I was gonna wait. There's a lot of people that I know would like to join, and I dont want them to come in late. Also, lets start a week before school starts. From past experience 95% of the story takes place either in the dorms, or the hospital, so we need to sort out whos rooming with who and what not. Lets wait a little longer.

.... go post Matt on original BS.... We're making a year, for crying out loud!

And I'm still gonna jump on this one /)_-

Name: Marianne Silver Northwood

Age: 16

Grade: 10

Gender: Female

Physical Appearance:
-Nationality: Brittish. Was this in Maine? Though, the accent isn't very noticeable.
-Height: 1,67 cm.
-Weight: 57 kgs.
-Hair: Blond/Brownish
-Eyes: Greenish/blue
-Picture: http://i1004.photobucket.com/albums/af1 ... jess/a.jpg

Spoiler! :
-

Other:She has some athletic built, because she practices tennis daily.

Style of Dress: I'll clear that up =D There's this site, polyvore, on which you can get outfits together, and so I shall post a link to whatever she shall be wearing at the moment in my posts.

Personality: Maria is easy going, and very friendly. Unfortunately, when she gets down, she gets really down. She also has a thing for drinking, and she does some b
ad stuff when she's drunk (like sleeping with her best friend's boyfriend on the day before her birthday while having a boyfriend. Yeaaah, that was one sick party). She can also play the piano professionally, and that is a big factor in her life.
And quoted from original character sheet: She is though. When some one messes with her, she replies and acts like nothing hurts her, but when she's alone, she brakes to pieces. She's cheerful, competitive, and tries to be fair. She loves depressing music and almost anything that's depressing. She's like two persons that live in two worlds: to her friends she's ok and acts friendly and cheerful; in her world she cries way too much and likes to suffer.

-Weaknesses and Flaws: She is seriously attached to her closest friends. She'd do anything for them. She can be stubborn and bossy.

-Likes/Interests/Skills: Maria can sing really well, play the piano (as mentioned above), play tennis, watching movies, laying on a calm place watching the sky with her iPod. Stuff like that ^.^

-Dislikes: Heights, too sunny days

History: She was born in England. She has no siblings, though she might have a cousin in hand, and some old friends. Her mom divorced her dad after a 15 year marriage, and she moved away with her mom and a few millions. Her father owns a big company and is always trying to get Maria to go and live with him. So, he gives her everything she wants, but usually wants something back.

Family/Friends: Lizz, May is one of Maria's best friends! And Shannon, if she drops by. Plus, if Bishop appears, Chad is her boyfriend. Period. I don't want them to break up <.<

Pets: Nope.

Up for Love? Only for Chad <.< If he doesn't appear, then she's free as a dove.

Other: If I remember somethin', I'll edit.
Piglet: How do you spell love?
Pooh: You don't spell it. You feel it.

Name: Anellise Jade Thompson (Nickname: Ace (which her brother calls her, and a few close friends) Jay which everyone else calls her usually because she's not a fan of her name.



Age: 16



Grade: 11



Gender: Female



Physical Appearance:

-Nationality: irish/American

-Height: 5'5"
-Weight: around 110

-Hair: Red

-Eyes: Deep Blue

-Picture: http://i692.photobucket.com/albums/vv290/darkfaerie55/faerie_tales/red-hair-girl.jpg (best I could do)
-Other: She's curvy and slender, but not one to show it.



Style of Dress: She normally wears jeans (any type) and a t-shirt, with a jacket over that. Sometimes she'll wear dance or sport cloths too. Or sweat pants. Whatever fits her and is comfortable.



Personality: She's easy to get along with. Sometimes she might seem distant and quite but she's lovable and kind. She usually cares more for others than herself. She loves to have fun and finding ways to bend rules if she doesn't see them fit. She can seem like a tomboy, and acts like one. She can also be very talkative too. She's flexible with her personality. Also very smart. She lacks the confidence in herself thought, to really show her talents, thanks to her dad.

