Insects
I don't mind insects but would rather
not touch them. My house has a garden
at the back. We get a lot of ants. I often
go camping with my friends. Once, we canoed
to an island near my hometown and camped
there. There were thousands of mosquitoes.
I really got bitten and was itching for
days. There
were wild pigs which ate our food when
we were sleeping! I also go camping in
forests. We have to watch out for bee
hives.
School
Life
I have to wear a school uniform in Hong
Kong. That's a big change for me. In Argentina,
I can wear jeans and a T-shirt to school.
A lot of boys wear earrings and dye their
hair too. I guess that's not allowed here!
My school here has a larger variety of
subjects though. I can't study drama or
home economics in Argentina but can at
St. Marks School. Learning about businesses
is popular in both countries. Last year,
I studied Marketing, Accounting and Economics
at home.
Friends
I've only been in Hong Kong for a few
weeks and am starting to make friends.
All the students in |
my school are polite and friendly. At
home, I hang out with my friends all summer.
We go to each other's homes, play music
and play in our pools. It's common for
people to have small swimming polls in
their gardens. We also go camping or go
to shopping malls if it rains.
