We put on our shoes and went to play soccer, it was much better for him. After there wasn’t anything to do, so I took Kachi again to the bouncing Zoo and this time he agreed to play and play and play. I was with him until my dad came with the twins and told me that Kachi and I had to go and eat dinner Kachi didn’t want to come, so I went to get food to eat. When I came back, my dad told me to say with my twin brothers, while he got his own food. Then stayed until my dad came. We both sat near the pushchair, then my mum and uncle Razac came and we ate together. When we finished we released the twins to get their energy back. So dad and I followed each on of them.
Then an announcement came that there was going to be a game. So we went up (the twins were in the pushchair) to the big soccer field and watch all the games. At that time Shawn and Kachi were out while Joel was in the pushchair, we ate popcorn and drank Pepsi. Then the awards came and uncle Razac won a prize! He was in the last game. When we saw the award and everything we went on uncle Razac’s car and he drove the whole of my family home to our house.

It was morning and we all woke up. After that we did what we usually always do (I hope you haven’t forgotten). Then we went across the bridge to Itaewon, down near the bank and parked in the parking lot. I noticed that we were going on a cruise. We got out of the car and went down on this medium steep step (I was carrying Joel). We went down and got our ticket in the lunch bar (I suppose), we were leaving by three forty five, and well we had a lot of time. So we let Joel and Shawn walk freely. While me and my dad followed each of them behind. The time came and my dad followed each one behind. The time came and we went outside (it was raining), with everyone who came with us at the same time. The boat had two floors; we went up and found a seat. When everyone was ready there was an announcement that we were going on a cruise for an hour and there is going to be a stop. So the boat started moving we saw different bridges and why they were built. We stopped and saw some more bridges. The boat turned back to the lunch bar, entered our car and went to eat dinner at our favorite restaurant. We crossed the bridge and entered Seoul. We headed for our hotel and did what we usually do.

It was morning and everyone woke up, we usually did what we do, except that everyone was packing. We were leaving the hotel today and everyone was packing was the same way we did has we left our apartment in Ulsan. When we finished packing, we all went to the reception room and gave the card to the service helper. They took the card and we went down, into our car (with the luggage that my dad already packed, while we were packing). My dad drove us to a church and we met one of my dads friend. He took us to the church and told us to have a seat. A nice man took our coats and hanged them carefully. As we sat, everyone started singing, the pastor preached, we did offering and then church was over. As we got into our car. We told everyone in Itaewon and Seoul goodbye, and then we headed for the gate of Seoul. Then we were on our way to our home in Ulsan
