The many students at NYSA, the New York School of Arts, have all experienced this sudden rush. They know that they have a pure talent for something, and they will not stop at anything to get to the top with what they do best. Everyone’s past is different, everyone’s personality is not like the next. They come from all over the world, speak various languages. And yet they are all tied together by the one thing that joins them.
Their talent.

There's really only one person that I have to thank, and that's my best friend Holden. He made the amazing skin, he's great at coding, and he makes sure that I keep it on track. He takes care of me outside of NYSA, he's amazing really in every way.
The plot and other things are by the main admin, me, Bellz.
And who I really want to thank as well are that amazing NYSA members, everyone that's been here since the beginning and the ones that just joined. I love you all, and thank you for keeping NYSA alive.
All applications must be posted here, please post it in the pending applications sub-board. The admin will move it once it's accepted. The application form can also be found here.
This is your second stop on the way of creating your character. Claim your pb and other things once your accepted, or reserve your pb to make sure no one steals it away from you.
When threads have died, or when they have been finished, they will be moved here. If you have a finished thread just pm one of the admins to move it, or wait for the end of the month and it will be moved anyway.
Sometimes the forum is missing that one board that you want. Well here you can request that board. We won't add every board, because they need to actually be used by more than just one character.
Throughout the months that we've been playing at NYSA we've had several COTM etc. All of them will be posted here so that you can look back on the time your character was picked.
We create out characters, but they need some drama in their lives. No one's life is perfect, come here to request a certain character or just to request a plot. What's life without drama..?
If you want a thread that isn't really meant for young eyes. Pm one of the admins and they will give you the password to this board. That way the young ones are protected.
Sometimes it difficult to keep up with all the thread flying around on the board. Just post a thread here and keep an eye on the threads that you are in. Make sure that you don't miss one.
Not everyone wants their thoughts to be public, let them have their privacy and stay out of their diaries. Of course, it hard to resist such a temptation.
There are so many things going on in our characters lifes, so many people come into their lifes and leave again. This is the perfect way to keep track of all that.
Its one of the many gifts from the modern time. The cellphones, everyone is addicted to these little things and they're the perfect way to keep in touch with your friends, even during class.
Chatting is a part of life these days, is there anytone that hasn't heard of it? Some say it's taking over for real conversation. But that doesn't make it any less fun
Dirt, one or several of the students at NYSA decided to start this fancy little gossip newspaper. Their sources are everywhere but no one knows who's writing it. And maybe that's for the best, because they've got the dirt on everyone
Every student needs a place from them to practise their own arts. Dancers needs their dance studio and the writers need a quiet place to write. For every art, there's a room, for ever student to use whenever they want.
Just because they go to a school for the arts doesn't mean that they don't have to follow regular classes as well. Though, the student tend to skip them to 'practise'
The most crowded place before, between and after classes. The many blurs of faces streaming by to get to their next class. Some students not caring whether they make it or not, friends meeting once again, lovers finding each other for a quick peck. Classic High School Hallways.
Everyone has a accident once in a while, or they're trying to get out of their classes. Either way, everyone has been to the Nurse’s Office at least once in school career.
During lunch this place is the most crowded place in all the school. Where some like to go out into the backyard and eat some just like to stay inside and eat their meal in peace. Buying some food in case they forgot their lunchboxes.
Even the teachers need a place where they can come to their senses. The students can be difficult to deal with and thankfully they have a little room all to theirselves.
The school has a very big backyard, where mostly during the summer students can have lunch or walk around. There's a big three where the students lounge under and a big field where guys sometimes play football.
Well of course every school has a roof, but actually students aren't really allowed up there. Not that anyone every listened to the rules and the students at NYSA are no different.
For the few lucky students that can actually afford a car they need a place to park it. For the others it's just a place to hang before, during or after class
Winter Showcase, every single NYSA, high school, student must play a part in this. This determinds half their grade for this semester. Better break a leg, guys.
The college students have their own Winter Showcase. Some help out the students at the high school but still they have to do something of their own in order to graduate at the end of the schoolyear.
In front of the school, in the center, there's a large fountain. Mostly this is where students hang out during the summer. Cooling themselves off with the water. It is also believed that it fullfilles wishes.
Once you're at the college it's time to step things up a bit. Everything is more serious and that includes the arts. Where you were once fooling, now it's time to focus.
Its well known that the best place for studying is the the library. The school houses an enormeous library, filled with books it has collected over the years. Computers for the ones that don't have one themselves. And the classic librarian doesn't like noise.
The college has a small courtyard of it's own, it's like the backyard of the high school only a bit neater because the college students realise that they can't leave their mess behind after every lunchbreak.
As almost every school, the New York School of Arts has white stone front steps, leading into the school. Students come out to have a smoke, eat their lunch, or just avoid going to class.
The streets of New York, they're dangerous, infamous, and filled with the unexpected. Better stay out of the dark alleys if you'd like to keep your purse.
The Lower East side, the opposite of the Upper East side obviously. There are a lot of clubs here, great music, drunk people and loads of fun. All at the Lower East Side.
The place for the rich and shameless. Some lucky students live here, most of them still live with their parents. Other come here to gawk at the big houses and dream of a better life.
The beach is the perfect place to be during the summer. But even when there's no sunshine it's still a lovely place to take a walk or sit in the sane watching the waves.
Got a date, or maybe just bored for a chance. Even feel like watching the new movies put out? Well, heres the place to do it. We've got our concession stands with soda pop, popcorn, candy, etc. We got everything you can possibly need. In the lobby of the theater, there is an arcade room. You can have fun in there too. This place is 2 stories high.
An large apartment building filled with NYSA students. The neightbours sometimes complain but the students need a place to stay and Back Street is walking distance from NYSA.
The Brooklyn Bridge, one of the oldest suspension bridges in the United States, stretches 5,989 feet over the East River connecting the New York City boroughs of Manhattan and Brooklyn.
Bedford Street apartements, they vary from 4 bedroom apartments to one bedroom closet sized apartments. A lot of the NYSA students live here when they start High School or College.
Even though some of us hate to shop we all end up here every once in a while. Some are addicted to shopping, spending too much money. And some try to avoid the temptation.
Let's hope you don't up here, but in case you do you have nothing to worry about. The doctors know what they're doing and you'll be in great care. Still... try not to end up here.
With all the sins going around in New York, and all the funny stuff going on with the students at High School and College, they sometimes need a place to confess. Pray your sins will be forgiven.
The most famous park of New York City. There's hardly anyone that hasn't heard about and it's the perfect place to hang out with friends or by yourself.
Sometimes even the Big Apple is too small, and you want to get out and see the world. Wherever you want go, this board will take you there. Take a break from school and go travel. Who knows what you'll find.
