Default Mini activity / question 2 catchup! and very start of main activity XD

So Skylar had spotted two flight patterns, hovering and a gliding pattern... but surely there had to be more. And then all of a sudden, why hadn't she seen it before? But as she was glancing around at her fellow classmates she spotted it: The V formation. Had that just appeared out of nowhere or was it something she just noticed?

Professor Vance started talking about the patterns though and Skylar just swallowed. Retrace her steps? Well, this was awkward because she rather didn't WANT to retrace those steps. Unless, she needed to backtrack to figure out her mistakes to move forward? Which might explain the V formation she spotted, because trusting her friends ... yes, she needed to do this. Those friends who stood by her, she needed to trust their input in order to forge ahead.

And just then, she saw it... the birds changed flight and started going all over the place in direction. Was that? Actually, this made sense, because despite everything, being surprised by where her life took her and just let nature take its course was going to be the best route now. Just like that, she had her four flight patterns and they were discussing augureys? Specifically, Augureys and their ability to predict the weather/rain.

"Perhaps, they could be useful in helping to determine one's next big life decision? Like, where you should go could emulate the flight pattern? Are you just gliding through life, hovering. Are you living in the past? Do you rely on your friends to get you by? Or are you just truly living in the present, taking each day as the gift that it is and just letting the days bring you surprises?"

And it was time to use Susie to put Ornithomancy to use. First things first, she needed to form the words 'yes' and 'no' on the ground with the plastic letters.

SPOILER!!: Notes

- Hovering: you should back track and retrace your steps
- Glide: A clear path ahead
- V Formation: you should value and trust your friends
- Zig-Zag: you should let yourself be surprised by the direction your lives takes
