The day after...

So the winter dance wasnt so bad, even though I ended up going by myself. Was a little surprised by how many people showed up, and im still wondering if anyone knows I spiked the punch. Saw some familiar faces and met some new students too. I have to admit though, the contest for king and queen were nothing but a joke. What a let down. But the music was cool, the punch was flowing and I think i even hallucinated a bit because I swear....no seriously, I saw the pillsbury dough boy! Come on guys dont laugh. Anyways the high point of my night was meeting two great new students that I cant wait to hang out with more.. Hey Knee, hey Isaac.... oh not to mention the "STREAKING PART!!!!"
Still with all the classes and partying ...and hot guys, i miss home. I hope Kyline is feeling better. Guys send some love my sister Kys way, I think shes taking my parents split harder than I am. I dont think shes made back to campus for at least a week.
So gymnastics tryouts today, im so tired from last night though, im really considering canceling. After the parties last night, I grabbed a shower...ahem with a friend, and figured i would just rest up for the night, but I just couldnt sleep. The campus was a mess, students were all over the place, so I figured i'd head to the guesthouse my dad had built next to the main house. The way I figure if I catch him early enough in the day I can get him to help me load the gymnastics equipment and drop me off at campus. Well for now...sleep.

Arwens Diaries: Changing Times

Dear Diary

As i look out my dorm room window, the rain drums against the glass like the beating of a drum. The seasons have turned, and summer is but a memory, on the plus side, being British, I'm used to the rain.

Its been just over a month since i arrived at KSU, and a lot has passed. The sorority house and frat house have rushed and the new members chosen.

Classes are starting up, and getting into progress, my favourite being music theory, I'm still hoping for more creative classes to start. which reminds me, i still have my homework to do.

On a personal topic, My girlfriend asked me to marry her and i said yes!, We're hoping for a winter wedding, but planning it is taking a while, so it might be finished by the time we're 90, our carers can push us down the aisle.

Haunted: Part 2

As the lights from Kindly State University faded in the distance and my bike picked up speed on the highway, I was headed towards the town of Kindly. Kindly was what they called a one Starbucks town, but its where i called home, at least for the next four years of college.

As was usual with small towns in the southern part of California, the majority of the towns adult population travelled to the city to find work. This often lead to a ghost town effect as the local businesses closed for the night.

I recalled the phone call I'd received from the owner of Club Lust. They had received a anonymous phone call requesting that they contact me with utmost urgency, the caller giving details of a contact point where i was to receive an important package, had then hung up leaving no further details or his or her identity.

Armed with no further details as to who my mysterious caller was or what the package contained, I decided to investigate. They say curiosity killed the cat, but that must have been one unlucky cat.

I decided to make a detour to the club first, Club Lust was located in the bad part of town, though in a town the size of Kindly, the bad part of town was only half a block away from the good part.

I pulled up in the parking lot of the club and got off my bike. The club seemed noisier than was usuall, as I walked up to the entrance of the club, i spotted a poster advertising a battle of the bands event. As the only entertainment in Kindly, Club Lust catered to all ages, apparently it also catered to all music tastes, which was the case tonight.

I pushed open the doors and strode into the club, stopping in fear at what i laid my eyes on. It seems the battle of the bands had attracted all the musicians of the surrounding towns as well as from Kindly itself. the stage was full of bands setting up their equipment, as the first of the bands began to practice, i winced and aimed towards the bar.

At the bar, i ordered a virgin screwdriver and settled myself on a stool, waiting for the bartender to notice me. As i caught his glance, i gave him my "nails down the chalkboard" smile, watching as he paled under my glare. "What do you want?" he asked, "So what can you tell me about the package?" I asked while drumming my fists on the bar.

"Nothing honest!" he stammered nervously. I raised an eyebrow and waited for him to continue "Okay Okay, I'll tell you, but he's going to kill me. A stranger came into the club asking about you, he said he knew you and to pass on a message for him" He stopped suddenly. "And the message was?"

I gave him a withering glare and waited for him to continue. "Fine... He said that there was something you needed to know about the college, and that the package contained all the answers.. that's all i know honest!" I grabbed the bartender by the collar and pulled him close "If i find out you lied to me, you wont have to worry about the stranger" I let go of the collar and watched him scramble backwards out my reach.

I finished my drink and laid a dollar on the bar before standing up and storming out of Club Lust before any more of the bands could begin playing. Back outside,I got back on my bike and sped away from the club, heading towards the pickup point of the package awaiting me.

Lost Souls

Dear Diary

This weekend was quite the event. My girlfriend Carey, proposed to me last night in front of my parents and my family. We're still going to live with my parents when we're not on campus and once we finish college, look to getting our own place.

I'm thinking of a winter wedding, although its not long till christmas, i want to spend our first christmas together in wedded bliss. Carey wants a murderdoll song called Kill the bride as our wedding march song, I can imagine how many grey hairs the ceremony will bestow on my parents.

I'm trying to talk her into signing up for college too, so we can share a dorm room and have classes together, although i'm not sure whether during study periods whether much homework would get done.

I've been so distracted this past weekend that i still dont have my cheer done, or my music homework done, or my sociology homework done. The professors are going to kill me, and theres no way i'm going to be able to join the cheer squad now, but Roberta said she was thinking of starting an ice skating team and asked if i wanted to help, and i said sure, since when i was a kid, i was always on the ice, or on the race track.

I'll write soon as there appears to be something tickling my feet ^_^

Rosie's Diaries: Living the Dream

Well, now I've done it. It's high time I get the opportunity to tryout for cheerleading. We have lived and breathed it for most of our lives and now I'm finally getting my opportunity to further my cheering at Kindly. I'm really nervous and excited about this! And I hope with my application and pictures I'm really showing my best!

Saving a copy of my pictures and application here until I can add it to my scrap book.

Name: Rosie Shark

SL Age: 18

Other clubs at KSU you're a member of:
*none yet! But I hope to join the drama club and one day I'll get my nerve up to pledge Delta!

Why do you want to be a KSU cheerleader?
*Because cheer=LIFE :D Plus, I rock it with the pom poms! I want to make magic happen and be a part of an award-winning team! I see cheer as my way of getting though to all our fellow students... bringing spirit, fun, and passion to those who are bleh. Oh, and helping inspire our athletes to achieve great victories through the cadence of yelling voices and the wearing of short skirts.

Why would you be an asset to our squad?
*I'm dedicated and love anything to do with a team. I may not have the availabilty to be on as much at the right times as other girls, but what I lack in scheduling flexibility, I more than make up for in S-P-U-N-K! :D I've had extensive cheer experience, after convincing my mom at an early age that I didn't want to be a part of the child beauty pageant scene. Four years of cheer at Laguna Beach High School in California polished off my already superb cheer skills and I learned not only to live CHEER, but to love it! I bring my enthusiasm and my skill, as well as my superb balance, my ability to work as part of a team, and my sparkling white smile!

