She was taken aback by the student approaching her, in the midst of things - and nodded. "Alright, we'll speak after class," She noted, and watched a few more students filed into the classroom. Victoria ignored Gray's comment, feeding into them wasn't going to make the beginning of this semester any easier. She began to pass out papers and lay them on the students desk, the grand old Syllabus - Victoria personally thought they were waste of trees, but it was required by the school for her to pass them out. As she approached the small group of chattering students, she handed each one standing a syllabus. "Please take your seat, I'll be starting class now," She smiled warmly, and turned on her heel - placing the papers back onto her desk and walking towards the center of the classroom.
"Okay class," Her voice boomed rather loudly, "Please take your seats, I'll hold to my promise if you hold to yours". Her eyes looked towards the clock, "I'll am asking is for....45 minutes of your precious school time - all eyes on me, pretend you're listening if you have too. But your first test is next Friday..." She pushed a lock of hair behind her ear, and gestured towards the map behind her. "I'm not sure about you all, but I love the earth - we have been blessed with so much to see, and so little time...." She walked over to the world map, rolling it back up above the whiteboard - then strolled over to the light switch, flipping the lights off and turning the projector on with a remote she had. It panned onto the whiteboard, the first image being an image of Sunset Cliffs in California, the sun was setting deep shades of pink, purples, and golds painted the sky. "I'm sure you all are intelligent enough to know the definition of Geography...so we're going to jump into how the universe affects the earth. The moon and tides, solar energy..." She flipped through a couple more pictures of beaches, lakes, and deep canyons as she walked over towards her desk. "We'll be mapping areas, learning latitude, longitude, how to find your if you're ever lost...maybe - hopefully, we can talk the Academy into letting you guys go on a hiking fieldtrip". Her eyes stayed on the pictures as she began to go over the tides, leaving time for students to take advantage of her blindspot.
