Merry Kurisamasu Gen Ryu!
Oishi Yogi of the Leaf Village
Li Nanshin the turkey cried as she reached the Hidden Stone Village. She had traveled to the village once before, but had thus far not been rewarded with any turkey treats. She should have taken her mother's advice and gone to college. She had applied to a few state schools like Lightning State University and North Central Bean University, but had declined enrolling as she had doubts about the value of going to such places. She had been discouraged from applying to more prestigious schools due to her poor grades in Bird School. In her defense she had been under immense social stress at home during her high school years.
What could she major in even if she decided to go back to school? The bird pondered this as she looked to see if she could make out anyone who looked like a 'Gen Ryu' nearby. Art? No, she was awful in the arts. She had a cousin who made a decent living as an actuary, but she found no passion in that. She could always get a business degree, but there was an glass ceiling that kept birds from rising into anything more than lower middle management.
