true story
I made some friends now. I'm not having a terrible time.
it was weird, because at first all the people I knew were friends of my roommate, because she would introduce me to them. and then I went down to this dance party thing in the hall next to mine with the intention of making some friends, and I met this guy from costa rica and we salsa'd for a while (who woulda thunk?) and we talked for a couple hours and I was like "yay! I have a friend that isn't somehow connected to my roommate!"
little did I know... I go back to my room because my roommate and some other people (and the rest of the campus, apparently) were gonna go to fred meyer for this huge sale they had for OSU students.
then we go back down to the third floor to get some of her friends, and whose room do we walk into? the kid from costa rica, of course. so it was disappointing, because I failed at making my own friends, but it was awesome because I know that it's someone that I chose to be friends with, and wasn't just thrown into it.
also, pretty much everyone I know is latino/latina and/or from another country. I decided to pretend that MN is another country, and then I'll fit in just fine. =P
so yeah. I suppose I should find something useful to do.
I have a job now, in the dining hall. exciting, huh?
