I Made Friends!!

Ok, so this week is orientation week - did I spell that right? - and guess what? I MADE FRIENDS!!! The freshman and sophomores were doing the Tera Nova testing for the first two hours, while the juniors and seniors were doing workshops.

My first workshop, I was supposed to sit at a table with five other girls and tell my history, like what's my goal, and what happened in my life to make that my goal. We only had time to listen to the first two girls at my table's stories, but I already feel really bad! Those two girls were telling stories about abusive fathers and extreme bullying and trying to commit suicide! And then my story is, I was raised in an upper middle class family with loving parents and a happy childhood! I don't know, just made me feel bad that I always ed and complained about how horrible my life was and how my parents are so strict, and these girls were getting beat up by their fathers or other kids!

And then, my second workshop, we talked about personal networking. That was boring. Then we had a quick snack/lunch break, and I saw the awesome lunch lady who I'm friends with and I feel bad that I don't know her name! Then I was sitting at my table with my new friends, and we were talking about our stories that we were sharing. The teacher who was running our first workshop actually asked us to share with the entire junior class. We said no. There's a difference between a group of six girls and a group of almost one hundred.

Then I went to use the bathroom, and I walked in on a group of girls having a selfie session and blasting 'Fancy' by Iggy Azeala.

I don't have my schedule yet, but I'm hoping I have the same classes as some of my friends, cuz it's hard for me to make new ones.

The five girls I sat with/made friends with, were, Marita, Faith, Dejenara, Ozjenique, and a girl they call Lay Lay. I probably botched the spelling lol
