United Nations
Vereinte Nationen

Today, it was the second day of school. We learned about adverb clauses, different types, when and how to use them and more things like that. More interesting was again the second part of it, when we just talked. It is very hard to understand, what the boy from spain or the students from asia said. I hope, for them it is not the other way round and we are quite hard to understand, too.
When school was over, Jonas, Johannes (both from Germany, near the Bodensee) and I went to the headquarter of the United Nations. This was really cool, because we had a guided tour which was very interesting. We also went into the United Nations General Assembly hall, which is a historical place, I think.
After that we went to the Rockefeller Center, thats a complex of about 30 skyscrapers. The tallest one has got 70 stories and an observation deck. We thought it was free to get to the top, but it wasn't. It was 20$, which I think it's too much, when we get to the 63rd story every day for free. But the other buildings of the Rockefeller Center were also great, just looking at them from the outside.
Then I went home to do my homework, because it was already late. And of course to write my daily note.
