New roommate

So I've lived in rez for 3 years now.

2 years with the same roommate. Who I complained about because she was controlling, and much older than I was. But she was nice overall.

One semester (4 months!) with a person younger than me who was on exchange from England. Seemed nice enough, but scared of me. I never talked to her, and I think I saw her less than my friends who came over to visit me did.

Now... I got another roommate! She's from Australia.

You learn a great deal about people and yourself by being in contact with so many new people...

I just hope this roomate is around more and we have a better relationship than the previous ones.

Good luck with this roommate Christina. When my daughter went off to college I was very concerned with her having to live with a stranger for the first time. I worried for nothing, her roommate is an absolute dream. The college she attends takes these things quite seriously and I could not have choosen a better roommate.
