Classes on the first day of school always seemed a waste of time to Emily. The point of school in general was to prepare for a test that would largely determine the rest of their lives. The teachers were there to assist in that venture. So, in their assistance, they wanted to spend 20 minutes talking about the rules every class had every year anyway? Bullshit.

Still, the lessons themselves were okay. Math was always something that just clicked with Emily. Biology less so, but she'd always worked hard and as long as she did so, it didn't bother her too much. Geography, on the other hand, was annoying. There was never a specific answer, and even when it was clear, it was long-winded and tedious.

Glad it was over, Emily headed out of class for lunch. Stepping into the queue, she took her meal and watched the room, looking for anything interesting.