If accepted to the squad you would need to purchase a 500L cheer hud, as well as hair and shoes if you did not have any that met our requirements. Would this be a problem?
*Not at all. Prolly have enough hair that would be sufficient! Haha.

Picture time! We all know cheerleaders gotta be cute so send us your three best photos!

**I'm also sending you a copy of my certificate from Woodward West!

Thank you for your consideration :) I am currently working hard practicing so I will be able to do my best at tryouts!

Haunted

Arwen Hykova took a deep breath of the night air and exhaled happily. Autumn in Kindly. The air was fresh, the grass was growing - and the fraternity were hunting.

Then again, they never really do stop hunting, do they? Its not like they have game wardens or anything ....

"Now theres a job I'd like to see, " she muttered, turning the corner and walking down a side street. "I'm sorry, frat boy but your permits expired. Oh, yeah gotta remember that line."

The light from the streetlights overhead was barely enough to cut the shadows, but she moved with perfect confidence. Muggers were not high up on Arwen Hykova's list of Things to Worry About.

Top of the list at that precise moment was how she was going to explain to her parents that she'd got yet another F. Arwen knew that she'd studied for that exam, but the knowledge had left her, and now she was paying the price. "Another evening spent with my nose in the books" She sighed turning the corner that lead to the library.

The streets of the campus were deserted, as the student body were all gathered in the main events hall, watching and competing for a place amongst the soccer team. As she passed the arts centre she noticed painting on the wall a graffiti tag belonging to the small time gang at KSU. "Vandals", she cursed under her breath as she rolled her eyes and carried on walking, making a mental note to report it to the administration.

A gust of biting wind hit Arwen as she approached the library, huddling under her jacket , she sighed and wished she could be back home in front of a fire. Lifting her satchel back onto her shoulder she muttered "Just call me study girl"

Arwen pushed open the heavy wooden doors that lead to the library building and walked along the corridor towards the book stacks. A faint sound drifted along the corridor, pushing her shoulders back and regrouping her senses, she approached the source.

As with most libraries, its was usually abandoned, so to find a presence there was unusual. Moving slowly towards the source, being careful not to alert her presence, she spotted a stranger hunched over a pile of books. She hadn't seen him in her part of town before, but she was in need of company, and her spidey senses weren't tingling of danger.

"Are all women on campus as good looking as you" said the stranger with a laughing tone in his voice. "Are all boys pickup lines as bad as yours?" I zinged back. The stranger laughed and introduced himself "Hi, I'm Oz, I'm new to Kindly State, I arrived last night"

"Arwen" I said introducing myself, while sneaking glances at the newcomer. He was cute, if you like the tall dark and handsome type, I'd have to remember to get his number.

"How long have you been at KSU" Oz asked making small talk. "Since the semester started" I replied, before offering to give him the ten cent tour. As we set off on our magical mystery tour, him trying to hide the fact that his gaze kept straying to my butt and me pretending not to notice. We stopped in the campus cafe, with him stopped just before rushing into me. "I wasn't staring at your butt" Oz said before lowering his gaze to the floor. I smirked and made a mental note to buy more skintight jeans.

As we continued our journey, i briefed Oz on the rules of campus life, both socially and in regard to dorm room regulations. My cell phone rang just as we reached Nicolos pizzeria. It was my aunt Shadee, manager of a club just outside of town called Club Lust. She requested my presence urgently.

I sighed before telling Oz that I had to leave, but promising to resume the tour at a later date, before scribbling my number on a piece of paper and passing it to him before sprinting to the car park where my bike was stored. As i sped away from KSU, i wondered what was so urgent that it required me leaving, Mr tall dark and broody so quickly.

Who doesn't love a soccer boy?

So soccer tryouts were today so of course me and the Deltas had to go cheer on our favorite hot sweaty boys (and gorgeous looking sisters that barely broke a sweat!) It was a lot of fun, although Sy was getting seriously stressed. I sympathized, but it seemed like he was being a little rude to the tryouts.

I went to Armidi today and seriously dropped like 2K. I love that store so much and can't wait to wear everything around! Hopefully I can become a customer rep there because I can't keep spending this much money on one store!

Arwens Diaries: Dancing through life

Dear Diary

During the whole of mankind's existence, there has been one thing that has caused wars, healed friendships, and caused black eyes. During the Trojan war, the Greeks hid in one made of wood during the Trojan war...

This item of course are breasts.. Okay, so the Greeks didn't hide inside a giant pair of wooden breasts .. except for in this one movie i saw, but it was 3am, i was flicking through the TV channels and it looked interesting.

Which leads me nicely onto today's topic for my diary, and ties in nicely with the Greeks.

Today had two special events happening, first was Halloween of course, which was fun, i went as a phoenix first, and then transformed into a demon as a later costume.

The second event was the dance team tryouts. The quad was packed with hopefuls, desperately seeking a place amongst the dance squad, and the mating call was deafening in the concrete jungle of KSU. Although places were limited and there were sure to be disappointed faces.

The fraternity boys arrived in their droves, as they prepared to watch over the rising and falling over the silicon seas (and B's and D's), and to drown in their own drool.

I'll write more on the topic of the dance team tryouts, once i gather more facts, and possibility photos.

KSU has hired a new professor, He's teaching music theory and practice. The professors name was Ryu. I'm really happy that campus is finally offering a subject where i can put my heart and soul, and really enjoy.

I'm leaning towards music being my major at KSU, with the possibility of history or metaphysics being my minor.

Professor Ryu, is really great, even with all the disruptions to his class, with all the students turning up late throughout the hour. The music class lasts between two to three hours in total, and we learned a lot.

There were a lot of disruptions to the class, with people turning up late, and the frat guys, and sorority airheads disrupting class, with their "like I'm so bored" attitudes!

Although I'm also guilty of disrupting class, as i spent two hours in a bath of red paint to complete my devils costume.. which i think is going to take about two weeks to come off (.. note to self, if your going to bathe in paint, make sure its body paint, not for walls...)

I also learned that when the professor is trying hard not to laugh at one of my random comments or jokes, he turns a pretty shade of blue. Kinda like a smurf, only cuter and taller.






For next weeks class I'm going to be more prepared and turn up early, since this is one class i don't want to be kicked out of. I also set the professor the task of working out what note timing the snoopy dance has. As well as suggesting that for a Christmas production, we could team up with the dance squad. Music class can play, and we can stick the airheads in snoopy costumes and make them dance.

Arwens Diaries: The blonde gene

Dear Diary

Today was the day, that the world stood still and all that we knew and believed in, changed forever.. Elephants took to the skies, Monkeys swam the seas... and I signed up to tryout for the cheer leading squad at KSU.

