Some of you may remember this thread I posted nearly a year ago...

Well, I'm doing it again this year! The only difference is that because I did well last year and I really enjoy Latin as a subject, I'll be reading a much harder piece and will be competing against people a year older than me, so there's going to be steep competition. I am of course excited but a little nervous also, I don't expect to achieve the status I got last year, but meh, it would be nice. ;)

Perhaps some magical PT luck might give me a boost? :D

(Hehe, and if anyone would like to hear me reading some Latin, and heaven knows why you would :p , you can pm me and I'll send you a link. I don't want to post my rather embarrassing Latin accent, which sounds nothing like my real accent, on a board for absolutely anyone in the world to see!)

Good luck, Zara!
I'm sure you'll do great, and I bet your accent is really good (I wouldn't notice if it was bad anyways, cause I have no idea what a Latin accent sounds like :o:p)

I took Latin in high school & only had to recite to the class. It was not
a competition, but was hard for me because I hated to read aloud.

I wish you the best of luck with this.
