Roommates

Coming to college I didn't want to be with one specific friend from home. Though we may have been close, I've heard living with friends kinda drives you nuts!! So instead I decided to room randomly and it has turned out GREAT. My roommate is from Hawaii and comes from completely different circumstances and life experiences, but somehow we fit, and we fit really well. She has already become my best friend. We laugh and joke, sometimes giggling together till two or three in the morning. I would have never expected to grow so close to someone so quickly, but like my mom, this freshman roomie will be my friend for a very long time. So I guess you could say I once again learned something new. It doesn't matter where you're from or who your past friends were, there are always new opportunities to find life long friends.
