When you walk into a high school cafeteria, what do you see? As a new student or incoming freshmen, you see many unfamiliar faces. Once you enter a room of people you are unfamiliar with, you tend to feel uncomfortable or unwelcomed. Personally, I experienced those emotions myself, after moving from town to town. Whenever a see a new student, I know exactly how they feel. Their either nervous, upset, shy, or excited to start a new chapter in their life. My best friend Marie was a new student to Weber the same year I was. We found comfort in know that both of us didn’t know anyone. As we spent our off periods together, Marie informed me about Germany, her home town, and I talked to her about American tabloids, cool areas to visit, different

    I am a godparent of an 8-year-old little girl. Before I moved to Houston our bond was tight and still is even though we are miles away. Every day we talk or Skype on the phone.

As much as I can, I step in and provide when her mother needs help. As she gets older I am sure our connection will continue to grow.…

    Before I moved to NC , I lived out west. The demographic and food delicacies are far different than here in the south. My taste aversion was fully loaded hot dog with chili and slaw. I never heard of that type of combination on a hot dog. I was raised eating a hot dog with just ketchup, mustard, relish and sometimes onions. I have lived in NC for about 23 years. I finally tried eating a hot dog Carolina style and love it. Since I have gluten allergy, I skip the bun and still eat it that way.…

    The first place I would pick to move to is the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Everyone forgets about this part of Michigan, half of the time it isn’t on the weather maps on the news. I think it would still be hard because I would have to pick up my life and transfer it to another world. At this point I understand that I would have to give up the luxuries I love so much. I would keep my phone but I cannot take my entire bedroom, my car, or my school with me. I know a lot of my family would stay put. They would suffer through it because they wouldn’t believe it until it was actually happening. My mother’s side of the family is very old fashioned and will not leave their ground because they have already been here so long and have worked so hard.…

    This happened when I first moved to Kansas. It was the middle of summer and there were no kids around close to my age so I was alone. First i named some roses that were in my front lawn and drew pictures with them of crappy looking rabbits because that was all I knew how to draw. my mom came home one day and I ran up to her and showed her the pictures, saying "And this one rosy drew, and this one Rosetta drew and this one I drew." when I was done my mom said clearly not understanding that they were not real "what house do your friends live in?" Like the dumb kid i was i responded "oh they don't have a house they live in our front yard." Extremely confused and probably creeped out my moms said "can i meet these friends?" It was then I told…

    Through my short 7 weeks here at St. Olaf I have had many different experiences. First, when I arrived for football camp on August 12th. Initially I felt uncomfortable, out of place in somewhere new where I really didn’t know anyone. On the other hand it was intriguing, such a beautiful place on a hill, where you feel on top of the world. Then, it was time to say bye to my parents for the first time in 18 years. That made everything more uncomfortable and made me feel more confused, which I am sure every freshman felt. Starting to meet the rest of the freshman and make friends was easier then I thought, because all of us were new here, and looking for people to talk to. Throughout a long-lasting two and a half weeks of camp friendships started…
