Eliab made it to the music room without much a problem. He figured he might be able to learn new instruments. Not that the guitar was not fun, but it never hurt to learn another. Plus, The yankie loved to sing, another reason he chose the class.

As he looked around, he saw posters for auditions for two musicals, one in the winter, the other in the spring. One of which sparked his interest, "West Side Story". Who would have guessed that the musical based on one of his favorite movies to watch would even be the inspiration for a school musical in England, since the setting of the whole thing was actually in New York, back in the United States? How were they going to pull off the students playing the characters, the accents being so different from Briitish ones, almost half of those roles involving people of Puerto Rican descent?

Although, now that he thought about it, this academy had people from all over the world. Chances were, it all could be pulled off, with the right cast of actors and actresses. Plus, he thought he could actually make a good Riff. He thought about playing Tony, yet figured he could not do that role any justice. Plus, he imagined Rebecca would want to play Maria, and knew she would think it weird to have to be paired up with him on stage, being siblings and all. Eliab did not like that idea, either, because, to be honest, pretending to kiss his own sister during the one scene where Tony and Maria meet at the dance just sounded gross. Thinking it over, he knew he would settle for the role of Riff, he was mischevious enough.

All in all, the yankie liked the music classroom. He even wondered if, when he takes it again as an after school class, that Katherine would be in here. The odds appeared unlikely, but he could hope, right?

Charles found the Biology room without much difficulty. The reason for taking it was simple: agriculture often involved encountering some of the wildlife nearby, in certain areas of the world. To be better prepared for finding a solution best for both agriculture and nature when he takes over his mother's landscape business, the half-Scotsman thought this class would be worth it for the basics. Plus, Biology also involved plant life, another reason he chose the class. Overall, Charles figured it would be beneficial, whatever he learned here would be.
