Donnie, My Freshman Year Roommate
Updated: Sep 17
I walked into my empty dorm room, nervous, yet excited. My family had driven me to campus, and were helping me unload my stuff. My roommate was clearly not here yet, so I chose the left side of the room and began setting my stuff down. After two trips to the car, we had everything unloaded. Mom and Dad gave hugs, told me to behave myself, and enjoy my freshman year. They were both crying a little, their oldest son moving away to college. My younger sister and brother looked bored and ready to get back home.
