So college didn't quite work out.

Why not?

I lost my temper. They frown on that.

Most people do.

Frowning or getting angry?

Both.

Their loss.

What do you plan to do then?

Try again somewhere else, probably. Just because one world has jerks running their universities doesn't mean another won't.

What do you plan to do after college?

Whatever I feel like.

Sounds like a plan.

Shouldn't be caught without at least one.

Not many people know that.

The blind leading the visually challenged.

That's how it's always been.

Which makes it amusing for the rest of us.

Entertaining at least.

At the very least.

...

Name's Kaileigh.

Finvarra. Fin.

Nice to meet you, Fin.

Likewise, Kaileigh.

... Where are you from, anyways?

A galaxy far, far away.

Really?

Really.

Haven't heard that one before.

Not from Earth?

I have run into people from everywhere, but all were from Earth.

Popular tourist destination.

So it is seeming.

You don't think so?

I don't have an opinion of it.

That's unfortunate. Maybe something else will?

Or I could try again somewhere else.

Yep. There's always new opportunities.

And over 4000 colleges and universities. If you're just counting in the US.

That was the plan.

Sounds like a sound plan.

Good luck, for your second go at it.

Third.

Well, even better. You now know twice as much about what mistakes to not make again.

Or which ones to repeat.

Of course. Though when you make them consciously, they're no longer really mistakes are they, even if others may see them as such?

Couldn't say one way or the other.

That's a shame.

It is. Dad's been giving me the 'disappointed' look.
