The Dover Courtyard.. |

:: Sighs a bit, more of a relieved sigh than anything else. Puts the suitcase down, and walks in, looking around slowly. Looks over to the bed nearest the window, and picks up the suitcase moving it there. Wipes her hands on her jeans, and pulls out her lap-top from it's bag, turning it on. Looks outside the window for a moment at the bustling quad of Dover::
I did want to come here. I guess that's more then some people can say. My name is Alexis Calaway. Some people call me Alex, Lexis, Lex, Calaway, and I prefer all of the above. It doesn't really matter to me. I'm a sixteen year old girl, now here at Dover. I used to live in New Orleans, Lousiana. My mom owned a few restaurants down there, and I did live quite the life. I just, I needed to escape, I needed to be by myself and get away from the sex-drugs-alcohol vibe that New Orleans gives off so proudly. I do love Lousiana, but I wanted to come to Dover to challenge myself, and of course, I get a much better shot of getting into college. My dad and I refuse to speak to eachother. Well, I'll rephrase that. I won't talk to him. He is just a pitiful father, but I've moved on from him, and from all that pain. I do love my mama. She works really hard, and treats me to the life she thinks I deserve. I know she wants whats best for me, and I know she saw that at Dover, so I suppose a part of me is doing this because I want to make her proud. ::chuckles a bit at what a mama's girl I must sound like, but continues to write anyways: I do enjoy one thing though. Painting. Whether that be on the violin, guitar, piano or canvas. I love to play my instruments. My Uncle played in this tiny jazz club down in New Orleans, and since I was two has tought me to play these different instruments. My personal favorite is the Piano. I think it's what I'm best at. I also love to paint. I like to paint a lot. I spend most of my time painting in fact. I hope I get to meet new people, and experience new things. Here's to Dover :: smiles, clicking the update button and turning off her laptop. Opens the window, and goes back to unpacking::
