The setting of the scene is the road out front of Hancock Hall. The time is 12:45 am, and it is a very cold and windy night with the temperature at around 3 degrees. The street is covered with sleep deprived students that of which reside in Hancock Hall, and at the time, there are still people walking out from Hancock Hall. In the background there is a subtle uproar of chatter regarding the lack of warm clothing due to the unusual timing of a fire alarm. Looking around, I notice that there are a numerous amount of people in shorts, t-shirts, and in one persons predicament, a towel. Some groups of people are trying to figure out who made the alarm go off, the common consensus is that it went off because of either stoners or people on the third floor making popcorn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So there we are, we as in my roommate, his friends from the first floor that of which I have never met or seen, three guys and two rather short girls, huddled in an awkward semi circle of wondering eyes around the street, observing all of the cold college students. I remember looking down and noticing that my phones in my pocket, the perfect opportunity to disregard everything going on, by simply getting sucked up into any given social media app that I could get to. As I’m about to type in my pass code which has become complete muscle memory to me, my phone suddenly stops, as if it had just gotten shot or stabbed, and slowly dies on me. So there I am, tired, grieving the loss of my digital loved one. Amidst the ruckus that is a midnight fire alarm, I hear my name called from across the small semicircle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Jordan, these are my friends”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And bam! There I am socially being taken hostage and forced into introducing myself to my roommates friends. Now I wasn’t exactly dreading this day or anything, I’m actually known for being quite outgoing, however, I was not in what one might consider a “joyful” mood due to the time, temperature, and the fact that I had just reached that point where I was ready to pass out. Well, time to give a mediocre response and hope that they don’t notice how much I could care less about this interaction since I really just want to be in my bed snoozing away. As I’m about to signal my mouth to say something, I realize that my brain must be a little behind due to the time, and I can’t think of what to say to introduce myself. Oh god, wait, why am I putting so much thought into this, it’s just a stupid introduction, just say “Hey”…. Ok why aren’t you saying hey, it’s so simple…. Well do something, before you know it were gonna be at the point of no return a.k.a the awkward silence… alright here goes nothing<\/p>\n\n\n\n
*Puts up hand so that it is adjacent to my own shoulder and throws up a peace sign*<\/p>\n\n\n\n
