Lesson Three: [justify] Professor Effie Snow sat at her large oak desk, his soft gaze settled upon the large stack of papers she really needed to grade and sort through. Effie knew she needed to stop procrastinating and actually get around to making the pile of papers smaller but grading was so boring. The Hufflepuff Head of House considered it to be the equivalent of homework and classwork that the students seemed to hate so much. They were slowly piling their way into the classroom and she was left sitting there looking down at the pile still wishing that it would sort itself. With a soft sigh she figured she might as well forget about it now, but it would still be there later. That was the annoying part about it. Professor Snow noted that the time had come to begin today's lesson and she gracefully rose from her comfortable chair and moved in front of the large oak desk, leaning against it as the lecture began. "This lesson is devoted to the vibration held within the vowels of your name. We call this component of our core the Heart's Desire. By understanding what lies within this vibration, you will gain a deeper connection to the part of yourself that holds passion and desire. You will feel your greatest motivations because the Heart's Desire connects you to that which is most dear to your heart." Professor Effie stated softly. For some reason she always felt like she was trying to explain the existence of time or something confusing. Her students seemed to understand what she was saying and because of that she could not be more proud of them. Clearing her throat she continued softly. "We place a great deal of emphasis on logic in our culture. As a result, the Heart's Desire often becomes the part of us that we pay the least attention and this is a grave error." Professor allowed for a brief pause before continuing, feeling it imperative to emphasize her next point so the students could let it sink in fully. She hoped they understood the lesson and what she wanted from them. Effie felt like she would be a very poor teacher if she didn't help the students try to understand in any way that they could. A warm smile formed it's way onto her soft features. "By suppressing this part of ourselves, we often spend a lifetime doing things to just get by without knowing what we really want and what is truly passionate for us. We will be determining your Heart’s Desire next week. For this week, I want you to reflect upon those things which you are passionate about." Professor Snow closed the lecture with rare emotion, as if she had become entranced by the subject matter itself. Was it weird that she found there to be something almost passionate Arithmancy and how deep it was. "It is the passion that resides within the Heart’s Desire that is the key to directing our purpose and ensuring our success. It is what you must feel, honor, and embrace in directing your other core parts. Class dismissed!" Effie waved the class off. She hoped to see some really interesting things the students were passionate about. Maybe next class she would share an essay of her own to them. I N S T R U C T I O N S: 1) RP the lesson 2) For extra write a small paragraph or two on what you are passionate about[/justify] |

[justify] Once again, it was time for Arithmancy, and Proserpina Laurent was very excited about attending again. It was half way through the year, and Proserpina had learned so much, over a long period of time here in Hogwarts, and she was enjoying it. Being a witch was awesome! Proserpina was smiling by the time she entered the Arithmancy classroom. No one could bring her down! She was just excited and happy to be around, and she was going to stay that way too. She took her seat at the front of the classroom where she waited for the class to begin. She might have been impatient, but she really did not mind it at all. She just wanted to learn more about everything, and that was it. Proserpina looked around the classroom to see how many others had arrived and how much longer it would take for the class to begin. As soon as she heard Professor Snow speak, she smiled and looked up so she could pay attention. The lesson today was going to be over the Heart's Desire, which was something else. She didn't know how to really figure out what her heart's desire actually was, but she was looking forward to it. However as the lesson went on, it became apparent that if they did not follow their heart and the desire, then they could suppress it and spend a lifetime doing things just to get by. That was not something she had in mind! She wanted to do what her heart wanted. Though this lesson, Professor Snow wanted them to reflect what was really passionate about. She thought that she knew what she was passionate about, but they were going to be calculating the desire the next lesson. Professor Snow then dismissed the class. Proserpina packed her things and she left the classroom to write about what she was passionate about.[/justify]
