Two older, one much younger." "Oh, right." Norah replied and tried to let Simon's words act as a sort of comfort, though it didn't work too well at the moment. She had had strict instructor's before, but she'd time to get used to them all. "Guess I'll just take things as they come then." Really though, there was no other way to deal with things. "I never understood why a school would want to encourage any sort of competition between students." Norah said questioningly and flipped open the topmost book on her pile, which was an astronomy one. "There wasn't anything like that at my other school." Simon continued to laugh at her comment, happy to see he hadn't weirded her out. "You don't have to," he said with a smile. "Probably best," he added in agreement with a nod as Norah talked of playing the professor issue by year. It really was trial and error for the most part for even the toughest professors had favorites. No one could be certain of how things went until they'd had a few classes with each of the people in question. "You know I don't really know myself," Simon admitted with a shrug. " Its just been that way as long as I and my brother were in school and before then. Though it does create a connection within the houses as well so I guess it could be a case of a little give and take," he mused absently noting her open one of her books. "Anything interesting?"
