Kagome dropped her pencil, rocked back in her seat, shot her arms out and took a big stretch, her deep breath of relaxation soon turned to a sigh, which in turn soon became a yawn.
It really had been a long week.
Kagome couldn't really say it was the usual, as there's nothing typical or normal about going back in time to the feudal era, saving a village from the wrath of an evil demon usually possessing the body of a local lord, all with the help of her friends, Inuyasha, a sometimes arrogant half demon, Shippo, a childlike fox demon, Miroku, a monk who was typically described as being lecherous, Sango, a demon slayer, and, of course, Kirara, their two-tailed catlike companion, but the whole scenario was beginning to seem average, as that's what usually happened on her adventures in the feudal era...
Meanwhile, in the real world, Kagome thought cynically, picking up her pencil again and returning to her Geometry homework, life still goes on without me.
Kagome didn't mind having to go back and stay in the feudal era for a few days, but she had constantly been returning there now to do battle with Naraku and other malevolent demonic forces for almost a year now.

And Grandpa always made sure that he had a new excuse ready to use whenever he was questioned on her whereabouts by the school, her friends, or even Houjo.
And Souta... Kagome was beginning to feel really bad for her little brother. Poor Souta had to find out all of Kagome's homework and evade any questions of his own he might recieve by Kagome's curious friends... even still, Kagome was noticing that lately, Souta wasn't himself.
