Okay, so, as awesome as break was? Getting back to her room was a bit of a downer. Petey was still in Sokka's care, and there was a letter on her desk from her roommate. Who ... wasn't gonna be her roommate any more. Man, that sucked. Yay for Ella, since it sounded like a good kinda thing for her (engaged? seriously? AWESOME!) but she'd miss her ( Read more... )

It was Newbie Day! Okay, Newbie Day was yesterday, but that made it Newbie Weekend. All the fun of Newbie Day, but it lasted all weekend! Really!
