196 Points for Ravenclaw

Just incase, you know. Anyone was wondering. Thought I'd just leave this here.

Because really, it's something to reflect on.

Not true. I could just be an overachiever, doing these things so I get the best grades.

I'm not, but hey. Why rule it out.

[greenteengenius]

That would simply mean you believe getting the best grades is the most worthwhile pursuit. Perhaps it is--I have not been here long enough to form an opinion of the syllabus.

[arrogantalloy]

"Worthwhile" is subjective. There are people who think making it to class on time is worthwhile.

[greenteengenius]

It is certainly the easiest route, and not exactly difficult. Except in the case of getting lost, perhaps.

But you have better things to do?

[arrogantalloy]

There isn't a time I don't have something better to do, to be honest.

[greenteengenius]

Do you even attend class, then?

[arrogantalloy]

Of course. Hey, I might be a genius and ahead of the class. But that doesn't mean I can't learn alternative ways to do something, or a nugget of information I've missed or gleaned over in the past.

[greenteengenius]

Ah. For a moment I was beginning to wonder why you attended Hogwarts at all.

And learning others' ways of doing things is definitely a useful shortcut.

[arrogantalloy]

You know, too many people say that. I'm starting to worry about what people think about me.

Also can show if you actually do it the best way.

[greenteengenius]

True. Though I notice the teachers seem to want me to do it their way regardless of whether it is the best.

[arrogantalloy]

Yeah, I've found if you ignore them and do it your way and it gets results. They can't scold you.

[greenteengenius]

Oh, they can, they just can't get me to listen.

[arrogantalloy]

At least we're the same there.
