Sitting here sipping on my tea, I realized that I haven't updated for you recently. My apologies, I lost 5 chapters when my computer completely fried. But, I finally have gotten another one. When we left off, Bella had just arrived at FU and was on her way to the registrar's office.

So everyone, without further ado, let's see what college has in store for Bella. I do not own Twilight or any of Stephanie's characters, but there are a few of my own creation. Enjoy, and comment! Please read the A/N at the end of the chapter for any important announcements.

Much Love,

This is it. She thought to herself as she crossed the threshold.

It was early orientation time, so there were students bustling around. Correction, there were freshmen who looked more nervous than anything walking around trying to figure out where they were and what they were supposed to be doing. Out of everyone there, you could tell just who thought they belonged, and who felt more out of place than anything. Deciding she was one of the few who actually belonged there, Bella squared her shoulders and pushed through the door and into the small office in front of her.

"Hello, Dear. My name is Erika. Is there anything I can help you with?" asked a small woman behind the desk.

"Yes Ma'am, my name is Bella Swan and I was just wondering where I needed to go to get my rooming assignment and class schedule."

"Oh! Well, welcome to the University of Florida. Let me see what I have for you." She began rustling through the papers on her desk.

Bella stood there looking around.

I can't believe I'm actually here. She thought to herself.

"Excuse me, Miss?" Erika asked, pulling Bella out of her day dream.

"Wha- Oh yeah. I'm sorry, what was the question?" Bella asked.

"I said that I have an Isabella Marie. Would that be you?"

"Oh, yes. Sorry. I had forgotten that I had used my full, proper name. I'm so used to being called Bella." She said with a smile.

"Well, it looks like your packet is full, so I am assuming that you are one of our most promising freshmen this year?"

"Yes Ma'am." Bella said with a smile.

Erika pulled out three papers and began talking Bella through them.

"So this one here is your rooming assignment. Based on your GPA and SAT scores, it looks like you have been placed in our academic village, which is located right outside of campus. While it is not considered on campus, the village is still owned and operated by the school. This means that school policy still applies there. This has your building code, it looks like you will be in building 4 suite B, your ID, which serves as a key, your room number, your roommate and your suite mates. There are four students to a suite, and two to a room. You will share a kitchen, living area, and half bath with all of the girls in the suite. Each room has two full sized beds, an entertainment center, a full bathroom, and two closets. At the end of each semester, your suite will undergo inspection before you are allowed to leave campus. Before the year ends, you will be required to pay any damage fees before you are allowed to move on to the next year. Now, if you cannot go home for whatever reason, you may pay a monthly rent, and utility bill and stay in the apartment. If for whatever reason your grades, or GPA fall below a 4.0, the school reserves the right to relocate you to a less prestigious dorm. I just need you to sign this waiver saying that I explained everything and you understand the policy."

Bella smiled as she signed the paper. She was what many would consider rich, even though the only people who knew it was her, and her parents. Meaning that when her grandparents died, being the only grandchild, all assets were left to her in their will. She had never dipped into the account, choosing to only use what she felt she had earned by working summer jobs, but now that she knew that she could indeed live in Florida right off of campus 24/7, she was beginning to rethink it.

"This form is your class schedule. You will have 2 copies of it. It looks like you have a rather light first semester, though." Erika said puzzled.

"I took most of my beginner classes at the local community college in my town. All of the credits transferred, so I am a semester ahead. Next semester, I will start focusing on my major and minor." Bella replied.

"Oh, well congratulations. I don't have many freshmen come through here that are so far ahead and well adjusted. Well anyways, if you look at the back of your schedule, you'll see you're your professors have already provided a list of all of the materials you will be responsible for in their class. I suggest that after you move in you go ahead and get to the bookstore to purchase everything. The earlier you get there; the better chance you have of getting newer copies of everything. The bookstore opens at 7:30 in the morning and closes every day at 6 p.m. and is not open at all on Sundays. It is the responsibility of our office will inform you well in advance if a class you are in has been changed or if there are any updates to your schedule. If I can just get you to sign here, I'll move on to your next and last form!"

Bella signed the paperwork, ready to get to her suite and begin unpacking.

"Okay, our last form is the school's academic policy and guidelines. I'll just get you to read through them really quick and sign at the bottom. On the first day of each class, your professor will go over these more in depth."

Signing the last form and getting a map from Erika, Bella left the office with a huge smile on her face. She was on cloud nine. At least she was, until she heard the horn of a car and looked up to see a small silver car slamming on breaks to avoid hitting her.

Author's Ending Note:

Well, that is it for this chapter. I hope to answer any questions you have next chapter. Now for the important stuff. I am sure that FU doesn't actually operate this way. I am really writing about my college's process and applying it to a college that I am sure more people have heard of. I am always open to advice and help. If you actually know how FU operates, feel free to Private Message me and help me out! Thanks for reading everyone!

Until Next Time,
