Writing Competition! If this collie went to human school, what would be their favorite class/subject?

Ends at the top of page 3 or on April 17th, whichever comes first.

[eldritch hound]

Username: angel bugs
Name: any truth is better than indefinite doubt | doyle
Name Meaning(s):

show name: a quote from "the adventure of the yellow face". it means 'sooner or later, you will have to make a decision'. you would rather take an unsavoury truth rather than suffer the doubt and anxiety of not knowing. ex wouldn't you rather know your test scores than not know them?
kennel name: a scottish physician and writer that was knighted by her majesty the queen. you may know him. he wrote a little known book serious called 'sherlock holmes' (among others) back in the 1890's. I love sir arthur conan doyle not only for sherlock holmes, but for his work as doctor and surgeon.
Gender: male
Prompt: stereotypical as it may be (and my favourite subject as well), this pups favourite school subject in english! or, specifically, the creative writing aspect of english! while he hates poems, he loves all kinds of similes, metaphors and hyperboles.
for a bit of a fun fact: his favourite writing principle/rule is 'chekhov's gun'. this principle suggests that any element placed inside a story or piece of writing, has to, at some point, play a part in the overall narrative ex: "he looked upon the gun that hung above the fireplace, illuminated in the soft glow of residual light that the embers gave as sleep claimed him like a comforting blanket of soft fur...it was as he was laying on his back, the towering figure looming over him that the sun glinted off the steel barrel of the shotgun above the fireplace that lulled him to sleep those days ago, like a distant memory. he managed to fight the other off, making a mad dash for the gun and fired..." it's basically a rule that encourages writes not to make false promises in their writings because of overexploited, unneeded details.

tl;dr: english...I mean really, what did you expect, boys named after one of the most recognisable socttish/british writers.

[Lex.]

Username: Lex.
Name: CHK's Little Einstein || Albert
Name Meaning(s): Named after Albert Einstein
Gender: Male
Prompt:
Albert would probably choose physics! That or anthropology.

[werepickle]

Username: werepickle
Name: Laszlo
Name Meaning(s): (optional)
Gender: Male
Prompt: Laszlo would love photography. He loves being outdoors seeing beauty and art in everything. Anything from macro shots to landscape everything is unique in their own way. But Laszlos favourite thing to capture would be people. To see their faces and posture portray true emotions and to bring happiness to those around him, he wouldn't ask for anything else. He loves bringing memories to life and capture those moments in a single shot for others to cherish and remember about old times. Laszlo believes the eyes are the windows to someone's soul and through his photography makes his point that this is true.

[Argenti]

Username: Argenti
Name: Stravinsky
Name Meaning(s): A Russian, later French-American composer during the 20th century.
Gender: Male
Prompt:
This collies favorite class is music theory! Stravinsky has something called perfect pitch where he can hear any sound and correspond it to a musical note. There’s something magical about the amount of math and how fine tuned compositions are.

[PrincessAlexis]

Username: PrincessAlexis
Name: Jamal
Name Meaning(s): An Arabic name meaning 'beauty' or 'grace'.
Gender: Male
Prompt: Jamal's favorite class would be foreign languages because first of all he can already communicate in multiple languages (human and canine) so he has an advantage at picking up on new communications rather quickly. He enjoys it the most because he feels that each new language not only enables you to make new friends and travel to new places, but it also helps you to think in a new way and offers libraries full of knowledge that would otherwise be inaccessible.
