Well, here I am.
At La Fiesta Tech College, settling down to four years of hard studying.
Yes, I know, I could have chosen Sim State University, or even Academie Le Tour, but I felt it necessary to branch out to somewhere quite diverse.
And you can't get any "diverse" than LFT!!!!
It's got quite the partying reputation, so I've been informed, but that's not exactly why I chose LFT. It also has one of the best resources for the Arts and Sciences.
And as my LTW (Life Time Want) has been altered to Media Magnate, I find it only fitting to choose Art as my Major.
I had a tough decision to make, obviously, as I could also have opted for Philosophy. But I feel that Art is more my forte.
Here's the dorm I'll be staying at (provided I'm not poached into a Fraternity).
It's small, I know, but I was extremely lucky to find a vacancy, as the college season is just beginning.
It houses myself and four other dorm buddies, whom I'll get to in a minute.
Obviously, the desert terrain is a whole world away from the lushness of Riverblossom, but I can't see that affecting my studying.
No siree.
And now to my dorm buddies. I chatted only briefly to a few of them, as time marched onwards and one or all of us had to attend class.
The first one to show up was Cleve Inada, sporting one really sharp punk hairdo.
....... interesting........
I never got the chance to talk to him, as he had to rush off for class. But never mind. I'll catch up with him later.
Lila Kratz was next, to claim her dorm.
She gave me the impression of being a strong, determined career woman
....... and it showed......
Her interests are: Work, herself (how vain) and travel.
Dorian Long turned up next, with his bandanna and ponytail.
After a quick chat, it appears that his interests are: Himself (obviously, by the hair), sodas, sport (especially baseball) and food, his favourite being fried eggs.
Lastly, there was Tiffany Pai, sporting a heavily decorated kimono.
(apparently she'd just attended one of those global conferences and loved the outfit so much that she wanted to wear it permanently)
Her interests are: Security/banking, Money (and lots of it) and she's extremely passionate about factories (she hopes to own one one day)
I've yet to meet our dorm chef Lora Petty, but I've already felt the presence of the feuding mascots.
Oh yes, their reputations precede them.
First to turn up was Hun Louie, the Llama Mascot. He got on famously with Dorian, chatting about Majors etc.
Then, appearing from the horizon, with a slouch to the shoulders and a determined step.....
..... came Holden Tellerman, the Cow Mascot.
I didn't get the opportunity to see if they had one of their infamous brawls in the dorm, as I only had just enough time to grab a quick snack before heading off to my first class.
So I'll leave you for now. And catch up with you after class, when I'll tell you a bit more about the new people I've met, including the Professors from my Art class.
Oh, before I go though, I did have one VERY early visitor.
Amber Raymond from the Garden Club.
We grabbed a snack together (this cooking's not a patch on Mom's, but it fills an empty stomach), and even though I told her that I didn't think I was Garden Club material, she was persistent.
Oh well, never mind.
So I'll catch up with you all later.
Signing out
Ambrose
