Talking to my future cluster-mate today, I began to realize how lucky I am to have gotten to live with everybody from my cluster last year. A little light went off in my mind revealing to me how great of an opportunity it was to live with such a diverse group of girls. Everybody was in many ways very different but we learned to get over those differences and really focus on the similarities between us, allowing us to have a great time together.
We all spent a decent amount of time together in the cluster, and at times a little too much. In the case of Angie and Shine, I suspect that you came home late and woke up late for a reason- so that you wouldn't have to deal with us. I'm just kidding, but I'm sure you got enough of us (or shall I say me) during the wee hours of 2 and 3AM.
I would think that if we all met on the street randomly, we would all go our seperate ways without even thinking about the possibility of getting along beautifully someday. Fortunately that was not the case. I have learned to appreciate everybody's talents and quirks and I think I have also learned to have more respect for other people's space when they are tired and cranky (Anne). I hope for anyone who reads this that they get the opportunity to live people who have different viewpoints, aspirations, mindsets, and states of mind.
