My name is Molly Cole. I am a 17 year old freshman from Washington, D.C. I am incredibly far from home, and sometimes I get a little homesick. When most of your friends can go home for a weekend, I can’t, it’s just not that easy. I am a pretty shy girl, I hate to write and have my peers read it. Posting papers on this blog for the whole class to read really scares me! I am a pledge sister for the Zeta Tau Alpha Sorority and through the whole rush process I met three people who I know I will be friends with the rest of my time at Alabama. Due to my shyness, deciding to be in a sorority was the best thing to do. This got me to step out of my comfort zone and meet new people, which I wouldn’t have done in any other situation.
With just these first two weeks of school, I learned a lot more about myself then I knew before. I absolutely love to sleep! At home, I hated it because I always thought if I was sleeping I would miss out on something, but here sleeping is one of my favorite things to do, because I am always so tired.
I am also one of the most unorganized and messiest people you will ever meet. The funny thing is, is that being unorganized is a pet peeve of mine, and when I sit there and look how bad my dorm is, it just gets me so angry, so at least three times a week I find myself cleaning up a room that looks like it had just been hit by a hurricane.
Lastly, I am a hypocrite. I am actually a huge hypocrite, and not many people would admit it, but I think it’s funny that I do. I will see someone doing something that I totally disapprove of, but then ten minutes later I am doing it, and I never realize it until my friend points it out to me.

Hey Molly...
this is a really engaging little read. You're a clear writer and I like the undercurrent of humor and satire. Somehow I don't believe your as shy as all that--I bet you tell some good jokes if you get going. I look forward to reading more of your writing.
