Hoshi and Joan's apartment, Thursday evening

[itsjustlanguage]

Hoshi wasn't entirely sure where the month had gone. The first few weeks of university had been exciting, but also full of surprises. She had scored high enough on placement tests that they had put her in classes with second and third-year students. Hoshi was flattered, but she felt rather intimidated when she was around all the older students.

At least she was able to do some of her coursework online, which was really convenient. At the moment, she was sitting on the couch with a data PADD. Half of her attention was on a translation for her Latin class, and the rest was trying to figure out this Twitter thing that everyone seemed to be talking about.

[So very open for calls, emails, texts and tweets!]

Hinata had to laugh a little.

"D-Did you want the honest answer, or the one I am... trying to convince myself of?"

Hoshi chuckled. "I'll tell you what. If you're honest with me, I'll be honest with you," she said.

"Worried," she admitted, flushing at saying so. "My father is coming tomorrow for Parent's Weekend and I fear I have not--best pleased him in the last while."

"Sounds familiar," said Hoshi. "I went to see my mother right before moving into the apartment, and we ended up fighting all over again over what I wanted to do versus what she thought I should be studying. At least my dad is more understanding, but it wasn't easy when he showed up for graduation."

"Parents," she said, with a sigh. "Never seem to be easy. How are you doing, Hoshi?"

"Things have been good, but just a little bit scary at the same time," said Hoshi. "The university allowed me to place out of all the freshman classes, but I feel out of place with all these older students."