Today is the day my life changes forever, black comes pink, daggers become pom poms, and every other sentence has the word "Like" in it... Although the main reason for me signing up for cheer leading, is because Alex is captain, so it should be fun being part of something that's not dramarific.

Something really interesting happened today though, There is this guy on campus called Perks, who i originally classed to be an egotistical jerk, based on how he acted the first week of college, but we actually had a real conversation, and it turns out that his sister, knows my sister. We were joking about our motorcycles and racing outfits, and he said his outfit was better, but i replied mines on a better model.

Today's Halloween, my favorite holiday of the year, and the whole day on campus will be full of people in costumes, that should allow me around 20 outfit changes, on a normal day, i might only change five or six times.

Health wise, my headaches are still no better, I found myself passed out on my dorm room floor last night, after I'd gone to fetch a notebook for arts class. I'm going to have to see somebody about these if it gets worse or more frequent. Maybe it'll explain why I've been a space case lately though.

I'll write more about my cheer leading tryouts once they happen, since the applications close Friday. although with there only being 10 places, and about 30 people have applied, i don't hold much hope, since if its anything like high school, the populars will get placed.

Signing off with a Rah Rah Rah

Addition to entry: marked 31/10/07

Just recieved word of new classes being offered on campus in music and music theory. Finally something i can get out of college. Time to dust off my guitar, tune my piano and drain my flute, because its showtime!

JellyBean's Diaries: Hello Again

Hello again my diary...
I know it's been a few days since I wrote last. It's been busy, and a lot of things have happened. For one work has been crazy, and trying to fit in class time has been just as crazy, plus Hawks & I have been partnered on a school project. I'm still trying to balance both schedules. In the midst of the craziness...

Hawks officially asked me to be his girl the other day. Of course I accepted. Working on the project has helped us to get closer & I couldn't be happier. He's a great guy & he makes me smile... a lot. So yay for all that.

Today was the first Visual Arts class of the semester with Professor Meriman. It was awesome. I feel I'll get a lot of out this class. Not only will we be learning how to film, but also lighting effects, angles, animation making, etc. I was so lucky to be able to cater my classes to my goals. I definitely wanna be a drama major. I have big hopes & dreams of becoming a famous SLactress that also writes, produces, directs & stars in her own films kind of like Kevin Smith & Quentin Tarantino. It could happen.

I also met up with Professor Burgess today who will be teaching the Creative Writing course. When all of this comes together I'm sure I'll be writing the scripts for my own independent films as well.

The Cheer & Dance teams are starting to form. I know Rosie really wants to try-out. In high school it's what we did... We lived & breathed Cheerleading. The majority of our summers were spent at World-renown Woodward West. Ah I miss those days. Anywho, I'm not so sure I can fit cheer in my schedule.

I am seriously thinking of starting something if I can fit it into my schedule so that we can have at least one extra curricular activity that isn't ran by a greek house. Wish me luck :)

Alexandrea's Diaries: Calling all Cheerleaders!

So college has been crazy! I was so nervous the first day I wouldn't make any friends or it'd be boring. OMG was I wrong! I have met some of the coolest people ever, and am having a blast! Rushing delta was a great experience. I got to dress up like a man, go on a panty hunt, write a poem, wear a fat suit, and go to my first toga party! The best part of it was becoming a Delta and meeting all my new amazing sisters!

Yesterday Berta sent out an notice asking if any Delta wanted to be co-captain of the cheerleading team, and being the ball of energy that I am, agreed. Iris Seale and myself (see picture above) are the official KSU Cheer Captains, and I am so excited! We're actually at a board meeting now which I probably should be paying attention to but oh well... ;p

We're getting the group together and trying to make cheers and uniforms. There's supposed to be like ten spots on the squad, but twenty-eight people have already signed up, and I'm friends with a lot of them. It's gonna make cutting so hard. :/ Our uniforms are looking good but my sis said my boobs look saggy in the top so I'm just like O.o! I'll upload pics and ask for opinions next time ;p

Okay I'm missing like all of the meeting and that's kinda bad. If anyone wants to tryout for cheerleading IM me before Friday!

<3 Alex

Arwens Diaries: Drama goes to college

Entry Date: 30/10/07
Feeling: Sick
Mood: Cranky.

Dear Diary

The atmosphere at college is thick with tension and bitchiness. You can walk across campus and see scenes that belong in Beverly Hills 90210 or Popular. I think the cafeteria needs to stop serving quakers insta-bitch for breakfast.

Had a good time at the pizzaria this evening, it was full when i clocked in for my shift, so i rushed around taking everyones orders, although i'm still pretty much a space case, i dont know whats wrong with me lately, but i dont seem to be able to think straight.

Once the rush had died down, i pulled out my guitar from behind the counter where i keep it for quiet moments, and played a duet with the tappa president gryff.

I got a wicked idea, and told him to take over the music, i then proceeded to climb up onto the counter and do a dance routine straight out of the coyote ugly movie, which reminds me, i really need to research how to do that dance!

My new friend Alex was there, and we were talking about the dance team and cheerleading squad. and i said that i was interested in joining the cheerleading team, should be fun and i love to dance.

I was going to sign up for the dance team, but The vice president of the Sorority house, is also the co-captain of the dance team. She was in the pizzaria this evening, and i swear, shes totally the face of the insta-bitch cereal commercials.

I'm going to close this entry here, since i'm seeing stars and my heads about to explode.

Bells Diaries - Delta Sister

Sunday night was the end of rush week; and The Kappas threw a party to mark the event, in true Greek style. Thankfully the Deltas gave out togas to the pledges so I didn't have the need to go to the Campus store and pick up one that was on sale. After getting dressed I left my dorm room and made way down to the Kappa house. I was kinda nervous about entering the party. Tonight was the night that the new Delta Sisters and Kappas would be announced. I paced in front of the house before I finally had enough nerve to walk in. The entire room was covered with people dancing, and drinking, I might have joined in on the drinking but I was way too nervous. I danced and waited until the big moment of the night. There in the middle of the Kappa house, two signs were posted with the names of the new Kappas and Deltas. I scanned the sign and to my surprise My name was listed. I am a Delta sister!!!! I am honored and extremely excited to be a part of this sorority. I only hope I can live up to the Delta standards. Time to call mom and dad and tell them the good news. I bet mom will be thrilled....Dad on the other hand is going to worry about those frat boys. :)

Aly's Diaries: Where Did the Weekend Go?

I've been informed it's Monday which leaves me wondering what the hell happened to the weekend? The last thing I remember is heading out of my dorm room in search of trouble. Ummm, I mean fun. Next thing I know I'm waking up in my bed (at least it wasn't a stranger's bed) wondering what day it is and when in the world did I get this tattoo? Who is Matt anyway? And who in the hell let me tat a guys name on my body? My parents are going to kill me!

Now I wonder where My Rosie was during all of this. It's her job to keep me out of trouble. How dare she fail me. RoooOOOoooooSSSiiieeeee I need you to keep me from self destructing!

