Each bed is a four poster, with embroidered duveys and sheets. You may chose the colour of these and the colour sceme of your room. The school is happy to paint it, and design it how you wish. Shared dorms are marked with a number then the letter "B". Single dorms are marked with a number then the letter "A". Here is your selection of single dorms:

((Good. We have enough people to start for now, but anyone else willing to sign up may do so. Thanks everyone!))
A black strech limo pulled up in front of the old school. The brick was coming down, and the windows were in desperate need of windex. No one minded though, because most of the school funds went into supplies and classes. As well as funding for the school teams, such as cheerleading or basketball. This school even had it's very own snowball fight team. And dodgball.
Star was a very involved person, never one to judge something before trying it. She was also into cars and such, something girls in this school weren't really into. Star stepped out of the limo, and got the driver to pop the trunk. She reached in and pulled out her suitcase and handed it to the driver to take into the school. Star pulled out another object, this one was a cage, and inside was Star's iguana, Sam.
It was short for Samuel, but her mom said that Sam fitted him better. So, Star took her mother's word and shortened it to Sam. Sam the Iguana.
Star balanced his cage in one hand, then shut the trunk with the other. Star hadn't been at school because she had gone for an early vacation to Florida. It was a long way away, but Star didn't mind.
Star and her driver made it up to her dorm room, through the crowd of people in that hallways, offering to take her bag or Sam, but Star just ignored them. She was a nice person, just, they didn't need any help, and Sam needed to be back in his cage.
The dorm room was painted an original colour of red. The accents were a dark brown and white. Her curtain were white, and the furnature was brown. Star also had a walk-in closet, just as all the other single dorms had. She also had a bathroom, like the other singular dorms. Right over by her bed was Sam's tank, and Star put him inside and set his cage down. "Just put my suitcase over there." Star said, her british accent tanging on her sentence. Her driver put her bags down, then left.
((let's make it England where this takes place, okay?))

England... They just couldn't transfer her to another hospital in the states... Alex thought to himself, strumming his fingers against the walls of the hallway. Today was the day his mom had decided to finally send him to school, since they were now all settled in. At least England was a place he could enjoy, and not the Middle East. Sighing he remembered his aunt lived in London, at least one relative up here. His mom liked to arrive early, forty five minutes today to be exact. She needed to get to work and wouldn't let him walk here. Sighing once more he remembered at some poitn he would probably have a roomate, though who he hadn't a clue. Continuing to strum absently he looked at the few people sifting through the hallways, still a little early for everyone to be here.

Name: Katherine (nickname: Kiki) Rosette
Age(15-19): 16
Dorm: 7a
Recent History: Kiki was born to a small family outside of town. It was a wonderful happy little family: Her parents, her brother, and herself. That is, until a fatal accident during a family trip. The family was driving to a vacation spot when she was 5, when hit by a 18 wheeler truck (is it 18, or 16? Not completely sure on what it really is XD), the kind that transported new cars. This killed everyone in a heartbeat, but somehow Katherine survived. Perhaps it was because she happened to be the lightest one, and was thrown out of the car before the new cars fell on top of the family vehicle.
After a trip to the hospital, she was then taken to live in a foster home. For awhile, she suffered from a slight limp due to the crash, but was otherwise alright other than cuts and bruises. She lived here with 6 other kids, most who she found friendly and nice. However, there was one catch; the father happened to get a bad habit of drinking as of late. This scared the kids, but the mother, being a kind soul, usually tried her best to plan grocery trips and such to get them away from him. She was like a older sister more than a mother, always trying to make it fun for them. This lady always wore a flower in her hair, so Kiki thought of her as the "Flower Girl". Since Katherine had become quiet and reserved since the crash (as opposed to her old bubbly personality), the lady tried her best to open her up again. “Give me a pretty smile like you used to, hm?” she would always ask, and after a few months, this did happen, and things seemed to go normally, now that she had a family again. It was one of the happiest times in her life.
After a few years, things went downhill yet again. One night, when the father was completely drunk and out of his mind, he got angry over something stupid (she couldn’t remember what it was), and he tried killing everyone in the house. All the kids were able to escape and bring back the police, but by the time they got there, the mother was dead, and the father had shot himself. After spending the night in some guest rooms at the police station, the kids had just enough time to exchange ways of communication. The next day, they were separated and taken to new foster homes, this time with completely and recent clean records.
After some more years past, Katherine was in a normal school in 8th grade, greatly improved despite her past. However, she is still scared to reach out to others, since so far she had lost every one who she had been connected with one way or another. Usually very reserved except to a select few, her counselor noticed this school and thought it to be a good future high school for her.
A Picture: 
Pet(s), if any: None.
Classes (up to 10): Math, Music, Spanish ((Has some prior knowledge since one of the kids she lived with was Hispanic, and she’s taken a few Spanish classes in middle school)) , French, Communications (technology), Art, English Literature
Clubs/Teams: Snowball Fight Team, Drama Club, Choir
Other: Kiki loves music and the theater; they always seem to be good outlets for her. She always finds it interesting to act as another for even a few moments, and this is usually when you can get the most out of her. She still has pictures of both her old families (the third one she doesn't connect with much), as well as an old doll, her most prized possession. It’s a old porcelian (sp?) doll, which has been taken very good care of over the years. It’s like her non-human best friend.
Overall, she gets upset easily, but will sometimes defend herself with a nice comeback. Although usually quiet, once one gets past the hard shell and she is befriended, she is a very good friend who will stick up for that person, and they become her part of her true family.
As for a career, she loves the different languages and how they work, so a translator is always an option. ((Meh, this is almost the same one as in another RP that STILL hasn't started, and it's been over a week. So I'll try here so I can build up her personality a bit. Um, do I just put suggestions in this section? If not, just ignore this... -Drama Club))

