The leaves rustled above Elisa’s head as she strolled along the gravel paths of the park. Slowly the large, glass construction in which she was to be expected came into view. In the distance she could hear the buzzing of the numerous students, the noise intensifying as she drew nearer to the main road which lead towards the entrance of the school. She could see many faces, some of which she seemed to remember vaguely from last year; it was hard to tell though from this distance. Turning her attention to the track underneath her, she softly started to hum [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IkYfB1C0Zgc]a song[/url]. Although she was not a particularly good singer it was something which she enjoyed doing when there were no people nearby. 

Her little tune got interrupted however by the earsplitting sound of the bell, her heart jolting as it appeared to echo off all buildings. With her heart still pounding in her chest, she carefully listened to the announcement.

Her curiosity had been piqued: Elisa had heard the words ‘World Journey’ mentioned before, but only by the senior students in a gossip kind of context. She thought it was kind of odd to announce it only now though, if it really was such a big thing. They could have at least told the students before the summer break so they could have anticipated on it a little bit, or send a letter for that matter. Although she was excited, part of Elisa wished there were still a few weeks in between the message and the actual expedition, such that she could prepare herself. Restlessly she looked around, searching for any House Elves or fellow housemates to lead her the way so she could hopefully find out about all the details. Spotting one of the pointy-ears, she made a small sprint in his direction.
