UNIT 8,Freshman friendship,Almost two years ago,I stood on a dormitory balcony,joined hands with my three most intimate friend and listened to one of them tell a story about four girls with different backgrounds and talents who left home and went to college at a mythical place called Happy Valley.,After we left our friends apartment that last night of our freshman year,we ended up on the lawn,playing frisbee at 3 a.m.and sitting on the dormitory steps talking for hours.,Alisa,Karen,Gabrielle and I had spent that day together just being freshman going to the sandwich shop for the last lunch of the semester,trying on each others clothes,watching movies and acting like we would never see each other again.,Three Months is a Long Time For freshmen,and especially for us,saying goodbye at the end of the first year can feel like saying goodbye forever.,Three months can seem like a long time when you are leaving friends and acquaintances whom you have only known for a year.Your freshman year moments are irreplaceable.,My advice to any freshmen reading this is to cherish those moments.You may grow completely apart from the people you spent your first year with,or you may find yourself fortunately comparing them to sibling at the end of your junior year as I did.,Even if you have almost forgotten your freshman year roommates two years later,and barely recognize them when you encounter them in front of the gymnasium,you can never replace that year and the brandnew feeling that your first year of college bring.,A lot will change after your freshmen year.You will meet new people and do new things.You will do a lot more growing up.,At the beginning of our senior year,Karen took her hometown boyfriend Kevin on a tour of campus and downtown.”Thats where grew up,”she told him,motioning toward Atherton Hall,where the four of us spent our first two years at Penn State.,We learned more outside the classroom than we learned inside it.That dorm is where we learned and discussed the lessons of our freshman and sophomore years.I think the principal lesson I learned was the definition of true friendship.And I have never had nor will ever have better teachers than Alisa,Karen and Gabrielle.,That lesson can best be summarized by something Alisa and Karen told me when I was upset at the end of last semester and needed a shoulder to cry on.They said no matter how far we drift apart or who else we become friends with after college,we will always incline to recall each other first whenever we think of college.I couldnt agree more.,The story Alisa told on that balcony is far from over,I something wonder if the following is how it will end:“and those four little girls grew up and realized their dreams.They found themselves all over the country,from farms,to cities,to the suburbs,doing everything they wanted to doa computer technician,a physician,an attorney,and an architectwith the companions they wanted in husbands,children and pets.,And occasionally they would make it back to reunions at that mythical valley and set their old friend,laughing about the good times.They had succeeded in forgetting any of the bad times.And they lived happily ever after.”,join hand,汉意:联手1.Let usjoinhandsand advance together.让我们携起手来,共同前进.来自现代汉英综合大词典2.PLA men and fishermenjoinhandsto guard the coast.解放军和渔民携手守海防.来自辞典例句3.Myth and reality didjoinhandsin at least one
