Winter

The hours and days at school flew by quickly, and the end of the month and various tests were constantly behind the door, sometimes even literally when we found out after the start of the class that the papers that Sister Beáta had previously held in her hand when she greeted us at the entrance were an unexpected test from some lesson or from history.
The weather changed quickly and we all started pulling warmer clothes from the closets and from under the bed because when the thermometer in the window in the hallway in front of the dining room started waving at us with 10 degrees above zero, a t-shirt and shorts really weren't enough anymore.
We also moved from a large room in the hospital to smaller rooms in the building next to the school where we had more privacy and more space for personal belongings, three in a room was already different from fourteen. Even after moving, we continued to eat at the canteens in the hospital because there was no other option in the area and we didn't know enough about it outside of it yet to look for any shops or refreshments.
It was getting really cold to run outside, so we started going to the gym, which was created after the school was founded by roofing and supporting the remaining perimeter walls of one of the buildings, which remained standing after being hit by a smaller meteorite fragment when part of the roof and the floor of the first floor collapsed in right half of the building.

As the end of the year approached, it gradually got colder outside and it started to snow, piles of snow were forming in the yard, which you could jump into and play in at your leisure, for some girls it was the second encounter with snow because due to the warming in the past century it hardly snowed.
Christmas arrived at the former monastery and under the big tree in the dining room we found a lot of small and larger packages with name tags on them, for each of us there were five to six packages, which mostly contained clothes or school supplies. Maybe I wouldn't have been so excited about it before, but now all the things came in handy, warm gloves and a hat with a giant pom-pom were the best for the winter, and the school stuff came in handy in the hours when we weren't using tablets.
A few days after Christmas, which remained until the end of the year, we had free time and a lot of time for fun, we also learned that on New Year's, Beáta will take us on a trip to the former capital of Moravia, which today lies on the shores of the two connected large lakes Bisterz and Zejl.
