Rubbing the sleep out of her eyes, Emily persevered. It was getting late again, but she was almost done... almost complete... she just..... needed.... to....
WAKE UP!, yelled her subconscious.
...She just needed to finish off her last recordings.
Standing up and closing the distance to her telescope she began to search the night sky for yet another constellation. Her concentration was breifly disrupted by the arrival of Professor Descoteux and Professor Bishop... interesting.
CONSTELLATIONS! yelled the voice in her head again...
"Ursa Major", she said returning to her seat after identifying the group of stars. After flicking through her text book Emily grabbed her quill and perched her notebook on her lap.
SPOILER!!: Emily's Notebook
11:35
Ursa Major: is latin for Larger Bear, though the constellation Ursa Major is also known as Great Bear. Ursa Major is usually recognisable as the Big Dipper is part of its composition. The Big Dipper is also a usefull constellation for navigation as it is a good indicator of North.
Ursa Major is one of the few constellations mentioned in the Holy Bible. This constellation also has its own significant cultural meanings in a variety of countries including South Korea, Burma, Finland, India and the Americas.
If Emily was going to be completely honest with herself, she didn't think that Ursa Major made a very good bear... perhaps a stick insect would have been more appropriate.
One more... though Emily as she looked at the half page of her notebook/journal remaining.
Returning her attention to the night sky and her telescope Emily thought about returning to bed.... yes bed... in her nice warm dormitory...
But alas she knew she was almost done, and that way she wouldn't have to come back up here for some time.
Looking through the lense of the very nicely cleaned telescope- she had done a good job- she looked for Cassiopeia. Ajusting the bearings on her telescope she tried again.
"Cassiopeia", she murmered to herself- yawning as she did so.
Emily closed her notebook. Finally content with the work she had done. She then proceeded to pack up her things and went to put her telescope away.
