Amara: Excuse me, is this seat free?

Leo: Sure, go ahead. Careful, the coffee here is strong enough to wake the dead.

Amara: That’s exactly what I need. I’m Amara, by the way. First year, Business.

Leo: Leo. First year, Art History. Well… officially.

Amara: Officially?

Leo: Yesterday I sat in the wrong lecture for forty minutes. Advanced Organic Chemistry.

Amara: Forty minutes? Didn’t you notice anything strange?

Leo: I noticed there were a lot of hexagons on the slides. I thought it was modern art.

Amara: Okay, that’s worse than my first day. I got lost looking for the library and ended up in the staff car park. Twice.

Leo: The campus map is useless. It looks like a plate of spaghetti.

Amara: Did you go to the freshers’ fair?

Leo: Oh yes. I signed up for six societies.

Amara: Six? Which ones?

Leo: Photography, film, debating, underwater hockey, the Cheese-Tasting Society and… something called Extreme Ironing.

Amara: Extreme ironing? What’s that?

Leo: No idea. But they had free pizza.

Amara: That’s how they get you! I only joined the volunteering club. I want to keep my evenings free for studying.

Leo: Studying? It’s week one!

Amara: My first assignment is due in three weeks. Two thousand words on marketing.

Leo: Three weeks is ages. That’s practically next year.

Amara: That’s what everyone says. Then suddenly it’s the night before and you’re living on coffee and biscuits.

Leo: Fair point. So how’s your flat? Do you get on with your flatmates?

Amara: They’re lovely, but one of them labels everything in the fridge. Even individual eggs.

Leo: Seriously?

Amara: Seriously. „Property of Daniel. Do not touch.” On an egg.

Leo: Mine is the opposite. Nobody washes anything. We have one clean spoon left, and we take turns.

Amara: Sounds like you need a cleaning rota.

Leo: Or more spoons.

Amara: Look, why don’t we start a study group? Just one evening a week. We can keep each other on track.

Leo: Great idea. On one condition.

Amara: What’s that?

Leo: You come to the Cheese-Tasting Society with me on Thursday.

Amara: Deal. But if it turns into extreme ironing, I’m leaving.
