Antonio seemed to be just a little down today. He knew it was something to do with the flooding. He just felt really sad about things that had been happening lately. He was sure the students were down about the situation, too, but maybe he could make the lesson fun. He hoped so.
"It seems as though the muggles are fascinated with water. They've managed to find all sorts of things to do involving water, sports and activities of all sorts. Does anyone know what some of these things are?", he asked.
ooc: Please feel free to come and join the lesson, but please don't announce you are showing up late. Just act as if you had been here the whole time. Announcing you are late is a no no, and will result in points being deducted from your house!
Thanks.
This lesson will be conducted very leisurely, so be sure and check back.
When she was greeted, Anna responded to the professor with a warm, appreciative smile. He'd been a wonderful Head of House, and she'd surely miss working with him. He seemed to be a bit under the weather today, though, so she smiled a little wider, hoping to convey the message 'After the
rain, there comes a
rainbow'. Her mother had always said that to her, and it meant that after the bad points in life, the good points will surely come---just like after a terrible thunderstorm, a pretty rainbow will more than likely appear.
Of course they'd be studying water sports today. Water had been quite the common topic throughout the school year. Water sports were a fun topic to discuss, though, and it made Anna think of all the good ways water could be used. Raising her hand at the sound of a question, Anna said, "Synchronized diving is a really interesting water sport, in my opinion. That's when two divers attempt to perform the same exact dive into the water at the same exact time. I've always found it interesting that they do such incredible stunts while timing their motions so accurately."
