Taking her seat, she brought out her notebook, quill, and ink, getting everything ready before Josh happened to sit down next to her. TEEHEE, Josh. Yea, she scooted her chair a little more closer to his; if that was even possible considering their desks were paired up anyways.

Having to hold onto her quill though so it didn't blow off of her desk from the breeze, Evelyn frowned and looked towards the windows, wondering if she could ask Hadley to close them. Yet they were already closed. What in the wooorrrld?

With the first question of the lesson though, Evelyn blinked and mentally shook her head, raising her hand to answer after a few others spoke up. Good Merlin, could Cookie Girl sound anymore like a book? "Arithmancy is the study of numbers, their own personal meanings that is, and how these numbers relate to or have influence on human life. The subject uses the Pythagorean number system, in which each letter of the alphabet is assigned a certain number, and by using this system and what each individual number means, we can pretty much lay out our lives from the past, present, and future, including our strengths and perhaps weaknesses we need to work on. It's like, almost a form of divination through numbers." Although that didn't mean it was always true! Goodness knows she didn't believe some of it.

"While numerology..." Nu-mer-ology. What...in the world...was that? "Well that's just what muggles study, isn't it? Pretty much the same as Arithmancy, but it's used everywhere." Everywheerrreeeee. "I think muggles even use it to determine things about supposed aliens that live in space."

She blamed her thoughts on the muggle box.
