13, so I'm also a student. I'm not at a regular school. All
my classes are at the TV studio, with my teacher, Lynda.
My classes are on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.
Lynda is a fantastic teacher. She's inteligent and really
patient!
It's Wednesday today. My classes are science and
geography. 'm not good at science, so Wednesday isn't
