"For a better GPA next semester!" they all shouted as they're clinking their glasses together (most filled with tea because it was the first day of school the next day!).

What started as an attempt to make the whole class grow closer, becomes a biannual tradition. Usually, it's done after the final exams. You know, to party and doll yourself up a little after inelegantly poring over pages of thick books. This time, because of the wildly different holiday plans, it became a "pre-semester dinner to gather enough power to get through the semester" instead of a Christmas dinner.

"Pfft, what's the fun in that! Anyways, open this later, 'kay?" then starting with Ten, everybody squealed some more. 

The night went on longer than expected. Albeit knowing they would have an early class the next day, they prolonged the night by going to noraebang and eating some more greasy junk food with the excuse of being young and still having top-notch metabolism - nothing an extra dose of caffeine can't solve. Alas, the night still has to end. The girls' parents have started calling them to go home ASAP. After finishing their last bites of ice cream, the group split into their usual carpooling arrangement.

"Bye guys! See you tomorrow!" Sera bade every
