welcomed with a smile

As a first year and a bisexual, I was worried about being othered and not queer enough during the week or too big and loud. While I did have moments of not knowing anyone and worrying about being included or too much, NOT ONE PERSON made me feel separate and othered. I was welcomed with a smile and encouragement every single time.
