I'm in! You should show those guys at Insim how to run a proper Highschool!

((I vote for a new thread ))

OOC: I hope you feel better soon trampled. I dunno if the boarding school type thing would work, it's mostly private schools and stuff that are boarding ones. I think we're okay as is

((Aww, thanks! with all you guys supporting me, I'm sure I'll be fine.
And that's totally cool with me, slytheringirl. Just throwing it out there in case others wanted that and I was ignoring them. xD ))

(( I vote for a new thread as well, that'd make it easier for me to get back on track I am not sure about the whole boarding school thing, but that could be interesting!
Hope you recover soon, trampled! ))

((Nah, I agree on the public school. You get a bigger mix of individuals in 'em, imho. Alrighty! I'll probably post the new thread today. I think I'm going to give it a name differing from this one, just to distinguish it as a new one, but still linked to this one. Maybe something like the name of the school? For example:

Brooklake High School: Where Cliques Collide
instead of High School: A True Reality


Yeah? Any suggestions are welcome, as always. ))

((Sweet Sixteen: The school life Nah, don't have a great idea, but your's sounds nice ... Although it could get mixed up with the story "when cliques collide" ...
But we definately need a new name! ))

((Oh yeah... I forgot about that story!! Nevermind then. XD I was just trying to incorporate the clique thing into the title, but that could get very confusing indeed... and I think your title might be better!! Everyone has to be the same age, and 16 is a good one.

Maybe...
Sweet Sixteen: Surviving High School
?
Or I think Gerbera's is great too. Whichever. Any other suggestions? I'd like to try to at least get it posted sometime today, because don't the mods have to approve it? So the sooner I put it up, the sooner we can get this going. ))

((Sweet Sixteen: Surviving High School sound cool as well Let's see what the others think, I'll stop spamming now ))

((Haha, you're not spamming!! I think we've partially paused the RP'ing on this thread in anticipation of opening the new thread. And this is the best way to get everyone's opinion on what to do so everyone has a say about what others are saying.))

(( I like the surviving high school one but I like gerbera's idea too hmm diffecult... But the surviving high school thing kinda fits more i think, all the drama and bad teachers and that stuff But i really don't know hmmm let's see what the others will say ))

Alright-- I'm going to try to create a thread for it today, and then we'll see if the mods have a problem with it. I'll wait to add you though, because I've edited/altered some of the cliques (like the gangsters are now Troublemakers/Badasses, and I added Surfers/Skateboarders, and Goths) so I'll let you all choose whether or not you want to stay in your current clique or change. :]

For now, I'm just going to call it 'Sweet Sixteen: Surviving High School'; if I find, however, that everyone hates that name, I'll rename it. :]

I'll be there (goes to copy and past app for later on)

I like the name, I think it was a good idea!

Here, I'll just post the two apps here so you guys can get a head start on them!! Tell me if I should change/remove/add anything.

Goodie! *grins and goes to re type application and hopes I'm allowed to use a certain word that rhymes with witch :P* (What, we all know Georgina is one) LOL

Hahah, you are allowed Slytherin girl!! I am just about to post it, so get your apps ready!! :]

edit:
Just posted it! Start sending your modified apps over that way. Or, since you guys already were in this one, you don't have to modify your old apps if you don't want to. And by all means, you don't have to keep the same character-- you can always make a new one instead. :]

So, once our applications have been posted, do we just continue RPing, like we would in this thread, or do we recap, or... ?

That is a really good question. xD
Well, since we were kind of at a break in the RP, maybe we should just say that day ended. That way, we can let some people get their apps in, and then have everyone start on a fresh day.

I was debating whether or not to act as if we were still in the first week of school. I mean, there really aren't things like Field trips and dances in the first week. So if we bumped it like, a month or so into the school year? Like, October? There could be Halloween stuff going on. Or something. I dunno. What do you think?

Yeah, I think moving it to September/October would be a good thing.
And shucks, J.D. was THIS close to go find Lila. I might edit my last post then, because the only reason I had him go to the counselor was to have him cool down somehow, and not leave school, but if we're moving on to a new day, I'll just remove it and change it into him taking off. Cuz frankly, the counselor thing didn't really sit well with me, as it was a bit too far fetched for him to go there, but I was at a loss for ways to calm him down. *LOL*

So, the counselor thing never happened.

Hahah, alrighty.

So then We'll start off in October I think,
(We could have a dress-up day, Halloween Ball, parties)
so we'll have a lot to do.

And the counselor thing never happened, so I guess J.D. and Lila both just went home angstily, haha. But there's always the new day coming up! Maybe they'll both have calmed down by then? *fingers crossed*

Georgina's baaaaack I woulda posted her sooner but I was away all night :P

Yaaaayyy!! Georgina! She's such a character, glad to have her!

And what do you think we should do on the first day of RPing?
Since we're starting in October (as if we've all been in school for about two months) I figured we could start having Halloween stuff going on.

My only question is how do you think we should handle classes? After a while, they get really boring and repetitive. Maybe if we could just come up with tasks for the classes, and maybe only RP one or two classes a day and just mention other classes in passing it would be more fun?

I mean, for example, here's a schedule:

Class 1 (Will rotate, i.e. English/Math/Science)
Physical Education
Lunch
Class 2
Free Period/Homeroom
Class 3
After School Activities

We could just RP Class 1 & PE, then lunch, then skip to free period and once we're in free period just mention class 2, (say it was english) like, "Man, english was boring."

I'm just worried that the classes will be waaay too boring. >_>

Sounds good to me.

Thank god. I don't want to do a bad job and kill the RP because I can't think of how to make school fun. xD
(I love how this thread has become the place to discuss the other one *lol*)

I think once we have 3 kids per clique I'll start the RP'ing.

:]
