I was so excited to go to college and as I was moving into my dorm room I felt a rush of freedom. Yes! I would no longer be stuck under my domineering mother’s bony thumb. My room was on the third floor and had a big window. But after I got all moved in I was saddened to see that the view from my window was blocked by a bulky fire escape. The first day I lived in the dorm was fun, I met a lot of cool people and walked around campus.
But the next morning it was overcast, and with the blocked window it seemed like I didn’t get any additional light into my room. I worried that I wouldn’t have enough light to read or study. I even began to imagine I would flunk out of school! I made a frantic call to my mom and the next day she showed up at my dorm with two beautiful tiffany floor lamps! I think everything will be okay from now on.
