Whispers of Voice

In the morning Lizzy and I got up early, as we would all week. Weekends too sometimes, I thought, With a lot of homework we'll be getting up early every day. I hope Animals is fun. Maybe they'll take us out for field work! My brain continued as I got dressed.

Max, Tilly, Lizzy, and I walked down the grand staircase and into the dining hall. After we got our food we sat down and examined our schedules while the boys walked up with their dogs. "First is Countries of the World. I don't like that class." I sighed. "Then languages. I can pass that. I'll help you Liz, don't worry. Oh! Third is PE! I love Protection Education! We get to hit people!" I smiled at the thought. "Animals is fourth and etiquette is last. That's a full schedule!" I commented.
"I have the same schedule as you. Odd, but nice." Matthew said.
"I have PE and Animals with you guys. COW (countries of the world) second, etiquette first and languages last." Evan said, jealously looking at Matthew.
Matt and Lizzy talked about how Saturday had gone after Evan and I had left, while Evan and I listened. Finally we had to leave for first period and went our separate ways. In COW we reviewed from previous years learning and got a world map to fill in. The bell rang and we trouped to languages. On the door was a sign saying "Farsi". We began to talk in Farsi then. This was my hardest class because I had to talk in front of the class sometimes. I picked up languages fast and could speak them well and the teacher knew that. She called on me as little as possible because she knew I could do what she was asking. We have to write a page in Farsi about what we did over the summer. At least we don't have to read it to the class. Lizzy will need help with that. I thought to myself. Note to self: work tonight. Help her.
"PE is next! Fun!" I said. We walked to the double story barn that served as our gym.
"Alright." The PE teacher said. "Find a partner and we'll see how much you remember from the last years."