Alright, I'm off in search of fluids, for some reason I'm soooo thirsty.

Arwens Diaries: Letter Home

<

Dear Mom and Dad.

Its my second week at KSU and I've been having such a great time, what little of it i can remember.

Theres lots of extra curricular activites on campus, such as beer drinking competitions, table dancing and partying. We're also having the occasional class, at the moment I'm studying Sociology and Beginners Italian.

Remember the money you sent me off with, to pay for dorm room rental, supplies and general living expenses .. I bought a motorcycle with it. I'm now working in the campus Pizzaria in order to pay for my room and board. Please send more money.

The campus site is huge, and has two houses on it, as well as main dorm rooms. One house belongs to the Sorority, it resembles Barbies dream house except more pink. The other house belongs to the Fraternity guys, and this house looks like it came straight from the set of "Animal House"

I've pledged a third group which has appeared on campus called Tappa Lotta Asses, this it appears is a parody of the kappa fraternity.

---- Remembers the warning her father gave her about the convent and tears the page out of her journal and screws it up into a ball before penning a new letter ----

Dear Mom and Dad

Life here at KSU is great. The classes are really interesting and i'm learning lots. I'm heeding your warning father, and am staying away from the boys of KSU, as i won't date until i'm married.

All my time outside of classes is spent studying, and i'm sure to recieve the highest marks.

I've spent the money you sent me to college with, on ankle length skirts and long sleeved baggy sweaters. It appears that i need more money for my room and supplies, so please send more.

Arwens Diaries: Beer good, hangovers bad

Entry Date: Sunday 28th October 2007

Dear Diary

I'm writing this entry now that the rooms stopped spinning.

This is the second weekend of college life, and its been full of parties.

On saturday we had a office themed party in the administration office .. We partied like it was friday afternoon and the boss was on vacation although I think the secreteries are going to be surprised when they find photocopies of my butt in their in-trays.

I think i drank too much though, because i ended up dancing in my lingerie with my new purple silk tuxedo lying in a corner of the room, which explains why i woke up on sunday morning with a cold and the shivers.

There was another party Tonight, it was the night that the fraternity and Sorority house new members got announced. To celebrate the Fraternity house threw a toga party, and all students from KSU were invited, including the tappas (thats me!)

Lots of beer, rum and laughter flowed at the party, and i found myself dancing on the top of a table with some sorority girls. I stayed until soon after the names of who had made it through were announced.

Apparantly i was flirting with one of the new professors at the college, although at least i remembered to wear underwear under my toga. I'm going to swear off drinking alcohol .. or at least until the next party.

The president of the Sorority house also announced that a dance team and cheerleading squad were being formed on campus and were soon going to be open for applications .. I think i'm going to join the dance squad, although hopefully it wont involve tables this time.

Tommorow night, my moms club opens its doors, The club name is Club Lust, and its the coolest club ever, before i turned eighteen i wasnt allowed to even see it, but i aim to attend tonights event though.

"I love to dance and i love to move
I love to swing and i love to groove."

Signing off, and getting some sleep

Rosie's Diaries: What's Happening? What's Going On? What Are You Doing?

Friday night at the dorm, and seems no one's around. Apparently Akasha has run into some financial issues and lost her room. I feel for her. Though it's cramped, we've parked her in our room, and we're hoping we don't get found out. I'm sure there are rules about how many people can share a room.

I spent some time last night showing a couple of new students around. It's always interesting to see things through other people's eyes. Kinda ironic too that I'd be showing others around a place I still feel that I am just getting to know. Not much seems to have changed since highschool when it comes to that clique-mentality, nor to that feeling that you need to always make the right choices when it comes to friends and groups.

It's been great being able to spend time with Aly again. We really were the best of friends when she used to live down the street from me when I was 8. Amazing sometimes that we have remained in touch and good to know that after all this time we can pick up kinda where we were that many years ago and now just get to hang out all the time! I was so sad when she packed up her roller skates and moved away with her family so long ago.

So, I don't know what possessed me... I don't have alot of free time. Between classes, studying, and working, my family has also put the added pressure on me of checking in on my Uncle who lives near school. I guess that's my fault for picking KSU to go to. It's not all bad and I care about my family, but I feel so spread thin and I've only been here a couple weeks! And in addition to all of that, I am now tutoring someone too. I didn't plan on the tutoring gig, but he was nice and really needed help in biology, so I agreed. Problem is that he's a frat boy and I'm not sure how to break this to my friends. I'm sure I'd get ridiculed to no end if Akasha and Jelly found out I had agreed to tutor one of the pretty boys of Kappa. Apparently, we're anti-greek societies... this week.

Well, time to stick my nose in a book for an hour before I head to work!

Arwens Diaries: Dreams revealed

Dear Diary

As you'll recall .. if you were alive, and able to remember things that i've wrote in you..

I had a dream that involved public embaressment,being laughed at, and of being suddenly naked in public.

Well it appears that part of my dream at least came true. KSU held a date auction event this evening, where people stood on the stage, while people bid on them.

Much like the gorean slave trading that I've read about, only with less knuckle dragging and more clothing )... barely.. taking into account this is college we're talking about)

I dont know whether i was posessed, temporarily insane, or just bored. but i decided to place myself in the eye of the public and enter that auction myself.

So the next few hours were spent, washing my hair, removing my makeup, reapplying makeup to give myself rosy cheeks, dyeing and styleing my hair, and picking an outfit .. all typical date stuff .. or so i've been told, since i've never had a date before, thats unknown territory to me.

A friend, suggested an outfit for me to wear, and so i chose my most stunning deep purple shoulderless dress.

The time came for me to leave my dorm room for the auction, and so there i went, dressed in formalwear, when what do i see when i get to the auction, everyone dressed, in denim shorts or jeans, and white t-shirts of varying lengths, coverage and style.

I'm too stubborn for my own good i guess, but i spent well over an hour, a island of purple, awash in a sea of white and blue, i finally decided that i'd had enough, and i'd remembered that i always kept a spare outfit in the saddlebags of my motorbike in case of being caught in the rain. So i slipped out unnoticed, which is easy to do when your miss invisible on campus, and ducked behind a bush to change outfits.

I reappeared five minutes later, wearing a tied shirt that barely covered my assets, and shorts so tiny, that i think the wedgie will be with me until i'm eighty, but damned if i didnt look hot! hot! hot!.


The auction ran into overtime, and it was, that at the end, there was only me left to be sold, money had been spent all night, and the college guys and girls pockets were nearly empty.

I walked up onto the stage, and stood embaressed. The host of the event asked me a question, and i answered it jokingly, which got a few chuckles from the audience, finally she opened the bidding "Who will offer $100 for arwen" .. silence, after what seemed an eternity, someone bid .. then another bid came, finally the bidding ended with the winning bid, or what had seemed like the winning bid, going to the biggest geek, this side of a star trek convention.

