Peace CorpsHello everyone, I'm Jody and welcome to American Cafe!
Hey Yang Chen, isn't your college reunion coming up soon?
You know we have a saying, "The friends you make in college are the friends you have for life." And today we're going to meet Jennifer and Sharrin. They are roommates in my building. But after talking to them I found out just how unique their roommate relationship is.
Well, I know it doesn't sound very unique. But wait until you hear their story.
OK, My name is Jennifer and I live in Washington D.C. in a neighborhood called Mt. Pleasant. And I live with one other woman, Sharrin, in that apartment.
My name is Sharrin and I'm 26 years old.
And I'm 25.
Well, they told me they first met their freshman year of college. They were in some freshman tutorial writing class together that all freshmen had to take.
Exactly. In the States, it's a little different than in China. The real closeness comes from living in the same dormitory or dorm for short. Next, let's hear again from Sharrin.
We first met when we were going to college together. We met our freshman year. And uh we had a freshman tutorial class together that all freshmen had to take to practice writing. And so we met through that class and we also lived in the same dorm. And so we hung a lot through that and we just stayed friends all four years of college.
The unique part comes after college. Without talking about it together, Yang Chen, both women independently decided to join the Peace Corps. |