((Np. I'll edit the clubs on my RP profile after this post...
Which I had to type again cause something went wrong and it wouldn't save. gonk ))
A small red car drove up to the front of the school, where the parking lot was currently almost empty. The sun was just starting to get higher into the sky, as if in anticipation of the big day.
Two people emerged from the front of the car; the driver was a man in his late 30s, with a bright colored hawaiian shirt, jeans and new shoes, with glasses and a bubbly attitude. The other was a small girl with two purple eyes (which were scanning the school's surroundings), with long hair, a white blouse and bluish-purple skirt and hat. This was Katherine Rosette. After getting a good look around from where she stood, she headed to the trunk of the car and opened it, removing her two suitcases.
"Ya sure you got everything you need? I can run by the store real quick if you need something." offered the man, as he was helping to remove her suitcases. This was actually her most recent foster father. He and his wife Maria were her parents the past two months, and for the first time ever, she was the only foster kid they had at the moment. Maria was getting out of the hospital after spraining her wrist from a bad spill down the stairs. The injuries would have been worse, if Kiki ahd not stopped her from falling completely down the stairs. He asked her this as he was helping to remove her suitcases.
She smiled at his kindness; for the first time since her biological father, thsi guy wasn't a complete idiot. "Thanks, but I'm sure I have everything I need, sir." seh answered in her usual sweet and quiet voice.
The man laughed and shook his head in bemusement at her response. "Ah, Kiki, Kiki, Kiki." he said with a grin, as he ruffled her hair a bit. "Just cause I've only known you for a couple of months, doesn't mean you gotta be so formal with me! I'm not the formal kind of guy!" he added as the girl re-straightened her funny hat. He helped her to carry her bags into the school (which she had prostested kindly, but he refused to let her carry them both) and to the help desk. As he asked questions to the lady, Kiki scanned the area. It was a very nice school; clean halls, shiny floors, and there was a plesant smell, one she couldn't put her finger on. THere were various posters and pictures on the walls, some majestic looking...
"Thank you miss." he answered the woman, and he handed Kiki her room key. "Well, I'd better head to get Maria. We'll both try to keep in touch with you as much as we can!" he told her. As he gave her a final hug, he whispered in her ear: "Just relax, you'll be just fine." he whispered kindly. He then checked his watch, looked surprised, and went out the door in a hurry. She grinned; he was quite comical.
Carrying her bags, she stared at the school map as she made her way to the dorms.

Alex looked down the hallway once more, spotting a girl with his luggage. Someone he hadn't seen before, which wasn't uncommon due to how few people he actually did know. Sighing, he saw she was looking at a map, no doubt of the school. Being the helpful kind, probably due to his mom's career choice, he began walking over, stopping his strumming. Arriving beside her he began walking in-step, looking over the map before finally clearing his throat. "You need help?" He asked, cramming his hands into his pockets and looking forward, down the forked hallways which were easy to get lost in. Thankfully he had taken his time to get the layout stuck into his head.
