The holiday weekend was definitely over right from the start
of our first classes this morning; and everything we did today was all about
getting ready for our exams next week.
That was true after school too, and though the decision to
invite Rowen and I to the first exam study session of the week wasn’t
universally popular; we were studying at Michael’s house, and he insisted. Vanessa and Nora were the girls who weren’t
happy about that – especially after they’d gone to the trouble of putting
together a partial ‘couples club’ group; and Michael was once again not getting
with the program. While that had me in
the tweeird zone, it also wasn’t long before the other two couples realized
that Rowen and I were really able to help them with their studies; and they
were happy to have us work with them.
Miranda didn’t help me out with Vanessa and Nora, but she did seem to be
having fun every time she checked in on us in the dining room. I loved the hugs and displays of affection,
since I really love Miranda right back; but the timing was definitely more than
a little suspicious too.
Miranda and Jacob are back to work tomorrow, but I don’t
think that was the only reason why Tim offered to host our next study group
after school tomorrow at his house – it’s not as if his parents will be home
either.
Moving along, we studied for two hours, and then Rowen and I
were the first to leave. She needed to
get to the computer store, so we split up right away; and I went straight
home. Alicia was still there, but she
didn’t stay long once I was drafted to take over and help Mom with the
cooking. Ethan and Ehlana supervised,
and we traded daily updates; then repeated the process for Dad after he got
home.
It was a work night after we ate and cleaned up. Mom and I worked on the family business; Dad
did his thing; and Ethan and Ehlana must have decided that since I’d started
studying for my Grade Seven finals, that they should do the same for their
upcoming Grade Eleven exams. They were
determined to be ready to start their senior year of high school in September,
and plan to be ready to take the summer off too by the time I start summer
vacation.
I worked on my computer for two hours; did a Magi lesson
with Mom after that; and helped her to get Ethan and Ehlana tucked in for the
night before coming upstairs and getting ready for bed too. It’s been a standard school night study and
computing session since then; and I’m only wrapping that up a bit early because
I’m tired already; and need to crash for the extra hour or so.
The next two days are likely going to be a near-repeat of
today, with exam study sessions and evening work at home. I may even skip going to Mom and Dad’s
baseball practice tomorrow night – unless it gets rained out. The weather forecast as of right now isn’t
looking great for our Thursday night practice, but I hope that’ll change;
because we have our first game on Saturday afternoon. That’s going to be different – not having
morning games – but the younger divisions get all of the morning time slots. Most of our games this year will be at noon.
I really do need to get some rest, and don’t have anything
else to report for today, so...
...until next time, this is Magi Master Cassie Proctor;
logging out!
