Guidance Counselor's Office, Monday
Karolina had missed the picnic due to an unexpected case of villainy back in LA early on Saturday. She'd only gotten in town late last night, but, hey! Mondays were a good time to get started on a new thing. And for this new thing, coming to see her new office for the first time seemed like the best way to start, so here she was.
She had never had an office before.
It was weird. But also exciting! She'd barely gotten in the door, but already she was considering the possibilities in how to re-decorate it. She wanted to make it a little more inviting – something that students wouldn't find, like, intimidating or anything like that. A place where you could just drop in without it being a big deal, because she knew from personal experience how hard it was sometimes to approach adults who were Obligated to Care about your crap. She wanted to fight that, and make her office a place where you could --
-- admire a drawing of Nyan Cat in a corner on the wall?
Huh.
Okay, it was kind of a weird thing, but Karolina found that she actually liked it. She was definitely going to bring something in a rainbow print into the office, anyway. And nothing else already in the room seemed very inspiring to her eye. As she went around the desk and took a seat behind it and started opening the drawers, all she found was piles of old paperwork (some of which looked like it had been at some point folded up into paper planes) and... a 1000-piece puzzle in a box?
So guess now she knew what guidance counselors did when they were bored. And on that note, she also looked into the mini fridge by the desk. It was empty, except for a single bottle of something called Green Lamp Ale. A post-it was stuck to the side of it. All it said was Good luck.
Karolina was going to take that at face value.
She leaned back in her chair some, and snapped a picture of the room on her phone - and promptly texted that off to Jim:
OH MY GOD I have an OFFICE!!
[ooc: Open! Yay Karolina!]
