In the Biosci

I couldn't find the bathroom. There happened to only be one in the whole building. herm

There are quite a few emails that I need to write....like, really soon. And I keep putting them off because although I do love reading emails, it takes quite a bit more motivation to write them, and I just can't be bothered.

And basically I am wasting a little bit of time in order to meet someone at a certain place at a delegated time.

There is a deaf girl that I copy notes from when I miss my chemistry class. Today I asked for notes, as usual, and she forgot her hearing aid. Another fact that I should point out is that she has this guy copy notes for her and I have never figured out if he is actually in the class or not:

"Hi, um, I was hoping maybe if you have the lecture notes from monday I could copy them?"
Claire smiles
"Yes?" She looks at me blankly, then the guy
"Oh, um, see-" I start to stutter
"Notes!" He yells at her
She's still smiling (such a sweet girl btw) "Oh yes notes, now from what day?"
"Oh well, um, fro-from MONDAY!" I feel uncomfortable yelling at her even after a whole semester because there are always other people around. I get a little self-conscience saying things twice. They always sound stupider the second time around no matter what it is.
"okay okay, right, I have those, yeah?! But I have lab yeah!?" She has to yell to hear herself.
"Oh well, whenever is good for you. I can do them some other time"
She turns to the guy and smiles. Her and the guy start to have a yelling match about a guy that he thought he saw, but really didn't. They are both laughing at the end of it, as I stare at the scuffs on my shoes.
As he is leaving the room I ask really loudly, "Is he in Organic chemistry?" He heard me, she didn't. I turn red. She hands me the notes and smiles-
"What? I forgot my hearing aid!!"
"I'll be quick!" I yell before running up the stairs and out of sight.

Really, she's so nice, I just don't know how to act in such a situation.
