Officially the last day of the programme. We got to the
school nice and early and started the presentations, I went second so I could
get it over and done with, and I went pretty well even if I say so myself, only
slipped up on a couple of words which isn’t too bad considering one girl cried
halfway through hers and another just had to stop and sit down and do it
privately for the lecturer. HTFU
After the presentations had finished the teachers were doing
some speeches when all of a sudden the mother of the two brothers that own the
school came in in hysterics. Naturally we all went outside to so what the
problem was and a kid on a scooter, without a helmet, had come around the
corner and smashed into her parked car. Out of nowhere the kids mother came and
started yelling and trying to hit the mother of the two brothers that own the
school, one of the brothers went down to help his mum. After he went down the
father of the kid on the scooter started trying to fight him, even the kid who
hit the car managed to pick up his ambulance stretcher and swing it at him. It
all calmed down pretty quickly, the kid and family left in the ambulance and
the cops came… they didn’t really do much though.
After the excitement we all went back to the hotel to do our
own things before dinner, a few of us went for a final walk and got a yiros.
That night we went out and saw all of the music students, mentioned in an
earlier entry, perform and Jianni, one of the people on the trip, did a bit of
byzantine chanting with some of the musicians playing.
After the performance we went to the same restaurant that we
went to for Victoria’s birthday, we had a live band again and all of the music
students also came with us. We didn’t stay particularly late though because we
had to get up the next day to get back to Athens.
