Rose walked up the front steps, and sighed slightly before she crossed the threshold.
I'm a college student.
Rose let a stream of air out, still amazed she was here. She didn't have the greatest grades, or have money, but none the less, a letter in the mail came for her from Bad Wolf University. It didn't tell her why she was accepted, how she out of thousands upon thousand of applicants from around the world was chosen. She didn't even apply.
Her mom wished her luck and dropped her off a the gate, which was the furthest a non student could go. Rose walked up the steps with only a knapsack and single suitcase at her side. The never ending tunnel finally ended, and opened up to a huge quad the size of entire apartment building, full of trees, grass, and concrete. On all four sides of the quad are extremely tall and wide building, boxing the quad.
People were scattered everywhere, friends greeting friends, and people looking for specific buildings. Rose looked at her map, The building with the tunnel to the front she just used is the Crespallion building, to the left is the Gallifrey building, the building opposite of her is the Trenzalore building, and to her right is the Skaro building. The Gallifrey, Trenzalore, and Skaro buildings all have tunnels that lead to even more campus.
Rose sighed. Her assigned room was 2005 in the Gallifrey building. Rose monuvered herself through the quad, and to an elevator. It took her up to the 20th floor, and there were 21 floors.
She felt slightly sick.
She walked down the hall and at the very end sat her room, although the hallways looked a bit untouched. She fished for her key, and unlocked the door, and gasped in shock.
She had been told that she would not get a roommate, so naturally she assumed she would get a cramped little room, not that she's complaining. This room, though, was gigantic. It was more than 10xs the space of her previous room! The door was in the lower left hand corner of the room, right to her left was a door to a bathroom with a shower, tub, and toilet, lining the wall opposite of her were about ten bookshelves, a desk, and ten addition book shelves, all lined with books. Next to the last bookshelves was a nightstand, then a Queen bed in the upper right hand corner of the room. Right where the foot of the bed ended, was a sliding glass door way to a terrace. A bloody terrace.
On the right wall is a flat screen TV with a large couch in front of it, although quite a ways away from the bed and bookshelves. The floor is carpeted in with brown and white splattering carpet, and Rose looked at her room with wide eyes.
They must have given me the wrong room. She said to herself.
Rose closed the door behind her, put her suit case to the side of the door, and took of her shoes. Noticing a landline on her nightstand, she called the housing office.
After mass insisting on Rose's part, the housing lady assured her that this room is hers. Why? Her mind kept persisting. Why do I of all people get into this school without applying, or paying, and why do they give me a room like this?
Rose started unpacking, although she didn't have much she wanted to take. She hung her clothes in the closet, set up her alarm clock on her nightstand, plugged in her phone, put everything necessary in the bathroom, and got ready for bed.
Home sweet home. She said nervously in her head before falling asleep.

The incessant blaring of her alarm clock caused her to get up. Rose looked at the time, 7 a.m. Rose jumped up, and got ready in a flash, by 7:20 she was out the door. Although the quad yesterday was teeming with life, Rose had yet to see a single person in this 21 storied building. As she exited the Gallifrey building, she looked at her schedule:

Three classes, not bad for one day. Although, she didn't sign up for Quantum Physics, Archeology, or Beginner's Med. Rose starting walking to the Crespalllion building. She inside the building with people rushing about, and went into a cramped elevator. She walked into class and took a seat in the middle.
Students filed in, and the last one in was struggling on where to sit. Almost all the tables were gone, except one or two scattered throughout the room. One that just happen to be next to her. She waved her hand, and pointed to the seat next to her. He sat down and smiled gratefully at her.
"Thanks." He said, "I'm Rory."
Shaking his hand, she said, "I'm Rose. Pleasure to find you a seat."
They both chuckled a bit before Ms. Wright called the class's attention to the front.

After History and Physics, Rose and Rory were walking in the quad. They both had twenty minutes 'til there next class, but Rory had intro to fashion while Rose had English.
"I'm not judging, but Intro to Fashion?" Rose asked with her eyebrows to the sky.
Rory blushed, "They must've had a hiccup on my schedule, 'cuz I didn't sign up for that class."
Rose nodded, "I know what you me-,"
Suddenly everything went black.
