My new roommates



Last week I moved in my new apartment which has 3 bedrooms, so now I have 2 new roommates. They are completely different kind of persons. One is a young girl who is from Beijing, China and she can speak very standard mandarin. I like her optimistic personality so much because she is happy every day. It let me remember a sentence in the poem, which is, teenager doesn’t understand the feeling of sorrow. In addition, her behavior is similar to her personality. She decorated her bedroom so colorful, such as yellow pillow, red chair and desk, black wardrobe, pink sofa… The other is a faithful Christian. She goes to church and participants in related lecture every week. She has been in ATL for 5 years. During this period, she experienced so many difficulties. Luckily, she overcame them. Now when she meets problems, she would say it is a test from god.
It is so interesting for me to look for two strangers to be my roommates because 1 year ago I thought it was impossible for me to live with the person who I didn’t know.
Every day, we meet so many people. Someone brushed past us in the street, someone only say hello to us, someone could be our friend, and someone could be so close to us. Is it difficult to look for the “Someone” in millions of people? Not easy, but also not hard.
