I'm doing 42 things
This is one of my favorite aspects of dorm life. Just being able to go see and talk to someone face-to-face despite it being maybe 3 or 4 in the morning is one of my best memories last semester. This happened a lot, be it just hanging out, being distracted from having to study, or to even actually studying. Late-night conversations are sometimes the deepest and most fascinating conversations I’ve ever made.

This was part of my interview for a position in a committee for one of the clubs in my university. It was part of a “step out of your comfort zone” exercise. I had to sing (more like scream off-key-ly) Twinkle Twinkle Little Star at one of the busiest location on campus during lunch time. It was definitely embarrassing at first, but it was fun at the same time as I’ve never done anything like that. Ever.
I’ve been playing since I was 11, but stopped last summer when I started college and didn’t have time. I miss it very, very much. At first it might be hard, and it probably wouldn’t sound as great, but it’s so much fun!
