Stranger

On Saturday evening I was a small party with some of my friends. Hard to believe I did not know a few of the people there. Knowing I had to talk to a stranger for one of my assignments, I made moves. I approached the keg to fill up my beer and I started a conversation with someone (I will keep them nameless) about greek life. We talked for a while about the difference between fraternities on campus and how we feel about them. We both had very good points about each one. We then continued talking and decided to play some drinking games together. I eventually told him i had to talk to a stranger for my class and they laughed. I left the party with one more friend.
This experience made me open my eyes and realize that I can talk to a bunch of people and get to know them, rather than just stay with my friends. Instead of texting on my cell phone, I can make conversations and get to know people.
