I didn't have a car freshman year, so I was limited in where I could go.  Don't get me wrong, I never went without.  There were plenty of people going to Target or Wal-mart and we always car-pooled when we were doing something off campus.  But I never got to explore Athens and all it had to offer. 

Pot-luck, this is what they call it when you let the University choose your roommate for you.

I graduated with a class of about 300. Everyone knew everyone and 7 of us were headed to UGA. I wanted to have an adventure and be able to met new people. So, I went pot-luck. I heard horror stories about roommates who didn’t bathe, listened to punk rock all night, or stole from you. I also heard stories about roommates who became best friends and were inseparable. I knew I would get the latter.
