Hi are you there?
Yeah, I am here now!
Oh hallelujah! How's your day been ice?
It has been great, Ani! I have taken two tests for classes and they both went really well! How has your day been?
It's been great! I took one test today already, and am studying to take another one soon. Isn't finals week the best?
Haha, it is nice in a lot of ways. It's nice to be done with classes, and finals this semester are going so smoothly - I can't complain. The prompt has got me thinking. Did you have a superpower you always wanted when you were a kid?
It is a rather intriguing prompt isn't it...
I thought teleporting would be the coolest, and I have to say that it only seems more and more convenient as I get older. It would be nice to be able to visit anywhere! And to be able to travel to see my parents (10 hours away) or my inlaws (a 6 hour flight away) on a whim and without all the travel time.
That would be amazing! As a child, I wanted to fly, but really flying seems like a lot of effort. Transportation is definitely more effecient. efficient
Haha, I'm glad you agree. Some people think mind reading would be cool, but I think social interactions are better as they are now. Do you have any fun plans for the weekend, or is your time dominated by finals?
I totally agree with the mind-reading, as well! What would be the point of conversing if you already know how the conversation would go?
Yeah, it would be strange. It seems right for people to get to choose what they think and what they say too, without losing their ability to choose because of someone else.
I don't have any plans, sadly. I really should though to break up the steady stream of finals in my future. What about you?
Nothing specific, really. I recently found a new Netflix show that I like and might watch that as a break when I get home from campus tonight. It's a game show where people compete on a complicated obstacle course, and it was fun to see how well everyone could do. A friend is going to bring me a book I have been wanting to read too, so I will get to start that! I'm looking forward to that too. What about after finals? Do you have a reward waiting, like food or something fun?
Oh is the game show called America Ninja Warrior? I apologize for my momentary absence, I was briefly reviewing some material for my final. After finals I get to go home, and that is reward enough. I'll be able to get more than 5 hours of sleep, for the first time in several months!
It's called the Ultimate Beastmaster, which sounded funny to me at first, but is cooler than its funny name. It's a lot like Ninja Warrior. No worries! I totally get that. I'm taking a little bit of a break from studying myself. 5 hours of sleep isn't very much! You must have really been working hard this semester
Yeah, hopefully the hard work pays off, too! I think I've heard of the Ultimate Beastmaster
I hope it does too. And cool! It's kind of a random show, but worth a watch if you don't have anything else to do!