The host, said to the grade A, living in his parents basement style nerd "that'll be $1000. please pay" when he decided to laugh and say, sorry, i was only kidding i really dont have the money. the bottom fell out of my heart, and i knew i was going to be the only person left unsold.

Its bad enough to appear invisible, and know nobody, but to have it confirmed by nobody even winning you in a charity auction, would be the final straw, and i'd have flown on the next plane out of kindly, and gone back to England.

But my knight in shining armor, or in this case, my dame in shining armani, seeing as it was a woman, who came to my rescue, bid $600, and i was sold to her, I have to either go on a date with her, or perform a task she sets, but with my gratefullness at not being sent home alone, i aim to do my best to please her.

Okay, its way past my bedtime, and my pens running out of ink, so its time to put a close to this entry.

JellyBean's Diaries: The Longest Day

Wednesday October 24th 2007

Yesterday I worked what seemed to be the longest day ever since I started my internship with SurfDog Entertainment. Thank goodness I didn't have any classes because I was dragging my ass by the end of the night when I rolled into my room.

Geniffer Cordeaux, the new girl in the hall knew I was going to have a long day & left me a sweet note. It was just what I needed after the day I had. I need to do something sweet for her.

Later in the evening after my quick nap, Rosie came home. So we headed out for some mischief, no I mean... wholesome good funness. After some rollerskating, spoon carrying & randomness, we just walked around.

Turns out my pink VW was stolen from the Samuel Lee Sports and Events Center parking lot. I wasn't too happy. It may not have been the best car, the accelerator cable popped off often & at the worst times but damn it it was mine! The lack of campus police & security is really appalling. Luckily the local off campus authorities were able to locate it on the outskirts of Kindly campus. Doesn't look like anything was missing but it was out of gas. That leads me to believe that someone just wanted a joyride.

Still no Hawks around campus. I'm too nervous to call him. I don't wanna seem like a stalker or desperate hootchie. :/ Oh well, time to hit the sack.

Thursday October 25th, 2007

AV Auction (not just for dates!) Cutest in Denim Jeans and White Tee Contest -L$1000 to each of the cutest guy and girl '90s Pop Trivia -L$25 winnings per question! Come on down to the events center with the landmark! we start at 7 sharp!

I got off work earlier than I had expected today. I immediately decided I wasn't giving into sleep, even though I was pooped. No way! I've already missed enough campus activities and enough sessions with my therapist. I wasn't about to miss tonight's session or any campus hoorahs.

I've been seeing Ms. Cade Crimson for awhile now. Since starting at KSU, it's been more of a commute & I've slacked some on my visits. I've been trying to convince her to move her office closer but she hasn't quite yet. I have lots of issues that she helps me work through and I wouldn't trade her for anything.

After my session I headed straight back to campus for the night's Sports Center fun. Rosie & Aka weren't anywhere to be found. I called Rosie's cell just to get her voicemail. I left a stupid message & tried to call Aka. It just rang & rang. Remembering that Ms. Crimson suggested I be more out-going, I decided to go alone. This is something I normally wouldn't do.

I'm so glad I did though. I arrived just as the date auction was kicking off. I sort of stood there surveying the crowd. I spotted Hawks about the same time he must of spotted me. I smiled & waved, the next thing I knew he was asking me to dance. *swoons* We talked about studies, work, and basic things. The night ended on a perfect note as we went back to our dorm rooms. Separately! Gah! I'm cute but I'm not easy. :p

I hope to see more of him around campus.

*chews on the back of her pen caught in a day dream as she closes her pink diary*

Glad's Diary: The peeper...

I don't feel so hot right now. Probably this percocet they gave me, anyways...
Everyone is asking what happened to my leg. Long story short, I went for my usual jog around campus last night after the movie (well at least what I saw). I always run behind the dorms because its so peaceful and I love being near the water.
Well as I rounded one of the dorms I noticed a movement against the wall.... now mind you im not the biggest girl in the world so I wasn't exactly going to investigate but I wasn't even sure it was a person, I thought maybe stray cat or some leaves moving or something--- yeah im aware thats lame. Turns out it was some pervy guy! You guessed it peeping into one of the dorm windows... I remember it because I noticed its one of the only rooms with blinds. I was kind of shocked so I must have stood there a second, then he saw me and came towards me. I took a few steps back while trying to see if I recognized him. It all happened so fast, next thing I know hes grabbing me and im pulling away. Guess he had a different idea because he shoved me and I ended up falling on my leg in a ditch behind one of the frat houses. We really should get some sort of campus security. Noise from a couple of pledges scared the peeper off...never thought id be so happy to see a couple of pledges streaking in just their shmanties. So anyway the score is thins -my ipod, + broken legg= not a happy camper.


I ended up in the emergency room, in pain, and without drugs for a little while. Eventually after waiting, and xrays im stuck with this ugly cast. Oh yeah there was this cute firemen that was doing a ridealong with the emts, turns out hes a volunteer and in reality hes a professor. He says hes considering being a guess lecturer here at kindly and possibly taking on a staff position. I really hope he does, he was so kind to me and he stuck by my side through almost the whole process!
Three days from my birthday though....some present huh?

Tiana Diary: Getting fed up

Today i went back to school as per my usual when i want to work on my notes on the way there however i saw a student shooting out of a truck! Of course i had to say something, they completely disrespected me. not only that but a half naked student showed up and pretty much told me to fuck off when i asked her to put on some clothes.

i am getting pretty fed up with these immature brats already. the principal asked me if i wanted to limit the people who could enter my class, at first i said no, wanting to give a chance to learn. however after seeing the sociology class, how immature the majority of the school is and now seeing how disrespectful are. i now seriously reconsider my choice. i asked the principal if i could hand pick the student attending my class i might just well do that, theres other place i can teach and i also have other things to do. I'm not going to teach to people who don't want to learn.

Arwens Diary: Dreaming of cotton candy kittens

Dear Diary

I find myself awake in the early hours of the morning, unable to sleep and afraid to close my eyes...

I woke up drenched in sweat and clutching at the covers of my bed in fear, i grabbed a notebook that i'd left by the side of my bed, and wrote down what i could remember of my nightmare before it left my mind as quick as the sands of time.

I dreamt that I was on stage in front of an audience of millions. This was my big break, I was playing Hermia in a stage production of A Midsummer Night's Dream. We were coming up to the part of my big solo, where i sang of my love for Lysander.

I then felt a draft as the wind kicked up and swirled leaves around me like a hurricane of color. The audience burst into laughter and i happen to glance down to see that my costume had dissapeared and i was standing in front of millions, as naked as the day i was born

I was determined to carry on with the play and put on the appearance as if that was simply a part of the play. However when i opened my mouth to begin singing my solo, my voice croaked and i ribbited like a frog, once more the audience roared in laughter, and i exited stage left as fast as my legs could carry me.