-Weaknesses and Flaws: As afore mentioned she puts others before herself. She has a tough time trusting herself with things and feelings. She usually keeps parts of her reserved and hidden. I guess you could call it part of her true self.

-Likes/Interests/Skills: She loves to climb or dance. She lives music, writing and reading. She can play piano and violin, and she is smart and she likes to sing. Although she refuses to admit these things. Loves food. Anything creative she loves. She also loves to write and direct some films, although she doesn't get the time to do that much.

-Dislikes: Overly opinionated people.



History: (It has to be brief sorry) Her mom always pushed her to be something she didn't want, meaning her intellectual side. Her father used to be mentally abusive and left when she was 12. They moved to Maine to get away from her father, and she was put into the boarding school because her mother put her there, not having time to deal with her and trying to get a divorce.



Family/Friends/Pets: She has an older brother and a mother.



Up for Love? Yuppers.



Other: (Anything you think doesn't fit anywhere else)

Name: Duncan Francis Brady



Age: 17



Grade: 11



Gender: male



Physical Appearance:

-Nationality: Irish American

-Height: 6'2

-Weight: 230

-Hair: Golden Brown

-Eyes: Jade green

-Picture: http://tinkerbell7373.deviantart.com/art/hot-man-43731732

-Other: Thin and lithe with wide shoulders



Style of Dress: He usually wears an Elements tee shirt and slightly baggy jeans, but they don't sag so much that you see his but. He usually wears Converse sneakers and he has a small ear ring in his left ear.



Personality: He's a happy go lucky kind of guy who tries to make the best out of life.

-Weaknesses and Flaws: (No ones perfect. Include phobias too.)

-Likes/Interests/Skills: He likes to read a lot. He loves skateboarding and snowboarding. He's also really good at rollerblading. He's good at making food too.

-Dislikes: He hates it when people are fake and hates seeing best friends hate each other over something stupid. He's terrified of hurricanes because he was in New Orleans when Hurricane Katrina struck.



History: Duncan has an interesting family history. His mother, Adele is French and his father, Robert, was Irish. Both of them came to America when they were first married, so Anton is the first generation Irish American. He is very close with his family and sees them whenever he can. He was brought up Catholic, but considers himself more Protastant, much to his mother's chagrin. A few years ago, Duncan went with his father to New Orleans to help him repair some old buildings. They were only there for a few days when Katrina struck. He and his father stayed in the Super Dome and waited out the storm. They were able to leave two weeks later, but soon after they got home, Duncan's father got really sick from a disease that was carried in the water. Robert died a week after he got home. Duncan was never quite the same again. For about a year, Duncan was secluded. He wouldn't go out of his house. His mother finally convinced him that they needed to move on, so Duncan tried. He's much better and happier now, and he always wears his father's cross and ring.



Family/Friends/Pets: His mother, six cousins on his mother's side and sixteen on his father's. He has two best friends, Jared and Kip. He has one dog, a Ridge back named Mac.



Up for Love? Most definitely
We're all a bit mad...

Name: Jonathan Granadas

Age: 17

Grade: 11th

Gender: Male

Physical appearance:
Hair: Dark brown that falls just below the ears and into his eyes.
Eyes: Brown flecked with bits of green
Nationality: Hispanic/American
Height: 6'4''
Weight: 165
Other: Tall, althetic build

Style of dress: Basketball shorts and plain either white of gray shirts. Never wears skinny jeans, but like old, worn out blue jeans. Either wears that or the basketball shorts.

Personality: Trouble-maker. Class clown. He's constantly joking and, although he's extremely smart (been known to make straight A's), he doesn't really care. He make's A's on the test, but never does the homework because he's too lazy. He would rather hang out with his friends. Not afraid to try anything. He's a daredevil. (;

Weakness: He doesn't know when to quite. He is hardly ever serious. Been to jail once, for vandalizing the mall with a group of his friends. Afraid of death, mostly because most of his family is dead. Both his parents, their siblings and etc. Lives with his father's mother. (One of his only living relatives. And he's really lazy. :)

Likes: Math. He is especially good in math. Though, as mentioned, too lazy to do his work. He also likes music. Music is his life. Plays the gutair almost constantly.

