Obvious Fact Of The Day: When trying to make friends...you normally have to TALK to people. Yeah, crazy concept.
Today was the first day of our Freshman Welcome Week. Kinda silly to call it that though because, you see, a week is longer than 4 days on any given calendar. But hey, it's higher education. They make their own rules here. Apparently, the week is filled with required classes/assemblies that all freshmen have to go to in order to get a passing grade for a UNIV course...which popular belief states is the most pointless class at good ol' SUU. So, like the good small children we are, Des and I met Kylee (my best friend from about halfway through the 7th grade) and Scott (a cool kid in Kylee's apartment complex) in the Centrum and got all comfy in the stadium seating. We listened to the speaker person and had a marvelous time learning to love each other and not be scared to be friends. There was an abundance of special moments going about. It was fantastical. Anyway...directly after said special moments, there was a sort of Tie-Dye party out on the Multipurpose Quad (hereafter the MultiQuad). Des, Kylee, and Myself all decided that we were going to make many new friends at this Gala Event. Yes, yes we were. Course problem number one was the fact that we were all too a-scared to go initiate a conversation. So what do we do? You guessed it. We wandered around aimlessly trying to make some intense eye contact with generally cute strangers. Yep. That was mostly the extent to our socialization. But it's ok...we justified these actions (or lack thereof) with the thinking that we would most definetly meet more people in classes. Oh for sure. Let's just see how that one goes...
