Well now this was an answer LouAnn knew and pretty much understood. Hoping to be among the first to answer this time rather than among the last, LouAnn raised her hand. "We get the Personal Transit from our first name," she answered. There. Short and sweet and to the point...and hopefully correct.

"I think from our first name professor," said Sara

Kyle said,"Our First Name Proffesor."

Ooh ooh. Livvy knew this. Yes she did... oh yes she did. Raising her hand, the sixth year answered, "We find our Physical transit from our first name... I believe." At this moment, she flipped through the pages of the textbook to the chapter of the Transit Cycles, briefly reading the section they were on and reading ahead a little. Then Livvy looked up to see what the Professor would be saying next.

Destiny raised her hand and answered matter-of-factly 'From our first name.'

Ahhh flick flick flick!
Sarah was panicking already and she hadn't even started with the numbers yet.Flicking through the texbook she finally found the answer to the question.Raising her hand in the air, she kept reading the book as she answered. "Uhh that would from our first name, Professor..." at least she hoped so.

"Our name..." She exclaimed raising her hand again. "Oh I mean first name."

Herminny raised her hand and said, "I believe that information about our phyisical transit cycle from the transit of our first name on our birth certificate".

James is typical ravenclaw style raised his hand and calmly said you get the information from your first name"

Tavelon's hand shot up in the air. "Our first name" he answered. "But, professor, what happens if someone changes their name from their birth certificate? Which would they use to calculate it?"

Virgi knew this question by heart and raised her hand. "That would be by our first name professor," Virgi said a little smartly.

Realizing that many others had already answered the question, Ella found no harm in responding also. "Derived from your first name, professor."

From the corner of her eye, she saw James. She waved slightly and smiled.

they would have to use there birth name would'nt they as that is there true name not one they themself have chosen! is that not right?

james saw ella and simled back

Ella was impressed by mostly everyon ein the class; they knew so much. Especially the Ravenclaws. Nothing against Gryffies either. Teehee.

Ella winked at James, hoping to send the message, Courtyard later?

ella winked at james and somehow he new what it ment so, he winked back in a agreement

Giving a light smile, and actually already knowing the answer to the question, Tammy's hand shot up faster than usual and she gave a little smile, before answering herself. "I believe it is deprived form your first name, right?" Maybe it was, oh noes. Doubting herself, wasn't working.

She needed to be sure, be sure be sure be sure. Glancing down at her text book, she ran her finger down the side of it quickly. Then admired the sticky note on chapter 2, while the title Chapter 28, sat at teh top of the page she had open.

Warren slowly raised his arm up. '' Professor,'' he said smiling. '' I do believe you get it from your first name? '' he put his hand down and hoped he was correct.

do you not used the a table to give letters values and then add up the name values and if you have double figures add them until you get down to a singal number. james said with a air of hopfulness

you them find the meaning of the number?

Fannntasssticc.

Ella didn't want to get distracted by James; she loved the fact that he was in the class, yet she got lost too easily. She refocused on Arithmancy.

"Professor, I'm sorry if this would be little off topic, but are we ever going to do paired assignments in this class?" Ella asked tentatively. Smiling, hoping.