Dislikes: People. People in general aggravate him. Mostly the depressed kids who as he thinks "acts like the world owes them something." He can't stand anyone who is fake or stabs him in the back because he doesn't really beileve in second chances.

History: Jonathan's dad was hispanic. From Peru, South America. He met Jonathan's mother there when she was "traveling the world." When Jonathan was conceived his father ran. And his mother later found out that he died in a shooting not too long after. When Jonahan was eleven years old, his mother died of pancreatic cancer. Rare, for her, but highly dangerous. His grandmother on his father's side, was really his only family left and she took him in without question. He learned spanish, fluently, with her. He only knew a little from his mother. He actually loves and and she loves him too. She's very rich, but hides it frommost people, which Jonathan does as well.

Family/Friends/Pets: His grandmother is the only family he knows of and he doesn't really mind that. Or so he says. (;. He had lots of "friends" but never had a true friend. He makes people laugh, he plays the gutair (very well, too), and he plays basketball, so it draws attention. But most people are so superficail. He doesn't ever get "close" to them. One reason is because he's scared to. He has a huge German Shepard named Charlie. Man's best friends. (;

Up for Love? Of course. Well, he's up for realtionships. But good luck actually trying to reach him on a really deep level. It'll be hard to get close to him. (;

Here's my profile! :D

Name: James William Carter "Jim"



Age: 17



Grade: 11



Gender: Male



Physical Appearance:

-Nationality: British ~ Scottish

-Height: 6ft 1"

-Weight: Medium build, not stocky, but not massively slim either. Weight unspecified.

-Hair: Dark Brown.

-Eyes: Blue-grey.

-Picture:
Spoiler


-Other: He is slightly tanned, but more fair-skinned overall. He never wears rings, necklaces etc and has surprisingly white teeth ~ they're his pride and joy.



Style of Dress: Shirt and tie. He likes to be casual, but posh. He's smart looking and scrubbed up. Not up his bum about it, but he likes that kind of dress sense.


Personality/History: He comes from a rich background, but hates it. He'd never pride himself in being spoilt and was a proper menace when he was growing up. He loved the outdoors and playing army men. He used to get everything muddy and come home late after a bit of role playing in the woods with his mates. This eventually aspired into paintball fights as he got older and he's a sucker for a good shoot-out.

-Weaknesses and Flaws: He's scared of making the wrong impressions and nervous because of it. If he ever "liked" a girl he'd scamper in fear at the idea that he'd mess up. So he rarely talks to them. Though, he is confident when they talk to him. Not too bright, but not stupid.

-Likes/Interests/Skills: Loves cricket & rugby and always aspired to be in the army. He's a quick thinker, despite not being to academicly bright. A very-good leader and has a natural appeal of taking charge of problematic situations. Loves a good laugh with the lads.

-Dislikes: Saucey foods and independant sports, like tennis or darts. He also doesn't particularly enjoy shopping ~ unless it involves a good laugh...



History (Continued...): As well as being a rebel in his childhood, Jim applied for a place at Sandhurst during his transaction to College. Upon the day he was about to be accepted and begin training to become an officer in the Royal Army, his mother and father felt they needed to move to America for business. He was gutted and truly believes his dreams have been shattered.


Family: Mum and Dad constantly working, but like to spoil him. He hates it and wishes he could be in Sandhurst.

Friends: Loves everyone and gets along with anyone. Not picky, but nervous around the ladies.

Pets: None and doesn't have the best relationships with dogs.



Up for Love? Yes, but this is one of his flaws.



Other: (I'll add more after dinner... :) )