Once backstage, i searched high and low for my street clothes, which lead me to a closet hidden in shadow, there i enterted, searching for something to cover my embaressments, when the door slammed shut and the bottom dropped out of the closet, leading me to freefall for what seemed an eternity. I was approaching the bottom when a light covered me and i woke up asleep, safe and sound and fully clothed in my dorm room bed.


I really need to stop eating cheese pizzas before i sleep, and sign up for a course of ten lessons with my psychiatrist... Well i should try getting back to sleep, i have work tommorow, and i want to carry on with the painting that i'm preparing for arts class.

Forever Yours

Arwens Diary: The Day Fashion Died

Dear Diary

Its rush week at KSU and the frat guys and Sorority girls are having to perform tasks set by the head dogs of both camps.

Roberta Beauchamp and Killian Klein, head of the sorority and frat houses, have set their pledges tasks to complete. Some of which i managed to catch on film, both men dressing as women and women dressing as men, along with the women having to act obnoxious just like men, except better at the pickup lines.

Meanwhile i've joined the anti frat group, called the Tappas, although it sounds like a food dish, the people are really cool.

I'm out of my depression stage, and i'm beginning to make friends at last.

I'll include some photos of the rush week, once i get time to scrapbook them into my journal.

Bells Semyorka: Delta Drag King

Rush week is over half way done and I don't know whether I should be grateful for that or sad. (I guess it's a little of both.) It's been a wonderful experience, despite the embarrassing things I've done. :) Today was Delta Drag King day, so the school was filled with ladies dressed as Gents. We were asked to dress in drag in order to understand what it's like behind the mind of boys . (see there is a point to the madness..... at least thats what I am gonna keep telling myself.)

Finding the right outfit was hard considering: 1) I didn't know the first thing about mens clothing. 2) I had nothing in my closet that would work. Luckily for me, I was able to borrow an outfit from a friend. Once I put on my new threads and looked in the mirror, I couldn't stop laughing. (Mom if you could see your baby daughter now) I knew there was no way any girl would ever date me looking like this, Hell..... I wouldn't even date myself.

Dressing the part was only the beginning. Once in drag we were required to act the part of a Casanova and pick up as many ladies as we could. This is when the real challenge began. I tried to remember every line that has ever been muttered from a guys mouth to a pretty lady ;). I don't really think I did a good job of representing the male form, but I gave it my best shot. It was tough being a guy lots of rejection, definitely an eye opening experience. I have a new appreciation for guys, after all I have walked on the other side.

It's close to midnight, I think its time to hop into bed and rest. Tomorrow is a new day!

Arwens Late Night Entry

Mood: Lonely

Listening to: The sound of silence

Feeling: Invisible


Dear Diary

Finished my late night shift at Nicolos pizzeria, it appears as if people only notice me when I'm behind the counter.

Feeling homesick, and as my parents are out of the country and are unable to be reached, i cant call them to hear their voices. I want to go home, but I don't want to appear a quitter, and the classes sound really fun.

Met a girl at the pizzeria, and later at the library, she appears shy, but really nice, shes pledging a sorority house, but doesnt seem to be the usual nose in the air, hands in a rich guys pockets sort of sociolite. Showed her my portfolio of modeling shots for a laugh, and offered to set up a shoot for her too.

Cant wait for Halloween, as it gives me an excuse to dress up, and i only really feel comfortable when i'm behind a mask.

I'll write more later, when I'm not feeling so down, and i have work early tomorrow so i should get some sleep.

Forever Unknown

JellyBean's Diaries: Gang or Frat House

I've noticed that some people take themselves way to seriously. Life is short and I don't plan on wasting mine. If it ain't fun... run.

So tonight I met the President of the Tappas. He was really funny & blingy... don't worry diary, I called him on it.

You: excuse me Pres, I need to consult my girl on this
Pres: fine fine
Pres peeks in the room
You: psst Glad, is it fun or will we all be drinking suicide juice to join the mother ship in a week?
Glad Kidd: hahaha

He seemed very anti-frat/sorority. I admit I am too. I wouldn't ever pledge because I just don't have time to walk a poodle or get a manicure. No, seriously I'm sure it's not "really" like that. I just don't have time to be a social-butterfly. I have four classes that I am taking, a part-time job & right now it's all I can handle to find a routine that works. Glad assured me that it was a fun group, and I figured that if she thinks so it has to be, though I'm not quite sure if I'll have much free-time for their parties. Oh well, I say. I do what I can.

After Rosie, Aka & I signed up we went out front for a smoke break & were almost instantly greeted by some Kappas. It seemed more like an attack than a friendly hello. One of them called us "sheep" as if we're followers. Coming from one of the members of a frat house, it seemed kind of hypocritical. Or does that make them sheep herders? I have a plethora of other adjectives I'd rather use, but who knows if this diary will be published as a screenplay one day. Haha.

No sign of Hawks on campus today. He may have been at work. You know I never even asked what he does besides school. I left a note on his door after our date, I hope he saw it. If I can't find him tomorrow, I'll try to come up with a reason to call him. :)


Well, I have a long day of work ahead of me tomorrow, so off to lala land I go.

Aly's Diaries: Campus Life

Saturday Oct 20th

My parents dropped me off at the admin building this evening. Of course they wouldn't say so but I think they were thankful to have me out of the house again. I think I was cramping their style when I moved home for the summer after my freshman year of college. I heard mention of running around naked. ?! I'd really rather not think about what they were talking about. Ewww

I never was one for planning. I'm more of a spur of the moment type of gal so I didn't even have living arrangements figured out. I decided to wander around campus, suitcase in hand and check out my new domain. I wouldn't say I was aimlessly wandering but at the same time it wasn't really like I was on a mission either.

I noticed a harvest party taking place and I'm pretty sure there was a costume contest going on. If it wasn't a costume party I'm really scared that maybe I'm attending a college for call girls and over sized walking peckers. I hope that's not the case. If so I may have to withdraw from school.

Jelly must have seen me walking around because before I knew she was to my rescue. I mentioned I felt lost and she immediately made me feel at home by offering for me to crash in her and Rosie's dorm in Red Hall until I could get settled in on my own. Speaking of Rosie...I couldn't wait to see her. It's been too long since we last hung out.

I actually ended up getting my own room. Tiana, whom I just met, and who seems really nice, found a room down the hall. I immediately payed my rent even though it is right across the hall from the RA. Not the best situation to be in but I think I'm sneaky enough to be able to do what I want without having the RA knocking on my door.

I wonder what my roommate is going to be like. I hope we get along OK.

Sunday, Oct 21st

I got up this morning and decided to go to the student store. I bought a fridge with a variety of things to put in it. I think it will be perfect for hiding a beer or two behind everything else in there. I even bought ramen. I think I might die from starvation if it weren't for ramen. I sure do miss moms cooking...... I also purchased a sweatshirt and some pens and pencils. Just enough to get me started.

