In school, it's time to pick electives! I'm all set, but my friend isn't... at this very moment she is asking me what to do. We can pick two electives, and she has narrowed it down to three.
English Art Band
English is required every year, but you can also take it as an elective. THe english choices include Creative Writing, Public Speaking, and Journalism.
My friend is really into art, though more like anime style than realistic. That doesn't really matter though, since she's considering Studio Art. (you know, where you have a variety of little projects) She said she likes how it "relaxes" her at the end of the day.
She took flute in 4th and 5th grade, but didn't 7th and 8th. Next year she'll be in 9th. She told me it's her "hidden dream" to play the flute again, and she isn't able to take private lessons.
Any suggestions? Which of the three should she give up on?

Clear Bubble I'm currently enrolled in Band, and it's very cool, but if your friend only took it in 4th/5th grade, she may find the band material for 9th grade a lot harder.I would reccommend her to take Art and English.
I wish I could be love, Then I could be All over the world. I've been in band since 4th grade, and I'm now a Junior. I've taken all years of band class. When Bubble says 'she may find' I claim that to be an understatement. She will find the flute music to be much harder. Music is more complex in the higher levels, and it will be very difficult if she just does this jump. She'll need to practice a lot at home separately if she really wants to go into this area. If you want to know what kind of jump I'm talking about, think of it as jumping from an Algebra I class into a Pre Calculus Honors Class.
If she does choose to take the band class, then she won't need to take the art. Taking an art and band class at the same time is somewhat a redundancy because Music is Art. A performing art. So, yeah.
If she does take one of the English classes (which I think she should,) it depends on what she's already comfortable with. If she's good at public speaking, she should take creative writing. If she's good at writing, she should take public speaking. Journalism is kind of the inbetween. I suggest not taking Journalism. I'm taking a creative writing class, and it's fun, but a lot of work. Public speaking also sounds fun, but I'm already good with it.
I'll remember to love, You taught me how.
