Complaints about Queenswood

Hi guys!!!! What are you doing? I'm here, in a big school named Queenswood, somewhere of England. "Intensive but fun" is their slogan. Actually it's intensive. Maybe fun too, but so intensive. This is my sixth class today, then I have another class and after that I have a long time of sport. I have chosen tennis.

Monday was a very crazy day. I took a plane at the airport of Barcelona (Spain) and two hours later I was at London. The papers (I use to read them before going anywhere) said that the the school was 45 minutes far from the airport. Actually they were 2 hours. Maybe it's common at London. Maybe when someone here say 30 minutes he means 3 hours. But in my home city (Pamplona) it's not this way. I guess I have to get used to this.


When I arrived at the school I was given a room. The papers (again the papers) said that the room were individual or shared between two persons. What was my surprise when I came into the room and I noticed that I was the sixth person there. Obviously I went quickly to complain about that. Yesterday the gave me an individual room, number 27 at Senior House. So I will have to find another thing to complain about.


Maybe the food. Yesterday they offered us pizza for dinner and most people ate it delighted. most of them had a second helping of it. But this morning, there was pizza again in the menu. Of course there were other options, but a lot of people have eaten it again because nobody controled it. Pizza should just be offeren once a week. Otherwise we are going to get very fat.


To continue complaining the papers (the papers again) said the students had to speak English all time, if not it would have serious consequences. Another lie. I get tired of hearing Russian, Italian, French... I don't understand those languages. Of course I speak Spanish with my friends, but somebody should control it.


This school has good things too, but I will talk about then another day.