I went back to my room and was chatting with some friends back home via my laptop when my roommate snuck up on me and about scared me to death. Her name is Seven and although we didn't have much time to talk as I was going out for some coffee and she was unpacking, I think she seemed pretty cool and I think we'll get along fine. Good thing, otherwise Rosie might come home some night and not find one of the three bears in her but but me instead!

After getting my coffee I decided to go to the library and write this journal entry. While I've been here I met a nice lady who is an exchange student from Germany. We talked for awhile and I hope I run into her again sometime. I'm supposed to let her know when the classes start.

Monday, Oct 22nd

I had a long day at work today. When I got home My Rosie invited me to her room. We kicked back and talked for awhile. It was nice to spend some time hanging out. At some point she was craving ice cream so I ran down to my room and brought back what I had in my freezer. About the time Jelly came home an old pal of mine requested my presence off campus so I went to visit him. It was really nice to see him. I spent to much time out running around and now it's past my bedtime. Time for sleep!

Tuesday Oct 23rd

So somewhere along the way I have missed the first days of class. I haven't even signed up for a class yet. I guess I better get my act together or my parents are going to be none too happy. I sure hope this school has night classes. Otherwise I'm screwed. But right now I must nap!

Tiana Diary: meeting the students

Today was my second day on campus, there was the italian class this morning but unfortunatly i missed it. It would have given me another chance to observe the students. So i returned to a nice little spot i found on campus, its a nice little cafe, very quiet but quite nice non the less.

i met the young lady that works there, Glad Kidd, she's very nice. she was a bit depressed over her choice of school, feeling like she was still in highschool. I understand her feeling completely! i showed her my program for this year and she seemed very excited, i hope i revived her flame for studying. she also met with a group of girls who were very friendly with her, i hope it will lead to a friendship. Glad really needs someone to hang out with. i really hope it will turn out for the best.

i had a few things to do off campus, when i returned i decided to go check out the classroom i was going to teach in, getting familiar with my work area and all that. i was quite suprise to see jellybean come in and take a seat at a desk. she seems to be very serious about her studies, i like that. i heard quite a growl from her stomach a bit later on, so i invited her over to pizza. she's also very nice, i like her quite a lot, we even talk about her current crush. aaahh it brings out so many memories. ^^

we then parted company and i decided to go back to the cafe. on the way i saw one of those carts the student are using, it was on the sidewalk and seemed stuck. the students where still around but when i asked if everyone was ok they scatered. i have to say i am not impressed. they were all from the fraternity and sorority, up to now i observed that those students are the less serious in the group of students. i hope they will correct their attitude or they will fail my class, i will not tolerate such childish behavior. anyway i wrote their names down so i could remember them, i have my eye on them.

Akasha's Diaries: Tuesday Oct 23

Dear Diary,

My first few days of college, where has the time gone? Just yesterday it seems as though Jelly, Rosie, and I were bitching about having to go to first period at 8 in the morning. Summer was the best and now it's over. Memories that linger in the beautiful parts of my mind. Enough of the blah.. Ok so I haven't gone to class yet.. I know not something that surprises me in the least. Spent most of this time out of state.. Yes I am away from the one I love, but I'm sure it's for the best right? Not going to dwell on it.. I can't afford such things right now.. I have to get into it.. into the studying and the academic achievement.. LOL I know it's funny! But I'm going to try..

Dorm life is alright I suppose. Nothing new really, since my parents died I have pretty much been on my own anyway. My roomy is Glad Kidd.. She seems pretty cool from what I have seen. She's got a great mural on her wall of My home.. So I don't feel so lost right now. I know she didn't do that for me. But it's cool we have something in common even if she doesn't know it.

I have been seeing some familiar faces around here. Doesn't mean I'm happy about it, but I am trying to take things in stride now. Growing up will do that to a girl. I find myself working on different projects a lot, and I haven't even taken a class yet. Go figure that one!

Done right now.. I'll finish when I'm interesting.

Tiana's diaries: Teacher life

Today i arrived at Kindly State University. I'm a bit late compared to the students but my class only starts next week. I was so glad when my program for Visual Arts was accepted, i'm very excited for the year to come.

my program is pretty full, i hope the students wont have to much problems following along, theres also a lot to learn so i hope they will pay attention. I'm a little nervous right now, i went to the sociology class to see how the students behaved, i can't say i was very impressed. I dont know if its the fact that vacation just end or maybe there was a lot of new student coming from highschool but they were quite childish. I did see some students who were interested and contributed to the class so i am filled with hope that everything will go well.

I also love how well the school is running right now, everything seems to go smoothly and that makes me happy.

Arwens Diaries: Sociology 101, the study of pizza

/me sits down at her desk, and opens her diary to a fresh page
----------------------------------------------------------------


Just finished my first class of the college year, Sociology 101, with Professor Lead Tushy.

Arrived late to class, due to playing with my new motorcycle, nearly crashed into a sorority pledge, but one less sociolite, cant be a bad thing.

We discussed what we wanted to get out of the class, and what we thought sociology was, or what it meant to us. Naturally i cracked a few jokes, including one involving the mating rituals of cheerleaders and football players.

I really need to start taking college more seriously, if i get kicked out of school then my parents have threatened to have me shipped off to a convent .. in return i replied that i'd have the nuns pole dancing within the day.

We really didnt learn much of anything this period since everyone was too noisy and the ProfessorLedd Toshi, now forever known as Professor Lead Tushy, had trouble being heard over the noise.

Speaking of which, what is it exactly that causes college professors to dress as if Goodwill had donated half the contents of their wardrobes. I offered to lend him some of my Lingerie, but he declined, which is a pity, since it seems he has nice legs under all that twead.

The next class this week, is beginners Italian, which should be really interesting, i can learn how to curse in Italian. Maybe for our midterm projects in this class, i can hand in a pizza.

I'll start including photos in my next entry into my journal, since i've bought a new camera with the money my parents gave me, which reminds me, i really need to look into if KSU is offering any classes in the arts.

Think i'll end my journal entry here, since i'm late for my shift at Nicolos pizzaria, and the anchovie tries to corrupt the pepperoni if nobody is around to watch it.

Bells Semyorka's Diaries

It's hard to believe that almost a week has passed since college started. It's my freshman year and my first time away from home...ever. I was a little surprised that mom and dad let me go away to college, especially since it's far away. I will admit that I do miss them.... just a tiny bit and believe me, I never thought I would say that.

Since I am missing that "family feeling" I decided to rush a sorority, and just any sorority but the Delta Zomma Omega's. (I always wanted to have sisters) This Week is Rush, and as a Delta pledge I will be participating in events all week long. (I feel as though I am on Cloud 9). Between classes starting and Rush I only hope that I will be able to balance the two.

