Went to college orientation today... And across 9 hrs I probably had 8 Icebreaker kind of questions. I think I only really stuttered on 2 of them, and i even stuttered in front of 35+ plus people (While in the middle of the human circle they formed) but to my surprise, no one said anything. No laughing, no talking, no “lol are you ok dude”, the only thing one of the advisers said was a really gentle “Take your time” and I usually get pissed off when people say that but this time it actually worked. And afterwards they just went on about it like it was nothing. I still hated I had to do this college shit for 8 hrs but I atleast feel better about going to college now because people are more mature.
