Sunday Socializing

In residence center life, your floormates often become your family and best friends. In residence centers like Read, the boys down the hall from you often become your brothers. Last Sunday, the girls of Landes 2 and the boys of Curry 2 had a chance to socialize over free wings from Buffalouies.



The social started off as roommates came in together, then found familiar faces from their respective floors. Before long, people made new friends that they never even knew lived down the hall. Residents found out what they had in common with their new friends, including similar roommate stories, their favorite wings flavor, or the conversation sparked by my RA's music choices for the event.





As the wings ran out, the crowd thinned out as residents began to return to Sunday homework, studying, and laundry. The social was both a nice study break and a foundation for future plans and friendships.
