University Log:

The end of high school and seven weeks off

I'm back again, o would have uploaded sooner but I think all my teachers had something about me last week and I've been getting non stop homework, that and I'm supposed to be training for my Tae Kwon do grading which is on Wednesday. Oh well. The nest few chapters will be quite short and told through the characters diary entries, it will hopefully get better when I get to week two.

Chapter 1.1 (aka, day 1, week 1)

Legolas:

Okay, I've just found out that my entire childhood was a lie. You see I was living under this pretence of having quite a normal father and normal advisors but oh, how wrong I was. My dad had decided he wants to spend a load of 'father son' time together before I leave for uni but the thing is, he's REALLY strange!

Add that to the fact that tonight I walked in on my fathers chief advisor, his assistant, the head chef and our seneschal playing naked twister and you have a rather group of people. Let's just say that that's a sight I won't forget in a hurry, seeing as it will never leave my nightmares.

What's happened to all the normality! I only got back this morning and already I've been confused, scared and thoroughly disturbed. (Seriously, it was naked twister, oh that image will never leaver me)

It can't get any weirder though…can it?

Elladan:

Everyone is completely busy, no one is paying any attention to Elrohir or me, we are being left to our own devices and no one has bothered us all day!

THIS IS GREAT!

We've played scrabble six times, gone for a long walk in the gardens and I even got Elrohir to sit and read a book. If the rest of the seven weeks is like this I'm going to be in heaven! Though I don't understand why Elrohir keeps running away. He said he was going to the bathroom and I didn't see him again for four hours. Stupid brother, he just can't see the greatness of scrabble.

Elrohir:

I'M BORED!

Melpomaen:

For once in my life, I really don't have anything to write. That's probably because I haven't left my room all day but who can blame me. I walk in the door and I have an argument with my parents, I unpack my stuff and I have an argument with my parents, I walk into the kitchen and I have a bloody argument with my parents! Sometimes I wonder why I even bother coming home.

It's always the same argument too, 'Look at those clothes', 'what's wrong with your face', 'Is that another piercing!' Apparently proper young boys don't walk around looking like demons, wearing makeup and punching holes through their faces. But I really don't care.

Hence the reason I'm in here, after three arguments in the space of two hours I had just had enough so I slammed my door, locked myself in and have been playing Judas priest and Metalica extremely loudly ever since. How I'm gona put up with seven weeks of this I don't know, I might have to run away. I got a pleading phone call from Elrohir earlier so I could go and save him from Elladan, but then again Elladan may end up bribing me into playing scrabble if I do that. On second thoughts, I may be safer in my room.

Lindir:

As soon as I got in, all hell let lose, my mum was shouting and on the verge of tears and my sister was screaming back while playing Destiny's child on full volume. My mum took one look at me hugged me and begged me to sort her out before walking straight out the door saying something about a sedative. Turns out my sister's boyfriend of five years just dumped her. Though how she could have had a boyfriend that long and still only just be going into year ten I don't know.

I managed to calm her down and she told me what happened before convincing me to sit in front of the TV, eat chocolate ice cream and watch chick flicks with her…I think I can see what I'll be doing for seven weeks.

Haldir:

Rumil is so boring! I got home and he was gardening and the first thing he said was 'don't disturb Orophin.' He has poor Orophin revising for his GCSE's during the holiday. He's going into year 11, not going off to university and he's already almost a straight A student. I mean, look at me, I'm off to uni and I haven't even thought of looking through my syllabus or at what I need to learn and I'm not bothered. It's the holidays! Then he had the cheek to throw me out of the house; apparently I'm too colourful and will distract Orophin! I told him to take a chill pill and he just threw some money at me and told me not to come back until after dinner. He's not that much older than me. I think he's just jealous because he dropped out of uni. Oh well, tomorrow starts my plan to free Orophin and I may even try to get Rumil to chill out a bit…either that or I'll really piss him off by making a load of long distance phone calls to my friends, in fact I think I'll do that.
