"Rise and shine, sleepyhead."

Letting out a muffled groan, the teenage girl stirred and turned to face the older, better-kempt version of herself in the driver's seat as the latter spoke up again. "We're here. All the best, have fun, and I'll see you when I see you, I guess."

"Thank you..." Angelica muttered, running a hand through her flyaway but strangely-presentable auburn locks before she exited the sleek champagne vehicle.

She had nothing else to say to her sister, who was nearly as reticent as she was. However, it was clear that just like their parents, Antonia was hardly excited for her. Not that it mattered to Angelica, for regardless of how they felt about the whole situation, she was relieved to know that she would be spending some time away from them. She could use the change in environment, and perhaps she would get to be around more open-minded people. Surely many of these students cared about working on what they loved more than simply making tons of money, right? Of course, it would be absolutely fantastic if one could end up doing both, but even if she could not, her priority was set.

Angelica fumbled slightly as she gathered her belongings from the trunk, but eventually managed to sort herself out. She slammed it shut and gave Antonia a thumbs-up, signalling that she was good to go. She watched the car drive off for a couple of seconds before turning her attention to the building which stood just behind the entrance gates. Any drowsiness she had still been experiencing from her little nap on the way to the academy immediately vanished as she marveled at its lovely architecture. Grabbing the professional compact camera that hung from her neck, she proceeded to capture the beauty of the structure with several snaps.

She then lowered her camera with a subtle sigh of satisfaction before noting the presence of an older woman right at the gates. Observing that she had a clipboard, Angelica assumed her to be the staff member in charge of registration, but it seemed that she was waiting for the right time to address everyone who had gathered.
