As if moving away from home isn't hard enough as it is, I am no longer going to .
I'll have to meet new people and form new friendships with .
these people who have come to the same place as me, with the same goal as me; .
To start their lives as adults and learn materials that will enrich their mind and lead .
them into a stable life in "the real world." How am I going to meet new people and .
once I've met my "new" friends, what will we do on the weekends? What will I do on .
my free time? Hopefully, the Greek System at University of Southern California will .
help me figure out the answers to all my questions about life beyond the classroom. .
Faced with a new school, new people, and new surroundings, the best way to .
meet people seems to be through the Greek System. Becoming a member of a .
Sorority would increase my chance of meeting people with the same interests as .
me. When entering USC, the student can go to the Greek Open House and choose .
which Sorority they want to be in1. Once I am part of one, I can easily meet people .
through orientation meetings, activities, and of course parties! Being a member is not .
only parties and fun. There is also working as a volunteer in the community by .
participating in charity fundraising so my free time will not only be spent socializing. .
As a college student, I will most likely be spending a lot of time doing work, but there .
is always room to spare. Since dance is a significant part of my life, I will be .
spending hours at the Edge Dance Studio, which is on Cole Avenue and Melrose. .
Luckily, the Edge is only fifteen minutes away by car from the USC campus. I could .
dance from ten in the morning to about three in the afternoon every Saturday and go .
there on weekdays aswell. The rest of my free time could be spent being involved in .
community service. Within Los Angeles, there are many volunteer opportunities to .
help people in need or the environment.
