Ice Cream

For the weeks leading up to move in, I didn't really know what to expect of my new college home.  I wasn't particularly scared or nervous, and I was excited to be out on my own (not to mention bored because most of my friends went away to college almost a month before).  When the 18th finally rolled around, I was anxious to move in, but still unsure as far as what to expect.

When I got to Drexel, I was immediately impressed with how well organized move-in was.  I put everything away and said goodbye to my family.  Then I set about trying to figure out what there was to do here.  I wandered around campus aimlessly for a few hours, trying to find my way around until I finally resigned myself to go play Guitar Hero in my room.  Later that night, I went to the floor meeting, and found out that we would be having an ice cream social.

Having nothing better to do, and being unable to turn down food, I decided to go.  The ice cream was good, and I saw many new faces.  I met people who have similar interests, and made new friends.  While I've never really been a fan of things like ice cream socials (except for the ice cream part), I'm glad I went to this one.  It really helped make the beginning of my college life a positive experience.
