Floating down to her classroom, Catherine unlocked the window and helped herself in, closing it behind her. Unslinging the pouch that hung from her shoulder, she took out what little class materials she carried. Homeroom was mostly self-driven. In the first few months, Catherine had lectured very briefly on philosophical concepts, starting with the basics of logic: if A is true and B is true, then the statement, 'A and B' is also true, things of that nature. From there, she explained how all logical arguments began with premises, assumptions, and that while an argument can be sound, if the premises are untrue, then the argument is sound but invalid. In other words, she wanted to break down the idea that there were 'right answers' and 'wrong answers'. From there, she loosely covered some basic schools of thought within philosophy, nothing too in-depth. At this point in time, she had assigned the first years to pick a school of thought that interests them the most, and in essence, to do their own research on it, which may or may not culminate in a final project at the end of the year. But for the most part, homeroom was about freedom, light conversation, and dreading the coming gym class.

Speaking of gym class. Though relations had evened back out to cordial professionalism between herself and Jordan, Catherine couldn't help but notice the injuries, the winces of pain he thought he had hidden from her, and the way he behaved around the headmaster. Though she didn't pry, she couldn't get it off her mind. Putting the thought aside, Catherine unlocked the door and sat back down at her desk, waiting for the students to start trickling in.

As Leanne carried Eirwen off, ShiZhen looked at her watch and realized the time. [color=a187be]"We should be heading to class soon too!"[/color] She said to Bhu and Zeke. ShiZhen held out a hand to Zeke in case he needed to be lead. Though ShiZhen knew he wasn't blind, he did occasionally need help staying on track and not getting distracted or lost.

School life was exciting for ShiZhen. She had picked a focus on practical science, though she couldn't decide between environmental sciences or chemistry. She would pick environmental sciences if she wanted to learn more about meteorology and how to control the weather, which was tempting since she did have a small mood cloud following her around everywhere now, but chemistry was also extremely exciting since the universal solvent that was water had such a large influence on reactions. For the time being, her focus was theoretical science.

As for homeroom, she had picked the obvious choice of 'utilitarianism' as her focus subject.

[color=a187be]"What did you two pick for your 'philosophy school of thought' research project?"[/color] ShiZhen asked, curious.
