I currently am in my second year in the university and I have been block mates with the same people for over a year now. Friendships form within this span of time. You can even say “I know you; You know me,” but practically speaking, how sure are you that you truly know each other?
I could still remember last year, during our freshmen year, when everyone in the class was asked to introduce his or herself.

The truth is, I am not really what they have described me. I am the type who even procrastinate, sleep before doing anything for school, go out with other friends, and not the school-dorm-school-dorm type. To be fair, I told
