Name: Sophia
Age: 23
Occupation (ooh scary): Majoring Buisness, Minoring in Lit... at erm Northwestern!
Appearence: Short brown hair in a bob. Deep blue eyes, a proud slightly off center nose. Pale skin, more than lightly freckled. Jeans and a light seventies style shirt.
It took a while for me to find the hotel, or moreover it took that cab driver a while to find it. The hotel was pretty, although a little small. I lugged my dozen or so bags behind me, various clothes and papers falling out of them as I tredge in. I begin to look around wondering where everyone is.

I noticed someone pacing around aimlessly, as if she was looking for someone. I walk up to her.
"Hi! Would you happen to be from the NTWF?" I asked. "It's Cheshire, if that sounds familiar..."

I looked at the direcions that had been e-mailed to myself and sighed, rubbing my head. Never having left the East Coast before, I was in a ball of confusion suddenly being on the opposite side of the United States and trying to find a group of people I hadn't talked with in many years, much less seen.
It was crowded, and the warm sun was exhilerating. I paced myself as I weaved through the crowds of people, carrying my suitcase.

Name: Carrie
Age: 22 (I'm 12 in a month-- cut me some slack!)
Occupation: University Student, Majoring in Law-- part-time job as somebody who works at Starbucks^^
Appearance: Dark brown hair, brown eyes, glasses-- wearing blue jeans and a plain black shirt
Personality: Who knows?
XD
EDIT - Disneyland is in Anaheim, Chessy^^; Not LA.
--
I got lost after turning onto the freeway. I knew it was in Anaheim, but I went north instead of south. Note to self - when you see signs advertising San Fransisco, you are NOT going the right way!
I arrived at the hotel four hours after I planned, and after parking my banged up '04 Chevy in the parking lot, I pulled my bag out of the trunk and sauntered into the lobby.

I suddenly notice a brown haired girl who looked no different than she had when she came to visit me a few years previously in the winter and saw all the snow.
"Carrie!" I shouted, dropping my suitcase and running towards her.

"Marissa?" I ask, my eyes wide. Clumsily, I drop my bag and give her a daft grin, unsure of what to say. Memories of the snow flood my mind. Oh, the precious snow! How I wish they had it in Los Angeles!

I reached out and hugged Carrie. "I missed you," I said, reaching down to grab my forgotten suitcase. I laughed a little and said, "Remember when you came up to New Jersey a few winters back, when we had that huge snowstorm? I suppose there isn't any snow here..." I said, loving the warm feeling of the sunlight.
"Do you know where we're supposed to be?" I asked, hoping Carrie had an idea of where we were supposed to be going.

"Not a clue!" I exclaim happily. "But I think tomorrow we're gonna go to Disneyland!"
I never have liked Disneyland, to be honest, but it'll be fun to be there with a big group of slightly wacky people. Maybe Mickey will sign my head!

Name: NSQ  Age: 23 Occupation: University student majoring in... ummm... litterature^^ Works part-time at a movie theatre Appearance: shoulder-length, messy almost-black hair. A red t-shirt with a black jacket tied around my waist, and baggy dark green pants. Asian, medium-height. Personality: ... stuff...  * I stepped out of the cab, nearly bumping my head on the roof in my excitement to get to the hotel. I was finally going to meet the people from the NTWF! "I hope I recognize them," I said to myself aloud, as I half-dragged, half-carried my luggage to the door. I walked into the hotel lobby and scanned the room. How was I supposed to know the NTWFers when I saw them? |

I smile widely. "Disneyland!" I cried happily. "I've never been there..." I grabbed the e-mail with the directions.
"Says we'll be meeting up in the lobby of some spiffy hotel..." I said nonchalant as I paced onward up the steep sidewalks.

Suddenly, I saw somebody resembling NSQ walk into the lobby. "Marissa!" I said excitedly, "I think it's NSQ! I even brought the plastic pokey-stick she once gave me!" I quickly fished the plastic pokey-stick out of my oversized, coffee-stained purse.

"Oh...I think that is NSQ!" I cried, grabbing Carrie's hand and dashing for the lobby, shouting, "Oy, Plastic Pokey Stick Giver...-er!"
I wondered if I had thrown my plastic pokey stick into my suitcase.

"NSQ!" I joined in, screaming. I held out my plastic-pokey stick to her. "REMEMBER THIS, NSQ!?"

((Isn't Anaheim considered part of LA, though?))
((Oh, and just to let you all know, we're at the Disneyland Hotel, which is backs onto Disneyland... So it's not like you have to drive anywhere))
I look over and see a group of girls, most likely in there 20s'. "Great..." I say to myself, sarcastically. "This will be interesting. Please let some guys come..."
I walk over and greet everyone, worried they might not know who I am.
