It was the fifth of November. I was in my room wondering what the next day would bring. I am an orphan so tomorrow was my big day to see what I got to do with the rest of my life. Usually a child would become an apprentice to whatever their mother or father did. But since I was an orphan I got a special bringing up day. I really don't know who will choose me. I'm four feet eleven inches and weigh about 80 pounds. I can't be a warrior. I have no interest in being part of the Diplomatic Service. I don't have good handwriting to be a scribe. And worst of all I hate being the center of attention. I like to blend in with the surroundings. No jobs at the palace are something I would be good at. Sigh. My name is Sam and I'm a 15 years old girl. Though people said it would have been better if I were born a boy so I could be a Ranger. Rangers are the protectors of the land. I wish I was a boy because I don't think anyone will pick me as an apprentice.
All of a sudden my roommate Maya came in. "Sam, what you doing in here? Everyone is outside talking about tomorrow. Come join us!" "No thank you. I don't want to talk about tomorrow…" "Aww Sam… someone will chose you." "What if they don't? What then?" "I don't know… You will be picked though." "(Sigh) If you say so. Well I'm going to go to bed. Night." "Night Sam." Maya said as she walked out.
