24.10.2011 Collecting Clothes
On 24th of October we had all the clothes needed for the orphans from Balvan Village. I had a lot of fun with my classmates while collecting the clothes, we packed them into sacks. Even we put on some clothes. Like the previous year I enjoyed it so much. I’m so happy that I could  help these children and I’m so proud with the task we do.   



20.10.2011 Sophisticated Art Club

On 20th of October it was our first Decoration Club. We had very interesting task to do. We had to paint a CD disk with dye. As a basis there was a mucilage which we had to smear it. After that when we put the dye on disk it was spilling very nice and the disk became very beautiful (There are pictures of the disks I've made). This art was new for me but I like it (I like everything related to the art). I can’t wait for the next Decoration Class.  








17.10.2011 Second Training
On 17th of October it was our second meeting of the GLOW association. It was related with the way of presenting a presentation and how it could be effective and interesting to the other. This meeting was not that interesting, but I liked the topic, because everyone (especially the students) should receive this knowledge about the presentations. Also the meeting took the attention of everyone and was kind of fun. It was not interesting like the first meeting but I liked it and I enjoyed the way it was presented. I hope the next our meeting will be better.  



10.10. 2011 Charity meeting 

On 10th October we had organizational meeting about the school Charity, the decoration club. We decided when our future meetings are going to be.
We also planned one charity campaign about collecting clothes for orphans from Balvan. I really enjoy collecting clothes because the campaign helps many children. Also we have a lot of fun while collecting the clothes. 


6.10.2011 Training
On the 6th of October a new Training club was established it is called GLOW association. It is related to the leadership, people’s relations. I thought it would be such a boring meeting but actually it was not and I was surprised by this club. The first Training meeting was to join us to the club and there were some interesting games about us. It started with presentation about – what could be the impact of someone’s behavior upon the other people. It was interesting, despite the fact that there were presented things I’ve already knew. After the presentation there was a game in which we were divided into some groups in which we’ve presented some situations related with the presentation. My group’s situation was about 3 girls. One of them was asking questions, the other one was trying to talk to the first, but the third one (Me) was interrupting the other. The idea was to present how unpleasant is when somebody is interrupting you and how stupid it looks. I had a lot of fun while doing this game. After that we had another game. It was childish and I felt like I’m in Children Garden while doing this exercise, but anyway it was so fun and I liked it so much. There were two circles in two different halls. We were 30 people and we had to stay in one of the two circles. In the other circle there were numbers. We had to go from our circle to the other one taking a step to only one number. Every next person who was going to the circle, filled with numbers, had to take a step on the following numbers and this lasts until we did it making no mistakes (talking and taking a step on wrong number was a mistake :D) We have finished the game only for 7/8 minutes out of 15 and I am so proud with the result. Because we were 30 people and we worked as a team (despite the fact we did some mistakes and we had to start the game from the beginning). I liked the Organization and I am sure that everybody does. I’ll be there for every meeting.    














Decorative Club 


These are some of the explanations which my teacher gave me about the shadows
On 5th of october
I had an Art class too and I’ve spent 5 hours drawing some simple shapes. I am amazed how difficult drawing is. But also I am amazed by the result at the end of my classes I was drawing those shapes free and without facing difficulties. My Art teacher helped me to make a poster for the “Slavi Show”, which we will visit at the end of the November. It became so beautiful.  


















 4.10.2011 First CAS meeting for the new school year
On 4th of October was the first meeting for the new school year. Also this CAS meeting was organizational meeting and we have planed our Planning Page for the Third term of our IB educationL. This is the year I am graduating and now I’m feeling not very good, looking at this fact. But up to now I’m not depressed maybe because it is not the end of the year. I know that it would be the time for the “Great Depression”. The planning page which we prepared is stated below:

24.06.2011 Mid-Summer Day (Edited)
 
On 24th of June it was a Mid-Summer Day- a traditional celebration of our school. Me and my classmates organized an event in which all of the students, teachers, and other school team were invited. There was a show in which some of my classmates took part. Also I took part in one of the songs prepared. There were so jokes and other things which brought a lot of fun in the school. The saddest thing was that this term ended and it was summer vacation, which means- whole summer away from my classmates. All the other things made me feel so excited. 




 




 16.06.2011 Making Oscariuses



Making Oscariuses.

A female Oscarius
  On 21st of June my classmates and I did traditional awards for the Mid-summer day (a traditional holyday of our school). We called the awards “Oscariuses”. The idea was very interesting and I was amazed by the result gathered at the end. We made the “Oscariuses” like from bottles and textile and at the end they became like female and male dolls. The female “Oscarius” can be seen on the picture applied.

15.06.2011 Yoga Lesson


I hadn’t go to yoga for a long, long time ago and today I went to a yoga class. I needed one, because I am so tired in the last several weeks and I need to relax somehow and to forget about everything, even for an hour or two. We’ve practiced new things and at the end of the class I was feeling very well. I think that I should go to yoga more often, because it really gives me some time to relax and think about nothing else but myself, soul and body. The problem is that I have not enough time for this. 

9.06.2011 Making certificates for the "mid-summer concert"

On 9.06 my classmates and I made certificates for our mid-summer concert, which is a traditional concert, which took part on our school celebration. Some of the certificates are called “She is the man”, or “Stone face lady”, etc. They will be given to some of the teachers and students in our school. It will be so funny. I cannot wait to see the reactions.

10.06.2011 Riding Bike


On 10th of June I had my second bike-training. As I said in one of my previous publications- I should keep fit. And I went and did it again. This time the weather was awful- it was so hot and I was getting tired very fast. Anyway it was again so funny, because one of my classmates was with me and I had someone to talk to while I was riding (maybe this is one of the reasons why I was getting tired so fast). This time we went to a lot of wonderful places, because my friend knew the region, and she showed me so much places, where I could go when I want to relax or study. I can not believe how beautiful may the environment be! I am amazed!!!

Riding Bike 24.05

Today the day was so boring and I’ve decided to ride a bike. This is a perfect training for me, because when I am studying I do not keep fit and I am not feeling good. It was so funny for me. I was riding alone and I rode wherever I wanted. I had the opportunity saw a lot of different and beautiful places. The worst part came when I land in a strange place and I didn’t know how to go back home. Anyway it was interesting to test my orientation, when there were not people around me. However I wasn’t scared and I didn’t go in panic (which is strange for me) and I made a lot of pictures of the environment, which is wonderful in this season. After 3 hours riding in the “nothing” I was home and I told everyone about my little, strange trip.

2 days Trip to Gabrovo and "Etar"

Picture from the Masquerede
On 21st of May at 7 in the morning I went to a trip to Gabrovo. I hadn’t been there before. On the train (as always) I had a lot of fun with my classmates. We sang and say jokes to each other. It was so funny. After we went to the town, we went to see some of the sights of the town, but they were not the most interesting thing in the on the day. There was so funny because at the evening at the same day there would be a masquerade. All the people on the streets were wearing different funny and horrified costumes. We went to our hotel and started preparation for the forthcoming masquerade. After the time came we went and walked to the masquerade. There were different people with different costumes, which were showing different tricks. Some of them were showing moments of the Bulgarian history, others were just showing funny performances, there were also dancers. It was funny at all.

On the next day we went to the Etar. This is an important Bulgarian place next to Gabrovo, with old-fashion houses and souvenirs expressing the Bulgarian Revival period (Renaissance). It was fantastic to see all those things from this period. I was surprised by some of the souvenirs which were hand-made, but very beautiful.
