Avalon could do this. She only had to make it through a few more days before Christmas break. She did enjoy school, especially being at Hogwarts, but she couldn't deny that she missed her family. And she was in dire need of some rest and relaxation. Between her studies and Quidditch practice, she was exhausted. Nevertheless, she knew she had to keep her stamina up until the holidays arrived - starting with Arithmancy class.

It didn't help that the room was freezing cold and extra dreary looking. Avalon was glad that she wore her scarf, but wished that she had remembered to bring her mittens. "Hello, Professor Sissay." Avalon greeted the woman politely with a wave as she slid into a seat toward the front. And was that...a waterfall at the front of the classroom? With a bowl of vegetables? Yet another bizarre lesson set up. That seemed to be the norm at Hogwarts. Avalon wasn't complaining though. At least her professors tried to make lessons as interesting as possible.
