Now, what else? Right...her birth date. "I was born on December 2nd, 2053." Whoa, she was soooo old already. "You better right that down, by the way." Nancy inclined her head towards the girl's parchment before shifting her parchment slightly so she could write on it properly. "What's yours?" Cue expectant grin. This was sooo awesome!
Badge, Sltherin Prefect. The other Slytherin Prefect, sweetness now she knew both of them. "Hey Nancy. I'm Arya Grace Lovegoods." It felt weird saying her whole name, but she vaguely remembered something about having to use your whole birth name in the calculations. Taking a seat beside the prefect she placed her parchement partially covered with what she would call notes, but some else might refer to as doodles, and wrote down Nancy's information.

"My birthday is July 6, 2059." she said, looking up at the older girl with a smile. Flicking the tip of her pheonix feather quill under her chin, she looked at the girl thoughtfully. "Sooo..." I totally wasn't paying attention and don't have the slightest idea what were suppose to be doing. "I'm not really good at...Arithmancy. Yes, that seemed to sum it up.

She shook her head. "I'm not sure...Professor Hadley never really said that we should read what it says about us..."

Though, well, he had to admit that it was like he was a first year again but what could he expect? they were studying the 'basics' after all.

And now they needed to be partnered again and he didn't like partnering with people and the pain would be doubled since they should be partnered with people they didn't know. Shrug.

Looking around, he scrutinized each of his classmates' faces in order to know which one he didn't know because really, he knew almost every people around or at least, by their first names and looks. And then there was the Slytherin girl who he usually see with Evelyn. Assuming that she didn't have a partner to torture yet, he quickly walked toward her with a crooked smile.

"Hey. You. I don't know you. Can we be partners?" Truth be told he didn't know the girl's complete name but he did know the girl's first name... Destiny. And it sounds feisty and Destiny and feisty even rhymes together! Hehe.
No takers?

Perhaps the smile that was upon Destiny's face was a little too intimidating. If smiles could be intimidating. It had to be the reason, or else she would have had a partner as soon as the Professor said find a partner.

Unless everyone knew she was HORRIBLE at the subject.

At least she knew how to count!

Wiping the intimidating smile off her face, she still glanced around the room for someone to come and save her from being partner-less. Sure, she could have picked someone, but what fun is that? No, it was more fun to watch people fight to be your partner..which was not happening at the moment.

Just about to claim defeat and do this task on her own, someone had approached her! Yes! This saved her from doing all the work on her own. And the boy did just so happen to be someone she did not know. "Sure, we can be partners!" she said, putting that smile back onto her face. Gesturing to the seat next to her, she pulled out her parchment, which she did not do earlier, and a quill. "I really don't know you, do I?"

Well duh. She didn't even know his name!

As soon as the Hufflepuff started introducing herself Nancy started scribbling down the other girl's name. Cause it was important and all...and meant they could start calculating sooner. Hehe! "Nice to meet you, Arya." Yes, now that they had that covered, could they start now? Pweease? Yes?

Staring at the birthdate she had just noted down Nancy swallowed before glancing back up at the Hufflepuff. "Whoa...now I really feel old." There was a small smirk tugging at the corner of her lips, however, though it was still slightly shocking. She really was graduating this term, wasn't she? Scary. "Ooh, don't worry. I'm-" Awesome at Arithmancy? Okay, that probably sounded a little self-obsessed. "I'll help you. I'm sure you'll grow to love Arithmancy soon!" She beamed at the other girl before directing her gaze back down at her parchment.

"Now, first we'll calculate our Life Path Number, 'kay?" Nancy didn't wait for the other girl to reply but simply went on, "For that you first take the number of the month of birth, which in your case is 7." She gestured towards the 'July' part on her parchment. Obviously. "Then you add the day of birth, which would be 6." She wrote down what she had just explained. "Now, finally you add each individual number of the birth year together, which would be 2+0+5+9 which is 16, which again would be 1+6. Then finally you add those three numbers and reduce them which would give you in your case...2. So, your Life Path Number is 2." With that she grinned up at Arya again from her parchment.

