Zach soon left and I heard everyone go off to there rooms.
There was a knock on the door.

C: "Hey Ariel, can I come in?"

A: "Yeah sure"

He walked in and sat beside me on my bed.

C: "so you liking it here?"

A: "Yeah I love it Cam!"

C: "Good. There was just a couple of 'rules' I was wanting to tell you about staying here.

I nodded my head for him to continue.
He told me the rules:

In your room by 11:30pm
&
Obey the schedules laid out.

Seemed straight forward enough.

A: "Um what schedules sorry?"

C: "we have two schedules, one for who makes breakfast and dinner that day, and one for who tidies the rooms that day"

A: "Oh okay, do you have them somewhere I'd be able to see?"

C: "there is one hanging on the wall in the dining room and one in the hall just out there. Also the 'tidy' schedule runs from Monday to Friday, not the weekends though. But on the weekdays you must be up no later then 10:15am"

A: "mind if I look just now?"

C: "No problem. On the tidy schedule it was Mark's turn today. The cooking schedule was mine today"

I walked out of my room and looked at the schedules pinned on the wall.

So tomorrow, Mario is tidying and Blake is cooking. Glad it's not me.

I walked back to my room as Cameron gave me a quick hug and walked off.
I started getting changed into my pyjamas when I saw someone looking through the 2 inch gap in my door that had been left open. But I couldn't tell who it was.

A: "Um who's that?"

No reply, suddenly they ran away but I could hear no movement. I decided my imagination was playing tricks on me and finished getting my pyjamas on.

I put on a white sports bra and a pair of soft navy shorts, it was the comfiest thing to sleep in.
I sat at my desk, that had a mirror and put my hair into french braids. Then I went to my en suite, took my makeup off and cleaned my face. I opened my windows up a little and laid under my covers, in my bed, listening to all the noises of outside.
Soon I fell into a deep slumber, today had been quite tiring.
