*Wake up! Wake up!*

I look over at my alarm it flashes the time 7:00am I put it on dismiss.  I sit up and uncover myself I grab my uniform and head to the bathroom. I hurry and wash up I put on the knee length plaid skirt. Along with the white button shirt with the red vest over it. I sit on the bathroom floor and slip my tube socks all the way up covering my calves. Then I put the black shoes with gold buckles on.   I hurry up and comb my hair and head down stairs.

As soon as I reach the bottom of the stairs I can Smell pancakes.

Angela:Good morning... Amelia!
Amelia: Hi Angela good morning to you too. I didn't hear you come in this morning.
Angela: That is good I didn't want to wake you until it was time.
Amelia: Um okay.

She walks over to the table and pulls out the chair.
Angela: Well come on we got to get you fed before it's time for college.

I slowly walk to he table and sit down.

She sets down a plate of pancakes with strawberries on top. I grab the fork and start to eat them.
Amelia: This is very delicious Angela thank you!
Angela: Why thank you Amelia! You are very welcome.
Amelia: These strawberries are very good too!
Angela: Oh you will have to thank Ross Burke the grounds keeper for that. He picked them this morning.
Amelia: Wow there is a garden?
Angela: Yes a fruit and vegetables.
Amelia: If you see Ross today can you tell him he needs to fix the bathtub spout.
Angela: Yes I will tell him.

* Beep beep*

Angela looks out of the window.
Angela: You better hurry the car is ready to take you to school.

I stand up and take a last sip of Orange juice. I grab my backpack and sling it over my shoulder.  
Amelia: thank you so much for the breakfast! Bye.

I head out the door and I see Mark opening the door. I see a girl from the cottage across from me get into the car.
Mark: Good morning Karlie Taylor!
Karlie: Morning Mark!

She slides into the car.

Mark looks at me and tells me to come.
Mark: Good morning Amelia Ryder!
Amelia: Good morning!

I get into the car and he shuts the door. Once I get in the car I see that girl Karlie and then some guy.
Karlie: Amelia right?
Amelia: Ya that's me.
Karlie: Arnt the cottages just .... Beautiful!
Amelia: Very! I really like it.

Karlie turns and looks at the guy next to her.
Karlie: What about you Andrew?

Andrew looks at me then he looks back at Karlie.
Andrew: I like it too... It seems like home.

Karlie looks at Andrew and I and she whispers.
Karlie: okay so does any of you know why we were chosen to stay in the cottages?
Andrew:Chosen?
Karlie: Ya I heard that only certain people are chosen to stay in them.
Amelia: Ya I heard that too but Daphne Erickson said that's why we took a personality test. To see where the campus wants us placed.
Mark:We have arrived to the campus.

All of us stare out the window as we pull up to the campus. Mark slows down and stops. He gets out of the car and opens the door and we get out.
Mark: Just make your way to the Admissions office.

Andrew,Karlie and I all head to the Admissions office. We walk down a red brick path. Surrounded by trees on each side. Finally we see a sign that says administration office Left . We all take a left and we immediately see a long ine.  I then see Daphne. She runs over to me and give me a hug. 
Daphne: ahh you wouldn't believe this line! I see you made some friends! 
Amelia: this is Karlie and Andrew

They shake Daphnes hand.
Karlie: how long have you been here?
Daphne:Ooh Karls I barley got here my dorm is all the way in the back.
Amelia:Your dorm is on campus?
Daphne: ya and uhh I got this roommate she's just soo Snobby! She was hanging up her clothes and everything was pink!
Karlie:What's her name?
Daphne: uhhh I think she said Lizzie Stevens.
Andrew: Lizzie Stevens is your roommate? She is filthy rich!
Daphne: Ya I know she told me lots and lots of Times.

Just then Daphne hides behind me.
Amelia: uhh Daphne? What are you doing?

Daphne:Thats lizzie she is coming over here.
Lizzie:Hey! Daphne I see you! Come out from behind her.

Daphne slowly come out behind me.
Daphne: hey Lizzie.. What are you doing here?
Lizzie: Oh Daphne your so hilarious! I'm here for the same reason everyone else is.
Karlie: How long are we gonna have to wait in this line?
Lizzie: Well it's only 7:47am Right now.
Andrew:All the good classes are gonna be taken. And we are last in line.

The lines slowly moves.
Daphne: we should totally all have lunch together after we get signed up for classes.

Just then a guy comes up behind us. He looks and sees how long the line is.

He introduces himself as Elliot Eston. He is tall and he has  Brown hair Green eyes. He is wearing a red vest like mine.I just noticed a lot of people here have different color of vest . I was wondering why Daphne had a yellow one. Lizzie has a blue vest. Andrew has a Black vest. Karlie she has a green one. I wonder why we all have different colors?
Elliot: Do any of you know what class y'all are gonna take?
Andrew: Well I am hoping to take quantum physics.
Karlie:Really? Me too!
Lizzie: I want to take Psychology.
Daphne:hmmm i really want to take environmental science.

Elliot looks at me and smiles.
Elliot: what about you Amelia?
Amelia:English literature.
Elliot: I'm gonna take that too I hope we are in the same class.
Amelia: Really?That is cool maybe we will be in the same class.

Finally we get to the front we have to scan our id cards in order to get in.

They open the gates and we all walk in.

As soon as we walk in there is booths every left and right.

Every one leaves to go look at booths but Elliot stays close by me. I sign up for  history,biology and calculus.

I even met a few people who are gonna be in my classes a guy named Derik Neevs and a  girl named Riley Carter the. Another guy named trey Carson.

I see the  English literature table so I head over to it. Elliot follows behind me.

I sign my name and the hand the pen to Elliot and he signs his. The girl at the table hands me a book and I put it in my backpack along with the others.

A bell rings meaning it is time for lunch.
