Dear Filly,
How do I make friends during my first week at ABAC?
Sincerely, Freaked-out Freshman
Dear Freshman,
Here’s the good news: every single freshman at ABAC is wondering that same thing! So, remember, when you talk to a new person, at the very least y’all will have that in common! Here’s the (not so) bad news: It will absolutely take a willingness to feel awkward at first, but if you can tough it out, it’ll never be more awkward than that first time you approach someone!
Just be yourself, Freak, and you’ll find the right people who love you for who you are, and if someone doesn’t? Then why would you want to be their friend anyway!?
Sincerely,
Filly
Dear Filly,
I’m worried that my roommate will make fun of me for eating hay. Any advice?
Sincerely, Homo Sapien Henry
Dear Henry,
Have you absolutely lost your mind? You’re a human… I cannot imagine that being healthy, and I will not encourage it (even though hay is crisp and refreshing!). Seriously… our first “Dear Filly” and the weirdos are already out; can I get a break? Folks, please be kind to your roommates. Keep your space clean and be respectful, and do NOT do any of this mess.
I mean honestly, Henry, eating hay? Have you lost it? Please visit the Health Center so they can fix whatever this is. Are you a Filly super fan or something, so bad that you’re eating hay now? Is that what this is? Good gallop what on Earth…
Sincerely, Filly
