Second Beat

[toocoolforthis]

A public service announcement, since it seems that all of you are extremely in need of the reminder:
There is less than a month left of school.
(You're welcome.)

To be precise, there are twenty-three days left. Slightly more than three weeks. Only seven of those are exams, so approximately 30% of our remaining days will be spent in torture.
In terms of hours, it's even less. 23 days is 552 hours. There are 40 total hours of exams remaining. Comparatively, that means 7% of our time, and all of it before the end of May.
I could compare that to the amount of time in your lifespan, or that the universe has existed, but I don't want to write that many fucking decimals.
It will be over soon. Don't give yourselves aneurysms.

It may be different facing as a teacher, rather than a student.
In theory, it allows for more amusing circumstances.
In practice, apparently some teachers get even more uptight about it than students, but there's no such thing as a perfect world.

They are sad students and I refuse to consider that we go to the same school.

Ah, oui. I am not one of them. My subject is elective however, so that may have something to do with it. Who knows?

Study is a matter of interest, no matter the subject and success is wholly based on the effort you care to put into it. But overtaxing oneself is no good either.

Ahaha, but do not think so poorly of your fellow peers, petit Strider. That seems somewhat harsh!

[toocoolforthis]

I will stop thinking poorly of them when ten lines is no longer counted as an entire essay.

Touché. Children nowadays do not care much for writing. Such a sad thing, and truly I do not understand, but conform with it. Goodness knows this level of ease would not do in Beauxbatons. Ah, but I digress.

You are a good boy. I like you. But there again, you are related to one of the professors so you probably attain good work ethic from him!

[Psh can he really say that? Now he's just making conversation though.]

[toocoolforthis]

No offense to him, or to you.
But you don't spend all that much time around Professor Strider, do you.
