I have thought about it and I think this is perfect! biggrin We, who have our characters in a college setting at all, should RP together. The point of this is that we will have already known each other when we get to the Island. The other point is to make some background on our characters happen. Like, pretend that you have just gotten into this college and now you need some friends. Well, this RP won't carry on once we get to the island, but if someone does go to the island, than we will just be like, "What happened to him/her? They haven't been at school for blah blah blah weeks." if you get what I am saying. So this is really just for those of you whos characters are in college. biggrin If you aren't in college, you can still come in as like a visitor and visit us that are in it. Anyways, now onto the rules! biggrin
Rules:
1. You kinda have to be in college or at least thinking of coming into the college. ((So your charater can actually be a student, or if they are old enough and their occupation is a teacher, than thats fine too.))
2. Use (()) when OOC.
3. If you just want to RP and you don't want us to know you when we all get to the island, than just say so in (()) on your first post! biggrin You can still RP...you don't HAVE to know us if it isn't part of your history. biggrin
4. Have fun! biggrin
That should be it. Here we go! biggrin

It was a new year at her college. She woke up and it was her second year at the college going there to be a music teacher. She got up quickly and took a shower. She got out and flung on her daily clothing and ran outside and got into her car. She looked around and backed out of the driveway. Then she was off to college.
When she got there she didn't recognize everyone, all of her friends had gone to different colleges since then and she was left alone, to make new friends. She hated this part of school. A new year, new friend making, she hated it. She liked the point of schooling and the importance of it, but she just didn't like how she had to do things the first few weeks. She went through half the school day until lunch trying to befriend the teachers, asking them questions about what they did before they became a college teacher. That is just what she did.

James was sitting in the quad. He was wearing his signature pair of dirt smuged jeans and blue and red plad overshirt with a white undershirt. He was a music major that was working for a ranch near where he lived. He had out his trombone and was playing some jazz when Annelissa walked by. He stopped mid measure and tapped her on her shoulder with his slide. "I've seen you around campus before. I'm James. May I ask your name." He said as he got up and extended his hand to shake with her.

Seeing as the man liked music, or so she thought, she looked at him and smiled, grabbing his hand and saying, "I'm Annelissa Devero. I see you have a trombone there? How long have you been playing?" she asked. She loved the music of anythign and was attracted, in a friendly way, to people who played different instruments.
She looked at him over again and kept smiling.

James chuckled and shook with her. He set his trombone down. "Well depends on which instrument you are asking. Trombone begining of ninth grade. So do you play any instruments?" He was glad she knew what it was called he had dated a few girls who didn't even knkow what brass was.

"Yes! I do actually. I play piano, keyboard, organ, they are all pretty much the same thing." She said with enthusiasm. She was happy she might make a new friend on the first day. This had never happend before so she was somewhat excited to see how this would turn out. "I'm glad you do play and instrument." she said still smiling.

"I'm just glad it isn't my only instrument. I play plenty. Give me a section and I'll give you two instruments that I play from it." He was smiling. He liked her. He might be able to hold a conversation that didn't involve something that he didn't care about.

She began to giggle. She liked him just as much as she thinked he liked her. They got off to a great start so far. Hopefully she could keep this conversation up. "Uhh, what in the 'strings' group?" She asked interested.

"Total in strings I play Base, Base Guitar, Violin, and Acustic Guitar" He sat back down and pat the seat next to him. "Sit" He told her as he started to put his trombone away. He opened the case and started to lube the slide

She did feel somewhat uncomfortable, but she did as he said. She sat. She turned toward him and got more comfortable sitting there. "Wow, fascinating. Do you play the drums? Or what about anything with keys, like the piano?" she asked. She had many questions for him but kept them to herself until he answered the ones that she had already asked.

James finnished putting his trombone away and stood. "I do play drums both as percousion and as set. I play piano and keyboard also." He picked up his case. "I got to go put this away. Will you still be here when I get back?"

"Uhhh, yeah, sure I guess." she said as if she was going to be stood up. She looked at him and smiled. She believed that he would return so she nodded and said it again, "Yeah, I will still be here." She then looked at the ground and said, "See ya in a bit then, James." Then she looked at the ground and looked around her just to enjoy the scenery while he was gone.

"Cool. I'll be right back" James turned around and walked to the parking lot. He scratched at the stubble on his chin as he put his trombone into the trunk of his car. It was over crowded with instruments and he had to be very careful. He shut it and then looked into the side mirrors. He checked his hair and made sure the short hair didn't make him look dorky. Sadly there was nothing he could do about the freckles on his nose. Then he started to walk back.

Annelissa watched as he was coming back. She looked at him. He was a good looking guy she thought and she liked his personality and the fact that he played so many instruments. She wished at that point that she could carry out that many insrtuments. But then she realized that she loved to play the piano and that was all. She loved all the other instruments too, it was just that she had been around the piano for such a much longer time that nothing could take it's place.
She looked back at him and saw him coming. She quickly fixed her hair and straightend her hat as he was walking up.

James walked up. "Want to go grab a cup of coffee? I'm buying." He held out his hand to help her up. He smiled a bright smile. His classes were over and he didn't know if hers were but he intened to find out.
