Organic chemistry, Bri decided, was clearly the work of the devil. Math and science classes were not her friend. Sure, she always managed to pull off a pretty spectacular grade, but she had to work really, really hard for those. You couldn't just BS your way through those exams. You had to actually know things.
Which is probably why the day after Thanksgiving, when lost of people were out shopping, found her curled up on a sofa in the living room of her parents' house, buried deep in chapter twenty of her Organic Chem text, trying to wrap her brain around the material. Finals were growing close and she didn't feel nearly prepared enough. Having her first relationship - and a long distance one, at that - had an adverse effect on her study habits and she felt like she was paying for that now.
She was determined to make up for it, though. She was going to ace this exam if it killed her! Maybe that seemed a little extreme, but she'd be sending in med school applications really soon and no matter how perfect her GPA was now, one little slip up could just ruin her whole future.
Or, that's how it worked in the world of Bri Grey, little miss obsessed with rules and the perfect report card. She felt a little bad for studying so hard when there was family to spend time with. Especially when the house was full of extended family, too, but she reasoned that with so many people around, it would be alright if she sat off to herself a bit.