My first class was today:Introduction to Sociology, Professor:Ledd Toshi. After Professor Toshi gave a brief introduction on himself and sociology, he handed out a small assignment for everyone, What we think sociology is? and What do we want to get out of the class? I prayed that I would not be called on, thankfully I was spared. Some of the students responses were very amusing, but somehow I managed to contain my laughter. I hope tomorrow's class is just as fun. I think its beginners Italian. Lucky for me I have a tutor already, That cute Kappa Pledge Frankie Palliard. He's from Italy.

JellyBean's Diaries: First Class

SOCIOLOGY 101
Introduction to Sociology

Professor Ledd Toshi

Monday @ 5 p.m. SLT
Houghton Tech Lecture Hall

Today was my first official college class. I would love to say that it felt more grown up, more mature, and like it felt as I had assumed it would... but it didn't. Seems that most the students feel they're still in high school. Spit wads? Really? How on earth did you ever get accepted? Everyone wants to be the class clown, I suppose.


Professor Toshi seemed nervous at first but he found himself in a comfy place as class started flowing along & discussions took place. He handled the class very well in my opinion. He also partnered us up by table for an assignment.

Ledd Toshi: I want the two of you to come up with short paragraph defining what you think sociology is, and a second paragraph about what sorts of things you would like to get out of this class.

Luckily for me, I was sitting by a hottie. :p I picked my seat very strategically to be sitting next to HawksRock Gunawan. Turns out he's just as smart as he is cute too. I ran into him after class at the library. He asked me out. I have one word... *swoons*

Arwens Diaries: Animal House Two .. Arwen goes to college

Hi! I'll be your host for this guided tour inside the mind of one Arwen Kimblerly Hykova.

Please hold onto the rails, keep your hands and arms inside the car at all times, and make sure your wills are up to date, this is going to be one wild ride.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

This is the first entry into the journal of Arwen Hykova, freshman at Kindly State University.

We arrived at KSU five days ago, my parents dropped me off at campus and sped off in the distance, their voices carrying on the wind shouting "YES!!! we're free"... I think their going to miss me.

I'm an exchange student from England, so college life is strange, but the girls seem cute, and the classes should be fun. On the plus side, i'm sharing a dorm room with my step sister, who was born and raised in america and so is used to this way of life.

I brought the essentials with me from home, my guitar, keyboard, and my "how to torture cheerleaders without leaving visible marks" handbook.

The first five days have passed quickly, and i'm as lonely as on the first day, although i got a job at Nicolo's Pizzaria where i get to meet other students. The nightlife on campus is non-existant, although outside of kindly city limits, there are some fun nightclubs.... note to self, request leather catsuits to be shipped from home...

Well, i'm running out of ink, and the body lying under my desk that i'm using for a footstool is getting restless, so its time to close this journal entry and go do something fun.. world domination is always a fallback, although the americans can keep alabama and kansas.

............................................................................................................

We're coming to the end of this journey through the mind of Arwen Kimberly Hykova. I hope you enjoyed your trip, and will come back for another ride through the twilight zone ... Same Brat time, Same Brat channel.

Glad's Diaries: The new girl...

So here I am... even though I had to practically beg my parents for permission to live "in dorm".
Things are pretty much what I expected except for one thing....well two things really. For one thing im under the impression that everyone here knows everyone else...except for me, hence the new girl tittle. Now the other thing....Why the hell can I not find a working soda machine?? Don't get me wrong, I love taking walks and I love getting a good workout in but is it really necessary that I leave campus for a for a can of Addict? Well other than that im seriously in love with place. My parents cant wait for the student union to hand out visitors passes because of course they believe their ahem 18 year old baby girl is going to end up disappearing. Right like some student that i dont even know is going to come kidnap me or something.

Sp far all i have to right home is my roommate is not a serial killer, shes actually very nice- "Hi Akasha", and yes mother the bathrooms are clean. Other than that everyone is pretty much cliquey, I don't fit in, I dont know if i'll ever fit in, i haven't gotten my class schedule yet, the library is actually decent, my part time job at darnells saves me from having to beg my parents and there are some pretty hot guys on campus, of course they don't really notice me.

Rosie's Diaries: Homesick

Seems like my first few days at Kindly have flown by in a blur. Which, I guess I should be thankful for. Now that I've had a chance to slow down and take it all in, I'm not sure how 'at home' I feel here yet. It's a far cry from sunny california, and it's lovely to be able to see the seasons changing and feel winter coming on. I know I'm in for much more dramatic weather than I experienced while growing up in the California sunshine.

Although I couldn't make the trip with Jelly and Aka, I'm happy to report that I was able to secure my room to share with Jell. Of course, leave it to Jelly and Aka... they did their part to make me feel welcome upon my arrival with posters plastered on *my* side of the room of Erkel and Screech. Bitches! Paybacks, that's all I'm sayin.

I don't know why I'd describe this feeling as being homesick. What's to miss? My bestest friends ever are here with me! Sure there's no mom and dad, but really,.. YAY for that :D It's just that it's not the same as highschool, and I'm not sure whether or not that's a good thing yet. The girls here all seem so much older. Everyone seems really nice and I look forward to meeting lots of new people. I have worked so hard for the last couple years to save up the money to go away to school, so I'm really looking forward to this year! I still have to work to be able to keep up with everything going on here, which totally sucks! Already I missed the Harvest Festival this weekend. It hasn't been until just now that I've been able to really spend any time with my friends or start unpacking! One thing's for sure! I'm going to need alot more winter clothes! Ooooh, shopping!

JellyBean's Diaries: Fall Fest

The campus was decked out in true fall spirit complete with fliers everywhere. The girls & I knew we had plans off campus prior to hearing about Fall Fest - (Swing on down to Warshington Place and hang out at the 14th Annual Harvest Festival! Grab some fun Fall freebies and pledge a Greek House! Apple Bobbing and FREE BEER!! Visit the kissing booth at 1SLT and help support the Kodiaks!! 25L for a smooch and a souvenir photo!). Aka was going out of town for the weekend to see Peter, Rosie was working long hours, Tiana I'm sure was out sight seeing being new to the area, and as for me... I had some major retail therapy on the horizon.

Most of my day was spent browsing through new releases and window shopping. I arrived back to my dorm late & apparently just in time for the costume party happening outside at the bonfire. It didn't look like Rosie, Aka or Tiana had returned from their day trips, so I threw on my costume & headed over to the festivities.

Once I arrived I realized my costume was pretty damn innocent in comparison with the other girls. Seriously, I should have possibly done a slutty Alice in Wonderland. Hah!

It wasn't too long before a cab pulled up in the distance. Hooray! Tiana was back. She quickly changed & joined me at the party. We stayed long enough to mingle, see the winners of the costume contest & then we both decided that it was already too late to stay up any longer. It was time to give in to sleep so we headed back to our rooms.
