This is a picture of my friends and I, posing at the Gateway, while out on a girls’ night. These people have impacted my first semester at OSU by helping me get used to campus, inviting me out to explore the city, answering my “typical freshman” questions, etc. I have met them all through AAIV, Asian-American Intervarsity, and they have changed my life for the better. Going into college, I was very nervous to be out on my own, with 60,000 other students and not knowing a single one. It definitely has brought me out of my comfort zone and helped me become more independent. However, I was – and am- still anxious about meeting strangers and having to make friends all over again. The girls pictured below have become my sisters and make my college experience ten times more fun.
