07/05/2015, 03:04 PM #459 Orientation | Trinity Soul University
As Lydia smiled and made a bit of a... joke? About what happened to her, the Headmaster seemed to get visibly angry.
"Goddammit Lydia... Just... this is a horrible start today. Students are already probably thinking that the staff are incompetent, and they are beginning to get irritated by how long it's taking for Orientation to begin. Just... DAMMIT!" The Headmaster replied as he turned around while angrily stomping his foot onto the ground before taking a deep breath. "Okay... Things can still be fixed. They still can... Just hurry up onto the stage. We're starting Orientation right now." The Headmaster spoke while grabbing Lydia by the arm, he then began to practically drag her to the stage up front.
The Headmaster replied as he walked back up to the stage where the other staff members are. Then at that moment he tapped his finger on the microphone before speaking into it.
"Hello everyone... and welcome to Trinity Soul University! Where we teach young men and women how to use magic, better control their abilities, and to help those become official mages! We do everything we can to help you students feel as comfortable as possible during your stay here, yet we aren't about to hold back against you all." He said with a minor happy chuckle.
"Every student's well being is of our utmost most importantce. We won't push you too hard if something ends up happening to you that will prevent you from getting your work done. For example if you come down sick, or require some medical attention, we have Nurse Hannah with medical staff in the infirmary to make sure you get the proper treatment and medication. If you also end up with some other kinds of problems, such as say a... family member has an accident, we will try to make sure that you have enough time to deal with it." The Headmaster spoke before turning away from the mic to to breathe.
However here at Trinity Soul University we also have plenty of things to keep you students busy on any days off. For there are two "Districts" that are set up. The path on your right leads all the way to the Restaurant District. Which has several different restaurants, and places for you students to just "chill" and "hang" out with your friends as well as grabbing a bite to eat. Heck you can even go there for lunches because let me tell you... the food in the cafeteria isn't top notch. But don't forget though, that those restaurants do cost money. It's just to help with any funds for the University." Said the Headmaster before straightening his collar.
"Now the shopping district that contains a market where one can find all sorts of things to buy. Ranging from furniture, to clothing stores. We even have a small library, complete with bookstore, a gym, and an arcade for you students to just kick back and relax when you have nothing to do. There are also plenty of other places for shopping as well, and much like the Restaurant District. The Shopping District also requires actual money."
"Another bit of information regarding the Districts is that one can get jobs there. Getting a job obviously has plenty of benefits aside from just getting a paycheck. With a job in one of the District's you work you will earn 'credits' of sorts. These 'credits' will help lower the cost of Next year's tuition fee, meaning getting a job in one of the Districts is advised Not only that, but a small portion of the money that the shops make will be sent to the Universities funds. As such having a job in one of the District's can help you continue your studies. These places are also open to all students 24/7." Spoke the Headmaster as he finished talking about the Districts.
"That's for the shops and restaurants in the Disctrict's, but now onto talking about classes." The Headmaster said as he took out a rather large stack of papers from his coat before reading the papers.
"Classes are generally going to be taught by the many different teachers here, and are categorized by Magic types and sub-types. For example, Water Magic and it's sub-types is taught by the Water Magic Teacher, Ms. Mizu. She is the lovely young woman with the long navy blue hair next to me. So if you have Water Magic or any Water-Magic sub-type like Ice, then she will be your teacher." The Headmaster commented as he gestured over to Ms. Mizu, of whom gave a polite bow of her head as she sat in her seat on the stage.
"Now generally classes for all students will start at about... 9 am, and will end at around 3 pm. However that excludes the Dark Magic classes of whom will be taught by Ms. Dark. As her classes start at around 8 pm, and end at around 2 am. The reasons for why her classes take place during the night is quite obvious. For Dark Magic is better taught during the night when things go dark. Class schedules will also vary and differ due to the Weather, and any changes to your class schedules will be sent to you via mail, E-mail, or a phone call from one of the Staff Members. Also as a heads up, after Orientation you will have the rest of today, and tomorrow with no classes. However after that you will be needing to go to start your studies then. So it is recommended to use the rest of today to get settled with your new home during your stay here at the University. While tomorrow we will also be having a sort of event. This event will be taking place tomorrow starting at about 8 AM, and will be ending at 9-10 PM. During this time the classrooms for the teachers will be open to the students, and in the morning you all will receive a note or E-Mail with the details of which class and which teacher you will be having. So during tomorrow it is advised for you all to seek out your assigned classroom and teacher, as they will be giving you the needed info of what to expect in your classes, along with some other important information. So be sure to go to the classes tomorrow so you can meet with your teachers. They will have any questions about your classes and what you will be learning." The Headmaster finished as he looked up away from the papers and at the students.
Looking at the crowd of students he gave a big smile and bow before saying one last thing.
"Now... welcome to Trinity Soul University. The place where you will learn, and master your magic. We hope that you all have a pleasant time studying here. If you have any questions though, feel free to come talk with any of the staff at any time. For we will be willing to listen to your problems. Now have a pleasant day everyone!" Said the Headmaster in a more happy and cheery tone before throwing his hands into the air and yelling one last thing.
"AND NOW ORIENTATION IS OVER! HAVE A GOOD DAY!!!" The Headmaster yelled happily and excitedly as he turned around to face all the staff members up at the stand, of which they all began talking with each other about various things...
Orientation is now over.
