Head to Orientation?

Of course

You found your way through the halls to the quite noisy cafeteria. Aside from all the freshmen, it didn't seem too special. It didn't even have an area for snacks and late night purchases. It just had a counter to place orders for food. No one was there at the moment though.

“Ok. Good morning everyone. Some of you have been here for a little while so this might cover info you already know. I'm Arthur. I will be your dorm chief for the next couple of years.” Arthur pointed around. “This is the cafeteria. This'll be your best place to get food. Actually scratch that, this is your only place to get food. After all, us upper classmen focused on having dorms and classrooms first. Food can be ordered between 7-10 am for breakfast, 12-2 for lunch, and 5-8 for dinner.”

There was a bunch of grumbling as you looked at your watch and grumbled with them. The time was 10:10.

“As you can see, they stop taking orders right at 10. No exceptions.” A person walked from the kitchen to a set of cubbies with doors on them. Arthur's watch then chimed. “Perfect timing,” Arthur pointed at his watch. “Your watch and badge are your lifelines here. Anything requiring security like your doors or elevator access for your floor.” The door to the cubby clicked open as he waved his watch in front of it. “And of course your food orders.”

Everyone eyed the bag wondering what was in there.

“After you place an order, the system will notify you when the food is ready. So, even if you aren't quite ready for the day. You can just order and pick it up later. The showers and laundry work very much in the same way. You can reserve a spot, and it will notify you when it's you're turn.” He paused placing his food on a table. “Keep in mind if you don't claim your spot within a reasonable time you...”

At this point you sort of zoned out. You didn't really have meals yesterday and this guy was being a dick and flaunting food. You glanced around at the other first years. There was a pretty varied crowd. Big breasts and small breasts, Tall and short, fit and chubby. You noticed everyone start looking around and focused back on him.

“...and so everyone should go to your floor's table.” Announced Arthur. “Get to know your neighbors. Now I'm going to go eat my breakfast. When you're done feel free to leave whenever.”

You headed over to the 5th table. There was already a chick sitting at the table. You both waited for more floormates. Pretty quickly no one was standing. Floor 2 had ten, Floor 3 had five, Floor 4 had twelve, and Floor 5 still had just the two of you. You noticed that the female floormate was one of the particularly fit freshmen from your earlier scan. “So, I guess it's just the two of us for our floor?”

“Yeah. Kind of expected it when I heard the floors were selected by major.” said the freshwoman.

“I guess that would make sense. I'm John,” you replied, reaching out for a handshake.

“I'm Anne.” said Anne as she shook your hand. “And you're not one for speeches are you?”

“You got me. I zoned out once he started bragging about the food.”

“Yeah that was a dick move.” Anne paused for a moment. “Since it seems like this is over. I'm going to head back and get back to unpacking.”

What's next?
