Little Fox | ½ of Lauralie | Ravenclaw with a Hufflepuff heart and a Gryffindor soul | #HouseNATARIANA Tessa had quite the love-hate relationship with Astronomy. She loved the idea of it - it was quite fascinating, really - but when it came to the theoretical side, with maths and everything, she switched off. She didn't want to, believe her! She wanted to learn about the vast world around them, but...
Never mind that. She was distracting herself with thoughts about how good it would be to fly out into the universe -- maybe she had been trapped inside for too long. Imagine, though! Freely floating about the universe, observing everything. That would be fun. And it would be practical, hands-on experience!
Shame it wasn't possible.
The seventh year brought her attention back to Professor Sandhu. Mr Kepler..... She tried to remember the things she had learnt before she had dropped Astronomy at NEWTs level. Uh... Nope. Nada. She could only remember the barest of facts. Everything was too wordy, which all the maths and physics. She raised her hand anyway and said what she remembered. "He discovered the area and harmonic laws, right? But he didn't call them laws at the time, I think. There was another one, too..." She trailed off. That would have to do. Streeeeeetch.
Oh, how she longed to fly. |
