Let’s admit it. Too many of us let our grades define us. Yes, you know who you are. Believe me, I’m with you.

It’s your first semester of college and, plainly stated, you are clueless. Everything is changing. Suddenly, you are saying goodbye to friends, then your parents. You find your new closet empty of clothes, and the wall bare of posters. You are at college. Still, you’re clueless. Why are you here? Ah, yes. College education. But where is the classroom? What supplies are needed?

When drudgery and monotony settle on the campus, the best remedy is to simply leave it. When your mental strength is waning or your willpower is ticking slower and slower, stop, take a breath, and just get away, even if it’s for just 20 minutes.

In my two years of dorm living, I’ve noticed a common thread. Hardcore gamers are some of the most isolated people on campus.

In the next year, you’ll develop a myriad of relationships. One of the most important relationships you will create is with your future roommate. Living with your roommate does not mean that he or she will be your best friend. A few people, like myself, find their roommate becomes their best friend.
