ORCHID HILLS ACADEMY sprawling at the end of a winding, cobbled drive, orchid hills academy clearly dominates the school scene with its private education in academics, such as math and the sciences. due to the students living on campus, in dorms, a strict hierarchy based on wealth has been formed, resulting in this school's fair share of drama. students are required to wear uniforms, much to the mirth of their fairview high counterparts.
BLUEWATER COMMUNITY COLLEGE bluewater's pride and joy is in the form of their own community college, where graduates from both orchid hills academy and fairview high school attend. wealthier families tend to send their children abroad, but this college is esteemed for its prowess in athletics and the arts. with its colonial framework and supposedly haunted hallways, the college is undisputably the oldest building in town.
DOWNTOWN despite being a small and a little isolated, bluewater does have a bustling heart to its town. downtown is an area that acts as a go-between from school, home and the beach. with its clubs and cafes, the mall and hospital, this is the area of town that gets both the majority of tourists and also the majority of civillians on a day to day basis. there is something for everyone here, although the 'everyone knows everyone else' atmosphere can get a little smothering...
SUBURBIA due to its vast socio-economic scope, suburban bluewater does vary quite a lot. the general rule is that the closer the houses and apartment blocks are to the beach, the wealthier the family. however, all of the houses are generally kept in good condition, with most sporting that generic white-picket, all-american wholesomeness. splitting the concrete jungle in half is the green wedge of bluewater's own park, equipped with a playground for the kids and a copse of forest for all you delinquents out there.
PORT BLUEWATER the port is bluewater's strongest selling point, what with attracting tourists in their dozens during both the off season and summer. yachts dot the horizon that is marred by the crested peaks of waves, and a dense forest surrounds the strip of sound, dotted with tumbled cliffs and other natural landmarks. the locals of bluewater know where the best spots are to get a tan and host a bonfire, and several seaside shops hae sprung up to compensate for a long day spent in the sun.
VACATION sure, bluewater can feel enclosed and isolated on the best of days, but it isn't your entire world. don't forget the long strip of highway that leads out of this town, nor the domestic airport and links to the bigger terminals in san francisco and other outlying cities. whether you're interested in a road trip or really need to get away from the town that you know way too well, remember that bluewater is always happy to take you back. home is where the heart is, afterall.
SALUTATIONS introduce yourself or post an away message in here. if you're going to be away for more than two days it's best you let us know here so you don't get accidentally swept away in old accounts - accounts do get deleted after two weeks of inactivity, so make sure you do post an away thread!
AMUSEMENTS we all love forum games, don't we? pass the time between posts with your favorite in and out of character games. just don't get too carried away and forget about posting!
AESTHETICS from signatures to instant messenger pictures, plot pages to thread tables; if you need them or want to make them this is where you can go. you can either put up a universal request or open your own shop to show off your skills!
