It's finally the last day of classes before the winter break kicks in. The start of Christmas break tomorrow will give us all a nice needed time out to spend with family and friends over the festive period. Personally, I will be spending most of the time getting ready for the first round of exams that start almost as soon as we get back. But I will be reserving some time for rest and relaxation of course. And with the final stages of moving in with Rhodes beginning this afternoon, I'm hoping that there will be more opportunities to spend time together.
"This class is pointless right now, being here is stupid," Poppy grumbles from her slumped position in the chair next to me.
"It's not completely useless; she's going over the stuff we need to know for the test," I quietly whisper to her. Everyone else is talking around us, but I still refuse to be disrespectful to the lecturer standing mindlessly droning to the front three rows that are actually paying attention.
"But it's shit we've already learned. Plus, she's uploaded it to the class page, she's literally reading off the slides. This is bull," Poppy insists, sitting upwards slightly and staring at my screen.
"Well, there's only five more minutes, you can do this," I gently encourage her. I do envy her c'est la vie approach to life sometimes, but it does sometimes come across as laziness.
"So that means I've been bored out of my mind for 85 minutes now, life really is wonderful," she remarks in a harsh tone.
"What's gotten into you today?" I inquire, turning my attention away from the lecturer and focusing it instead on my best friend. She's been in a bad mood since we got here, alternating between being sad and pissed off.
"Ugh, it's nothing... No, it's not nothing, it's Adan," she huffs, turning her body sideways in the seat, not even pretending to pay attention now.
