Emo Academy (Freshman year)

Welcome to Emo Academy

Today I leave, today is the day where I meet my heroes, today's the day my life truly begins, today's the day's I leave for Emo Academy.

It was June when I got my letter saying I was accepted into the Emo Academy. I was so happy, I get to meet my heroes my idols. This thought wasn't processed until today when I needed to pack and leave. I shove as many band shirts into my bag as I can. It is a boarding school so I get to bring things to make me as comfortable as possible. I pack a straightener, black eyeliner, bracelets, black jeans, a couple beanies, pretty much every pair of vans and converse I own, and a skateboard. We have a Hot Topic and other stores on campus so anything I don't pack or forget to pack I can get there.

"Skyler, are you ready to go." My mom calls from the living room. It's two o'clock in the morning, I grab my backpack that is covered with pins and take one final look at my room. It feels almost alien the navy blue walls showing for once for I had packed all my posters fanart pictures and my lights so I could bring them.

I leave my room and grab as many of my boxes as possible I only have 10, three of which were clothes, one was filled with books but I was huge and fit all 39 of my books one is filled with art supplies, two is filled with random shit I threw in a box, two are being, and one is filled with food and drinks. We leave the house and pack up the car, the only downside is that the school is in the dead center of the country and I live in upstate New York.

"Are you excited Sky?" my mom asked once we were on the road. It was a long drive and we had to take the quickest way possible I had to be there by 3 in the afternoon. "YES!!!! I get to meet all my favorite bands and not only will I get to meet them I'll see them every day" I said very excitedly.

I put my earbuds in and start reading Harry Potter it's a book that brings me joy and happiness it has a special place in my heart and never gets old. I packed all of my books which included Harry Potter, The Mortal Instruments, a copy of grim brothers tales, every single Cassandra Clare book, and a bunch of other books I've picked up over the years.

...

I check my phone to see the time, 2:30 perfect. Not long after I see the large school that I've waited for so long to open. They just opened and we were the first class. We get out and load up the carts for the boxes. We are instantly greeted by the bands there are a bunch of cars and kids. Every kid gets helped by a band, I'm helped by Waterparks which just so happens to be my favorite band. They say hi and talk to me like an old friend. Geoff and I had an argument about which Pokemon is the best. They help unload the car and then lead me to the freshman table. I get my schedule and dorm room.

I get my schedule and go find my dorm. It wasn't hard the freshman dorms are the ones closet to the entrance. When we get there the door is already open and I hear loud music from inside, Pierce the Veil good taste.

I leave the cart outside the dorm it's the size of an average college dorm each side with a desk, a large bookshelf with 6 shelves and a bed. Sitting on one bed is a red-headed girl with a grey beanie her hair is straight and she's wearing a Slytherin cardigan I'm wearing the same one but Hufflepuff and somehow we are wearing the same Black Parade shirt, I find this weird.

She gets up to greet me "Hey, I'm Cami," she says. "Sky," I tell her we unpack our bags and jam out to King For A Day I sing Vic's part and she does Collins. We leave the room and go outside for the campus tour. We meet outside the freshman dorms and get into our groups "Wouldn't it be great if PTV was our tour guides" Cami says I nod in agreement.
