A Star from Mosul

I've been planning to write earlier but didn't have time to.. I'm spending lots of time on the computer (Working on my program), and then doing homework, that my back has started to ache me a lot.

We went back to school on Saturday, and I got my marks. They're much better than the first part of the year, and hopefully, the second part will be better. I managed to raise all my grades, the average of every subject's marks are now above 95 except for Arabic.. It's 87! Yes, what can I do? Well, fortunately, the teacher won't agree to teach the 5th grade any more because of all the people who called the principle and told her how bad she was! And, I and other friends who are planning to skip the next year, went and talked to an Arabic language supervisor. He promised to look at our exam papers and took a look at the grades card too.. We'll see what he'll do.

Yesterday, an American soldier was shot in our neighborhood and the Americans blocked the street. We came back from school to my aunt's house and stayed there till the roads were opened again. Mom and Aya were at home.. When the soldier was shot, the American soldiers started shooting randomly (My cousin who works in a nearby office said that 3 bullets got into his office) mom just lied on the ground immediately, and then went upstairs to check the windows, but nothing was broken.

I, while writing this, am watching my uncle by his webcam.. He's in Australia. Oh God, I think my cousin is crazy!

Okay, I'll try to concentrate..

The school has become a river like always.. We sometimes like to call it "The green sea". The employee who's encharged of cleaning the school lives in a small room in the school. Well, this small room is now full of water so the mistress gave the employee a class and the students who study in this class were divided and are studying with other classes till the new school is finished. So, some of my friends of last year's class are now with me in the same class :)

Now, here are some blog news.. The new blog from Mosul (The days of our life) is updating his blog.. Pass by him and wish him luck.
Another cousin of mine started blogging, Hassan, in (An Average Iraqi), he's 19, and he's studying civil engineering. And he recently was robbed (In fact, it was his father's car) ... Well, he's willing to have a more successful blog than all the other relatives. Let's see ;)

The situation doesn't seem to be changed.. But, and I don't know why, my uncles are going out and visiting people! I see an uncle aday :) And sometimes, we go visit them! Dad says that the situation is safer now than before the elections, but I didn't notice.