7 + 6 + (2+0+5+9) --> 7 + 6 + 16 --> 7 + 6 + (1+6) --> 7 + 6 + 7
= 20 --> 2 + 0 = 2.
"Now, it's your turn." She leaned back slightly in her seat, waiting for the other girl to do the same thing. She would know if it was wrong...she knew her Life Path Number after all. Of course.

Gotcha! The girl agreed! Now Ced had someone to torture. Hehe. But the girl looked really feisty or well, intimidating. He had to make sure if she bites people for he didn't really want to have a big lesion on his hand or two pointed reddish dots on his neck. And yep, he was just being extra-precautionary.

"You sure umm, d-don't bi--" He trailed off, he just thought that it was going to be super silly if he ask the girl if she bites or not. And that was why he despised partnering with other people 'cause he couldn't be so certain if that person would be good or mean.

And he had to keep his 'cool'. Yeah. And he could do that by showing off how he good he was at Arithmancy, yep.

He wore his half-crooked smile again upon taking a seat beside the girl. "Great! We're now partners then."

But wait, how come the girl didn't know him? Hmm. Well, he wasn't popular so yeah, he shouldn't be expecting that most of the people around would know him.

"Oooh, you don't know me? I'm Ced. Cedric Nicholas Leone so... prepared to work?" He asked her coolly as he gently yet dramatically brushed his tangling hair away from his brows and eyes. And now, they should start working.

As Annie listened to the class continue, people answering questions about what Arithmancy, Core Numbers, Life Path and Expression Numbers, she was taking notes, and taking a quick glance at her textbook as she tried to at least think of her own results for a minute or two.

Just when she thought all was this close to be...a little harder, Annie found herself relieved that they were going to be doing exercises, after choosing a partner of course. Eep. Gladly, Annie barely knew everyone at the classroom. Taking a quick glance around with her notebook and textbook in hand, she waved: "Hey, does anyone need a partner? 'Cause I'm available..." She said, knowing that was a bit odd to do, but it was absolutely needed.

EEEk..getting to know people, not her greatest forte.

Ty needed a partner. After listening to the people speak about their core numbers, he had already begun to fidget in anticipation. Who knew what waited for him in the NUMBERS?

"Hey! I need a partner!" Ty raised his hand at the girl who had spoken, hoping she'd see him.

Yaya 05-13-2010 02:09 PM
ooc: I'll take a bit of time with your numbers, i'm about to head to school. :3

Annie turned around in the sound of a voice. It was a very young boy. She kind of blinked at the thought of working with a little one, since you know...she was now a fifth year. "Hey, alright...I'm Annie, and you are??" Right, she needed to meet the boy, but first...

"...I guess we should get to work!" She beamed to the boy and passed on a piece of parchment with her name and date of birth.

Note: I'll quote/offer specific advice later, but for now, y'all are doing great! <3 Just reminder for at least one thing I noted in my skimming, Expression number is your FULL NAME, Life Path number is your birthday. =)


Josephina walked around the room as the students were working heavily on their calculations. Some just started out and others seem to have finished. "If you've finished those two calculations, then please feel free to read the textbook interpretations to your partner and let them decipher if they fit. OR if you really want to, then you decide if they fit based on your observation of them." That was what she'd have done; but then again, she was an observer and not everyone was.

Noting a couple students seemed to not have partners, she decided to randomly partner two up. "Grayson Kelly and Jenessa Taylor? You two seem partnerless." She nodded at the two. "If anyone seems to not be able to find a partner, let me know." As I'm sure there is someone who you're just avoiding...

Rhea had been feverishly taking notes. She felt a bit disappointed that she hadn't been totally right but what did she expect? She was rubbish with Arithmancy. Oh well she wouldn't let it get her down. Not today. After writing down all the notes the professor asked them to partner up. She sighed. This was going to be a problem..maybe she should just do it on her own. However she decided to ask if there were no takers she would fly solo.
"Does anyone need a partner?"

Weasley174 05-13-2010 02:33 PM
Simon looked at the Professor.

