My official day at school

I'm happy that I have this opportunity to learn the dutch language. I met my classmates came out from other countries like Romania, Poland, Africa, Czech Republic, India and China. I felt out of place at first  because I'm the only one new in the class. Some four months, six months and others were almost ready to do the exam. I can speak dutch, but just a little bit. My teacher Sophie was so good she let me feel at home. She gave me some books that I could read and try to answer. I'm at peace and calm now that I started my schooling at last.

Contract

My first day at Friesland college was just introducing myself getting to know about the school and my classmates. They put me first in Inburgering group the A2 program of dutch language. Right after class, the teacher told me that they will transfer me in Staatexamen group the B1 program it's a higher level people who's taking up are professionals and educated. I'm a bit nervous that I have to introduce myself again in dutch. The second day, it was the last day and we had Christmas Party classes will resume in January. I felt strange that I haven't received the result of my toets (test) that I did. The teacher told me about it, but not in details.

I got letter from the Gemeente (city hall) here in Drachten. The city in charge gave me the result of my test and I was happy about the outcome. Jan said that not a lot of people gotten the result like mine. I was flattered of course, but I'm not so in believing myself. I still have to eat a lot of rice and burning my eyebrows to study. He wants me to read the contract and Bert too it was about my schooling. Supposed to be if  I will pay for myself, it will cost 3,000 to 4,000euro, but the Gemeente is willing to shoulder the entire expenses. All I  have to do is to attend classes I chose at night twice a week. It stated also that there will be consequence they will charge me 70% of all costs  if  I'm not consistent, no valid reason and when I suddenly stop or make problems.

Some people don't want to go to school immediately they waited until five years, but I don't want to wait that long. I have to do it anyway it is opportunity and it's my own benefit. I signed the contract it will last until July 2011 and it depends on how fast I'm ready for my examination.I'm looking forward to my first and official day at school.
