Another day in our garden

Stunning weather.
There have been many people on the move. I heard many cars and the sound of motorcycles. My neighbour informed me about the closure of the Vaalserberg. Too many people fancied a climb up the hill.
I understand why but don't understand why they thought to be the only ones.

I was busy studying my exam by heart while sifting the compost. That's another thing I don't understand. Why on earth do I have to do oral exams? In my opinion, it has nothing to do with me writing a perfect text, more does it has to do about me being capable to learn texts by heart.
Oh, and I'm not good at that.