"EEP" He was scared now, he had no partner and no idea how he was suppost to do what the Professor wanted him to.

"Professor, I don't have a partner." Simon said after raising his hand, he was still wondering how he was suppost to do something he didn't understand.

Daemon 05-13-2010 02:39 PM
Gotcha! :D

Grinning from ear to ear, Ty took his stuff and went to sit by the girl who introduced herself as Annie. "I'm Tyler, but call me Ty!" he nodded and arranged his things on the desk so that he could right.

"Yep! Let's GO!" he exclaimed excitedly, glad that An seemed to be just as excited about this as he was. Quickly scribbling down his name, Ty took her parchment as he passed her his.

Flipping open his book, Ty bit his lip as he concentrated.

"There! Your Destiny number is eight and your life path number is seven!!" Ty nodded excitedly at her, hoping he hadn't made any mistakes. Ooh, this was SO MUCH FUN.

Arya almost giggled at Nacy's comment, but instead just settled for a grin. "Your not that old." She looked at Nancy's birthday again and did the math. Hmm, she wasn't that old yet. Compared to the professor she was still young though. She relaxed a bit, so Nancy was apparently good at Arithmancy. Boy the jam she would have been in if they both had been bad in the subject. Grow to love Arithmancy? Obviously she didn't know that Arya planned to use her notes for roasting marshmellows when finals were over. Mmm boy, those were gonna be some tasty smores.

Listening as the Prefect spoke, she tried to work out the math as the older girl worked but she was moving faaast. Maybe she should have just watched first? Arya scribbled down her calculations while listening to Nancy, her head whipping between both of their parchements. When she had finished atempting to find Life Path Number, she frowned down at her parchement, scratching her head with her quill. "I don't think it's right." She showed Nancy her sloopy work.

And, done! With taking notes, of course. It was easy to mix up which number involved what, so Aiden had taken it down, just in case.

He glanced around the classroom. Hmm. Rhea still needed a partner as well, but they were supposed to find people they didn't know, right? Ah well. "Yeah, is there anyone who doesn't have a partner just yet?" Anyone, anyone? Bueller..

"Ty, nice to meet you. And thank you..." Annie greeted as she recieved the boy's piece of parchment to work with. My the boy was really smart. Annie hoped that sooner or later, she'd work better with numbers, her being a Ravvie and all that.

While Ty worked on her paper, she did the same. It was hard to concentrate when there were lots of numbers, pieces to fit and re-reading instructions from their textbooks.

Blinking a few times, and rechecking her work like four more, she turned to Ty to see that he was already done with hers. "You're fast." Annie said, giving him back his paper and taking her own.

"And here is your paper, Ty..." Annie said, "I hope I'm right with the calculations...it seems we have the same destiny number..." She mentioned.

She read her life path number and destiny number and quickly turned to her textbook to read what it said, to the four of them. Maybe then, they could help each other decipher what it actually said about them.

Cadence scribbled down all the notes she could as the Professor and four students explained about the numbers. This was going to be a fun class, she could tell. Then they had to find partners, someone they didn't know. Riiiight. Looking around she heard a boy asking if anyone needed a partner. He looked about her age, so... why not! "Hey! I need a partner!" she said waving at him and gathering her things up to walk over to him.

BanaBatGirl 05-13-2010 03:07 PM
"I don't have a partner yet," Fletcher calmly stated from where he'd slumped down in his seat. He even half-heartedly waved a hand about in the air to get the professor's attention. Merllllllllllin this class required an attention to detail that he wasn't sure he possessed.

And they were going to have to give out their full names. Nuhuh. That was as good a reason as any to remain partner-less.

MistressofDawn 05-13-2010 03:10 PM
Victoria looked at Etoile's numbers and then, glanced at her book. "Let see..."

Quote:
FOUR (4): Your path will lead you to work hard and systematically. You'll learn the benefis of loyalty and following the rules, all the while remaining loyal and steadfast. Reliability is key and once you've learned this lesson, you'll move on to the next phase - building for the long term. You're a born builder because security is a big deal for you. Others look to you to manage and control the situation. Career/vocation options include bookkeeping, accounting, and work where organization is valued - administration, education, business, etc.

