Hey there, I'm Irina. I just moved into this dorm for my freshman year of college and am getting to know the area a bit better. What about you?

Oh, hi! My name is Emily. I'm also a freshman here at the university. This is my first time living away from home so it's been an adjustment, but I'm really enjoying myself so far. How are you finding things?

I think it's going well for me so far! It's definitely different than high school, but I'm loving the freedom and independence that comes with living on my own. What about you - how do you like being away from home?

It has its ups and downs, to be honest. I miss my family a lot, but I also really enjoy having all this newfound freedom. It's definitely been an interesting experience so far!

I can relate to that for sure. In some ways it feels like I'm experiencing everything for the first time all over again - like discovering new things about myself and the world around me. What are you studying here at school?

I'm majoring in English literature with a minor in creative writing. It's always been my passion, so I'm really excited to dive into it more deeply now that I'm in college! How about yourself - what are your plans for the future?

Well, I'm still figuring out exactly what I want to do with my life just yet. I'm thinking about majoring in political science or maybe even international relations though. I find global politics really fascinating and would love to work in that field one day. What about you - do you have any ideas about your future career goals?

Hmm, that sounds interesting! I can definitely see why you'd be drawn to that kind of stuff. As for me, I'm not entirely sure yet. But I know I want to work in a field where I can help people and make a difference in the world somehow. Maybe something related to mental health or social work? We'll see!
