School... Um.... Is Swell? Part 1

Ok, so for now I have given up writing my expiriences in order, hopefully I'll get to all of my other things, trust me when I say life is a blur here.
My first week of school was horribly challenging. I just want to say that when I signed up for foreign exchange it was for a cultural expirience, not acedemic. But I deffinatly recieved an acedemic challenge. My high school is the best in Ecuador and one of the best in South America. It is really hard, My school begins at 7:00 and ends at 3:30 every day. In the past year at Ashland High I took a 4th period out because I couldn't stand being in school for that long. Note: When Alexa learned that she would have to be going to school on Saturday I joked and said that Ecuador would be better. Well the irony is that she doesn't have to go to school on Saturday and I do... from 8:30 until 10:30. Pretty Swell!
I guess that my feelings about all this are, whatever, everything is awesome. I didn't want an acedemic challenge but I sure as heck got one. I'll take this opportunity to learn as much as I can!
I am in some international program that is all around the world, the problem is that I can't pronounce it and thus when I tried to write it a few seconds ago it wasn't really a word. Essentially my program is really difficult. The good news is that I am in all the same classes exept for one with my sister Johanna. So here is a list of my classes:

1. Historia- World History but I haven't had it yet.
2.Biologia- Biology, I like the teacher and in the first class there was a dead monkey in a plastic bag... I was kinda weirded out.
3. Sistemas Ambientales- Natural Systems? I think but right now we are learning about cells. The only class I don't have with my sister, it is really small too, 5 peaple and 2 are exchange students.
4. Economia- Economics, it is microeconomics, the teacher seems pretty cool, he joked with the class and included everyone.
5. CAS- Community Service, I need 150 hours of community service and some how this is a class, but I haven't had it.
6. Matimaticas- Math, deffinatly difficult since I hate math. But right now I at least kind of understand the material.
7. Ingles- English, it is a very high level and I have actually gotten quite a few questions wrong. The teacher isn't the best, his english is basic and he doesn't seem to know what he is doing parts of the time.
8. TOK- Philosophy, my first homework was in this class, I had to write ¿Que es Conocimiento? What is knowledge, I copied Wikipedia... hey, when you can't even understand what your writing copying from Wikipedia is allowed.
9. Lenguaje- Literally language, but Spanish, everyone else has to read a novel but the teacher said that me and Adam, the other exchange student, can start with kids stories... Thank you! Otherwise I would have died, I also like the teacher. To be totally honest she kinda reminds me of Jan Christensen. Who is pretty wild.
10. Psicologia- Phsycology, it is a really small class and I'm interested in the subject. I think 7 students.
11. Monografia- A project... I don't really know anything else.
12. Sociologia- Sociology, another small class. I am intersted it it too so it all works out, I think 6 students.
13. Recreation- P.E.
14. My class on saturday, I believe another project...

Some classes are for longer periods of time than others, I am still trying to figure it all out...
