The Butterfly Circus

We just watched the short movie “The butterfly circus”, and the part that affected me the most, was the compere sent between the main character Will, who was without arms and legs, and the caterpillars transformation to become a butterfly.  The caterpillar was owned by a small boy who lived with the circus, and it was the first we were introduced to in the movie. At that moment, the caterpillar is just a caterpillar, and that is also the first time we meet Nick. Nick is working at a freak show as the main attraction, and he is mocked several times a day. When Nick decides to travel with the Butterfly circus, which is much nicer to him, we also see that the caterpillar has become a cocoon, one step closer to a beautiful butterfly. Nick is coming more and more out of his shell, and achieving things he never thought he could do, such as swimming. He becomes a performer at the Butterfly circus, but not as a freak, but a stunt diver. He becomes a huge hit, and also an inspiration for other with struggles. During this period of time, the caterpillar has made the entire transformation from an ordinary caterpillar, to a beautiful butterfly. The short movie ends as we see the butterfly fly away. 

My expectation

My expectation of the second year at Sandvika secondary school is that it is going to be a school year with a lot of working. I am really looking forward to the new subjects that I have chosen myself, such as international English and physics, and I have high expectations about these subjects. I expect second grade to be a fun and instructive, and I expect to be graded in the different subjects.  

Being young in Norway

To be young here in Norway is fantastic! Or at least I think so. As a 16 year old student at Sandvika secondary school, I really enjoy my life. I go to a grate school, have many good friends and a very good family. There are a lot of spare time activities to choose from where I live, and in my spare time I play football for a team called Helset. Football is a big sport here in Norway, and there are a lot of expectations to you as a player on the football practices, both from the coaches and teammates. I really like being a teen in Norway, but if I should mention one bad thing, it would have to be the temperatures! It gets really cold in the winters, and personally I prefer warmer temperatures.
