I certainly won’t be taking Geography—I always get the locations of cities wrong. I’ve been thinking that I might do something like Journalism because I’ve published a few articles in the school magazine. Do you remember when the local newspaper published my writing last year?
Student 1: Yes. It was a really good article. I think that would be great for you, and Journalism sounds like a very exciting course to study. (school bell ringing)
