at my school, all the sisters take lunch in their houses every weekday. we have a team of cooks who prepare everything for us. there are several menu options, and a salad and sandwich bar, so you have a choice of what you want to eat. i think most people eat between 12-1, but if you had a conflict with that time, you would simply ask the house mom to set aside a plate for you, and you'd go to the house & eat whenever was more convenient. and, while everyone is required to pay for 5 lunches/week, i guess if you really couldn't make it to the house that day, there would not be a penalty or anything if you just ate elsewhere. it's not as if they take attendance at lunch, but you ARE required to buy the meal whether or not you come.

don't worry about getting phone time! each bedroom will have its own phone line, so you will be sharing with, at most, 2 other girls! it's like living in the dorms. each girl pays her own phone bill for the long distance calls she makes.
