SUBJECT: REPORT #1
Hi!
So here is my first report as promised! I've been in IVI just about two weeks now and it's still all really overwhelming but I have things to tell you about!! Firstly, Molly says hi to you both! It's really weird we never saw her for years and years and now I'm in classes together with her! She's been helping me catch up but really the classes aren't exactly difficult.
First of all we do classe every day in the morning and then in the afternoon we have team training. This is the WORST. I mean there's no cutting anyone any slack, and I really suck at the physical stuff especially. Darla I bet you'd be really good at this with all your dance classes, you'd be with the scary girls of the group or something. My team is team Peacock. That isn't as fun as it sounds. The team leader is this crazy army guy and half the team... okay most of them ... yeah they're pretty scary. But some of them are scary and nice (that happens, like bossy sisters hahaha I'm just joking but you can't pick on me from here!) so that's okay. There's Pad and he's alright and we just got a new girl called Kelly who seems a bit angry. There's this weird dude called Fred who's European and does things with milk. That's his power. Like, milk manipulation. That's possibly the weirdest one here, actually.
But the good bit of training is when I get to do things with my power too! I'm getting better at it already, we ended up in a tunnel the other day and I was sharing out the light and it kind of worked! It wasn't perfect but it was okay!
Okay what else. Other than my team there is my class. In my class so far that I know there is Molly (you know her! She's not in my team though), Odd Bjarne (this is my roommate, his name is Odd Bjarne and not just Odd. He makes tunnels. That's his vol power!), Seth (he's like a grumpy old man, it's really funny), Juli (she's Spanish and seems a bit angry), Sadie (she's one of the vol siblings from Maine!), Kody (he speaks really weird and turns into a kid, he's got a weird power too), Karim (he's like Oh No They Didn't in human form and he told me to read his blog to get caught up so I'm trying to read some of it but some of it's really not that interesting and I don't have the patience for someone's blog) and lots of others but also Toby. Toby's cool, we arrived together so I think we kinda made friends automatically which was cool.
Okayyy I am trying to remember because you guys did tell me to write everything and everything is a lot. So I'm gonna finish this off as just little bullet points:
- They are doing a musical! They're doing Hairspray and me and Toby are gonna audition. I don't know what part I'm going to audition for because lol I am no Link Larkin really right? I am a Tracy if I'm anything, right? I think they're gonna change bits and... I'm not sure. I will let you know. And no, Darls I will not have a mishap like that one time at school. It was one time! I'm not gonna do it again.
- When someone says they have a tiger here it's not them making up an imaginary tiger, it's a legit tiger. A real life tiger.
- Tunnels are more fun than I thought they'd be except we were stuck there for too long
- We only have weird set internet hours here so we need to work out when is good for Skype
Okay this is really long I'm hoping it's good enough for your standards.
- Jamie
