• Our year at the school can be stressing but
  doable. The 2nd week of the year, the whole
  school goes to this camp site-like place. The
  point of this is to get to know each other
  better. The last night of the trip, all the
  classes each does some kind of performance in
  front of the whole school. We danced to the
  Danish anthem and we did kind of a
  cheerleader-dance to Lose Control by Missy
  Elliot, because Dado from our class is a
  cheerleader, so she taught us. ?