FIVE (5): Your mission in life is to adjust, evolve, and advance. Your purpose is to embrace opportunity and autonomy and to follow your curiosity whever it leads you, all while using your resources and charm to keep you moving. Learning to express your ingenuity and being a free spirit will assist your movement toward your destiny. You're destined for liberation and freedom. Move forward and embrace change.
She smiled and showed it to Etoile. "Here's what your numbers mean, Etoile."

Aiden smiled as a Hufflepuff girl approached him. Good, so he wouldn't be partnerless! "Excellent. I'm Aiden, by the way," he introduced, while grabbing his quill. Ripping off a bit of spare parchment, he wrote down his full name and date of birth and listened for her name in return.

Wheee!!! She was finished too! Almost snatching the piece of paper from An, he saw to his delight (he's ALWAYS delighted, people) that they did indeed have the same Destiny number. "So, let's see what the book says," Ty groped excitedly for the textbook, reading almost hungrily.

... o_O "Er... I don't understand," Ty said, reading it over and over again before sighed and pouting slightly. Written words weren't really his thing. So, he moved on to the Life Path number and happened to catch sight of a mistake - or at least, he THOUGHT it was a mistake - on An's calculations.

Should he tell her? But she was so BIG. She could CRUSH him. She knew loads of spells!! "Er... An. . . There's... um... well, ahem... mistake? Maybe? I could be wrong!!" Ty added hurriedly, his eyes wide. "You, er, added it wrong... and didn't reduce it before adding it with the other numbers," he pointed to the parchment, towards where it said 13.

"Shouldn't that be sixteen? And then therefore seven? And then five plus seven would be 12 and so my life path number would be three? Maybe? I dunno!! I'm probably wrong, you're super smart I bet," Ty trailed off, REALLY hoping she wouldn't snap his head off.

He LIKED his head.

Alexandrie waved her hand, "I don't have a partner Professor." Alex wasn't the type to normally admit this but she couldn't tell who had partners and who didn't, so safer option was to tell the Professor so she'd assign the partnerless to each other. She did frown however she hated her middle name so maybe partnerless meant no would know.

sorry for the late reply!

He looked around expectantly at the other students to see that the swot of a Head Girl/Ravenclaw was already taken - by none other than Roxxy! Heh. The crafty little Lion. Celandine would have made a good partner. Nevermind. Now.. who else looked smart?

His gaze came to rest on a younger girl from his own house – one that he saw around the school all the time, but had never had any reason to speak to. She was writing stuff down - maybe she was smart. He shrugged, stood, and wandered over. “Hey...” Little Miss No Name. “... need a partner?” Grin.
Placing down her quill, Evelyn was just about to stretch when a shadow fell across her desk. Wha-

A partner? Well, that was quick. Even though she didn't really know the guy, she knew that he was in her house and, no that's all she knew. "Yes...I do." Picking up her quill again, she looked around, wondering where in the world he was supposed to sit since these desks really needed upgrading, and there were already people on either side of her which...

...meant she had to share her desk? Bleh.

Kate was disorientated, she hadn´t a partner and couldn´t see a student without one...so she decided to wait for one to be able.

"Purpose. Yes. Key points all covered. Thank you Destiny number." Not to be confused with Destiny person. Nope! These kids were all so creative in their descriptions though, Fina was slightly envious.



Nearly bursting out in amusement with Cedric started to introduce himself, Fina nodded as he quickly corrected himself into the point of view of a Heart Desire number. Very nice. "Yes, yes. Don't forget that this number also hints about your values."



Nodding at the fourth and final core number, she was about to agree when she frowned suddenly. "Consonant, you mean." She corrected the girl, with a soft smile. "But yes, precisely. The personality number basically describes the traits that people see. "


Nodding at each of the volunteers, she turned back to the class. "Let's give a hearty round of applause for their wonderful improvisation efforts on being a core number!" Clapping herself, she looked at each again. "Thank you. You may each take your seats again."

