Orientation

 Freshman! That is what i have been referred too lately. it seems as though all of the first year college students have been lumped together in one large group. Much like how we were lumped together on the first few days that school started. Hurricane Irene had struck the campus along with my home town, which had been evacuated day before. This was an awesome experience for me because it was like a terrifying ice breaker. For one I learned who most of the people who lived in my building were but at the same time there was a lot of flooding and the power went out many times in a lot of other dorms. When one of the Ra's( Residential Advisers) came by our room to tell my roommates and my self to go down to the first floor, I grabbed everything that i could think of to bring with me and left the room. when we got to the first floor I meet new people and had very interesting conversations with them. A lot of these same people i am still friends with a few weeks later.
Advice:
 Even though a situation may seem bad try and make the best of it because you never know what will come out of it.
