School Hunting!

As soon as we arrived to India, we already had a plan, find a school & get Savannah in. Although I didn't like that this was number one on the list of things to do. I was excited to finally make friends. We started looking for schools Friday and found one soon after. We visited the British International School which I though I liked but the curriculum was very difficult because everything was british based. So we proceeded on and went to the next school, Gateway. This school was bigger and looked more inviting. So we went in and talked to the principle. She was very understanding and told me alot about this school! We did have to wear uniforms, charity work was required, I got to pick some things but others were required, Karate was required, and charity work was also to be done... She then started explaining charity work, it was as a group and they went to hospitals, elders homes, and ORPHANAGES, I knew right then that I belonged at that school. I didn't have to look any further I was there. The next day, just to please my mom, we went to APL, another school. It was like British, so I said no very quickly. So tomorrow we are signing papers and Im done! I start next Tuesday and Im superrrrrr nervous. I am taking, English, Spanish (via USA), French, Tamil (state language), Biology, Chemistry, Earth Science, Physics, World History, Mathematics (Algebra, Geometry, etc.), Karate, Swimming, & another "sport" (table tennis[ping pong], racket ball, tennis, etc.). This school is CRAZY, but Im sure I can handle it. So the next one of you who complains that Oak Ridge is SO HARD, come to India and go to my school.(:
