Vow of Silence!!!

At the moment on February the 18Th at 1:40 to 2:30 which is one whole period, my class (E7A) are doing a practice of the Vow of Silence. It all started by Hanad the super duper kid!! We found them at the door of the lab, lined up and all silent, so my teacher Miss.Pollock decided to make a practice of the Vow of Silence so we can be used to it when it is March 5Th-6Th(You don't have to do it for the whole day but it would be nice to at least try it, plus its fun to experiment it and know what the people that can not speak feel like). Right now its actually easy because we are distracted by the computer but, when the day of Silence comes you won't be able to go on the computer or chat with any friends on MSN or face book or anything like that. On the day of Silence we are suppose to stay quiet for 24 hours (1 whole day) and we can't speak to any of our sisters/brothers/ parents (etc.). We can't even write a note to them,but we can make hand movements and/or face movements so they can understand us (its going to be hard!!). Right now i feel like I was just talking but i actually wasn't for 28 minutes so far. I am proud of my self and for my classmates and of course the lovely Miss.Pollock, because we are doing a great job. So, I just wanted you to know that doing the Vow of Silence is a great thing for those who can't speak. Hope you liked my post. Thank you.