"We're now going to move onto the calculation part of the lesson. But to do this I want to make one thing clear; we're all not perfect. I don't expect you to be perfect in your calculations, but I do expect you to try." Josephina explained, laying out the ground rules for calculations. "I understand math isn't all your strongpoints, which is also completely fine. But again, just try. Focus and concentrate, as there is no rush. We'll be starting with the Life Path and Destiny numbers at first."

Flicking her wand at the board, more writing appeared;

Life Path Number
DOB: 2 April 2044
4 + 2 + (2+0+4+4)
4 + 2 + 10
4 + 2 + 1

Life path number = 7

Expression/Destiny Number
Full Name: Josephina Faith Hadley
J O S E P H I N A______F A I T H___H A D L E Y
1+6+1+5+7+8+9+5+1 6+1+9+2+8 8+1+4+3+5+7
(43) + (26) + (28)
7 + 8 + 10
7 + 8 + 1
16/7

Expression/Destiny Number = 7


"Special considerations are to please make sure you add and reduce each component up first before totaling. For instance, I added all the numbers up in my first name, Josephina, to be 43 and then reduced it to 7 before adding that to the reduced digit for my middle and last names," Fina explained, pointed it out to the students. While chances are it shouldn't make a difference, it was best to be consistent and follow that format regardless.

"One more thing before you go ahead and calculate the Destiny and Life Path Numbers. I want you to each partner up with someone you do not know at all or very well. I don't want to see best friends or significant others be partners. And I want you to exchange names and birthdates and calculate each others' numbers." Why? Because it is easy to calculate your number and make it fit for you, but calculating someone else's is a whole different ballpark. "Any questions, please ask me."



***

OOC Notes:
  • Find a partner you don't know
  • Exchange full names and birthdates
  • Calculate your partners' expression and life path numbers
  • Read the textbook interpretation and determine accuracy
  • When done, do NOT chat Unless you want MORE points lost *eyes* I won't hesitate to do it either, but rather sit quietly / don't post and wait for me to post up the next two numbers
  • Don't go ahead and calculate the other numbers [in here] before I post up instructions.
  • Have fun with the interpretations!
  • Questions? Ask me ^__^
  • Finally, there is a good chance I won't be back to continue with the lesson until Midnight EST tonight, the 13th? 5am GMT on the 14th, so no rush. <3


Iris listened to the volunteers pretend to be the Core Numbers, and it was a good job too, because she'd forgotten the most of them. She listened to the Professor (Whose name Iris couldn't remember. Oops.) explain what they were doing, Hmm. A stranger. Fair enough. That would just make working the Life Path number and Destiny Number more fun, because there was nothing for you to work on.

It would be like pretending to be one of those Muggle fortune tellers that you see in the really old muggle movies and stories. hehe.

Getting up from her seat, she sighed and shrugged at Jimbo, "Sorry, Mate; I can't work with you. I know you too well."

And then walked over to a student who looked pretty partner-less, "Hi, I'm Iris. Do you need a partner?" She asked them cheerfully.

Well, you may as well be cheerful. Arithmancy was like Divination for SMART people. What wasn't there to be cheerful about?

Maybe he could pay her a visit in her office. The seventh year leaned back in his chair and looked around. Of course his obvious choice for a partner was some pretty girl.

....... and of course that girl had to be Gold.

"Fire." He smirked at her. "Want to partner up?" Come to think of it he didn't even know her middle name. Because of course the only thing he knew about her was that she was always super annoyed by him and would punch him if she felt like it. Though she probably wouldn't now. In class.

So he had taken his chance.

The nerve of Xylon Saar!

"I know you a little too well," Gold said, rather pointedly. Of course, she did not really. But the fact that Mr. Muscles was a constant nuisance and an even more constant flirt, was enough to ensure that she did not even think of consenting, to his offer. Not in a million years. Please!

It was at that precise moment, that a Slytherin - by her robes - walked over to her. "That sounds lovely," Gold said, pleasantly.

Rawr for a nice partner.
