hey guys welcome to my channel Foster's homes this is my first video and I'm
gonna be talking about my first week of college why I joined YouTube and where
I see my channel going so let's get right into it
So the first week of college I moved into my new apartment as you can see
I promise this wall won't always be so like else all you can see right now is this painting that I
painted at some welcoming event hey speaking of Welcome Week after I moved
in welcome week started which is like this full week of events for college
students to go to you can do things like paint there's informational sessions
library tours so many things that you can do and get involved in and things
like that we live in to a couple because a lot of them are for freshmen like a
library tour we've been here for a year we know how it is we don't really need
to get a tour of the library but I'm gonna skip to the last event of Welcome
Week which is SOVO fair which is where all these embarrassing things
happen to me so SOVO Fair is on Friday it's it's a
fair where you can join a bunch of new organizations clubs whatever get
involved all that good stuff and so me my roommate was also my friend
um either since my freshman year of high school
hey I know you're watching my roommate slash friend and my other friend I've
known that I met in high school we all went to the servo fair to like because
we're like village and some clubs I'm gonna get involved this year and the
friend that's not a roommate she's a freshman so you know she wanted to get
involved obviously so we get there and it's at this place called the student
Commons which is like I don't even know why the quote unquote like that's
actually what it's called the student Commons and it's kind of like a hangout
place and it's also kind of like a food court and so outside of the Commons is
the compass and that's where all the frats sororities
religious clubs a dance club and some culture clubs are out there and sports
clubs and so we went out there first like walked around with around I joined
a club like a cultural Club with Filipino club and I put my name down for
this Bible study club but I'm I'm a kidding I'm not gonna go to that and
love God but I'm not gonna go to a Bible study club I joined a radio Club because
my minor is public relations and I wouldn't mind working for radio and I
want to work for magazine company so just kind of made sense yeah that was
that for all the clubs are out there we just like walked around there was free
ice cream so we got some of that then once you go inside the Commons is like
an upstairs part so there's a first floor which is like a food court then
upstairs which are like these rooms like big big rooms that they call the
ballrooms and one Ballroom it was like more like
dance type clubs singing clubs and educational clubs because it was it was
like a public relations type thing like I guess if you want to know more about
the major and the minor there was like a cup of that and then in another room it
was like all the sciences and the communities things like that like if you
want to build hospitals for kids that are less fortunate and go to other
countries and do stuff like that it really comes for that too so we go
upstairs and there's this club like when you first walk in and they're an
acapella Club I mean like come to your clubs your club yeah you know people try
to like recruit people and so they're like oh whoa can you guys sing come to a
club and I was like well I don't really like I'm not the best singer I don't
really I don't really think I'm that good it's a game and the guys like oh
well if you have a friend that can sing can you get them you join our club and I
was just like dang like what is your brought like okay like have your
infinite Onix like not you don't need to know how to sing
I'm not saying nobody men don't sing sing cuz I love Anna tonics but I can
own the beat I can do like I could do that in a club like I
don't need to be Beyonce but whatever so I was like okay day and
then like somebody else in my club was like hey do you guys wanna join our club
and I was like hey your member already like turned us away and told us to go
find a friend so no and I'm actually sounds really mean now that I'm saying
it back there like that are you gonna get hurt my field so then after that
like big look for more clubs but we can really find any Oh a setup for this club
that was like another public relations tech club I started for that and then we
like left we went to third room and it was like all like it was like KSA like
this Korean Club a Chinese Club Vietnamese Club a Japanese club and I
think like a Bengali club and at the opium club another African club like it
was a bunch of different clubs so we walk in and we passed this table that's
like full of like Koreans and it's for it's like a Korean Club and I'm
interested in Korean culture in the language so I've been thinking about
joining that Club for a long time but I've been on the fence about it because
I hear you only can speak Korean and especially last year I wasn't that good
at it I know more words now but I don't really speak Korean fluently like I
can't live here with the holder conversation like I can speak to you in
konglish but not in the full Korean I could probably like say a sentence or two and that's
it and so I was kind of nervous about joining that club because I didn't want
to be the only one not speaking Korean and just kind of being like left
out but here the best thing for you to do is to get yourself around people that
speak the language that you can get better at it so I was like okay whatever
but I was looking anxiety and I didn't really want to go to the table but my
roommate was like oh well come with you like come on like you can do it let's go
so then I like built up all this courage and I went to the table and I was like
um hey and so there was a guy standing in front of his table in front of the
table can I speak and a girl and then behind the girl was like another girl so
then I was like "Hey!" and the guy was just kind of like and the girl was just kind of
like so then I was just kind of saying that I really like is somebody gonna let
me doing this club so then the girl that standing standing behind the other girl
comes she's like hey my name is I don't remember her name so we'll call her
Jessica I don't know came and was like "Hey my names Jessica" and I was like okay and introduced myself
and she was like are you interested in Korean culture and I was like yeah like
definitely her and she was like I think the clubs over there would be better for
you and the club's 'over there' were KSA which is Koreans student Association
and a club called 4NE1 now KSA had been known in the past to just be
about kpop but it's not it's more about like Korean culture and you know meeting
our people that are that love Korean culture just like exchanging that just
having fun and like learning how to make Korean foods and stuff like that and
like that's really cool and on like I could join that Club but I want to learn
the language and then 4NE1 is more about kpop learning kpop dances
doing flash mobs and stuff like that and I'm just not really interested in that
at all yeah I'm just not interested in that and so it was kind of like she
thought I was just like a Koreaboo trying to join the club Koreaboo is the
same as weeaboo if people do not know a weeaboo it is somebody that appropriates
Japanese culture and wants to be Japanese fetishizes Japanese people and
I think that's pretty much it and so it's the same thing for Korea boo just
for Korean culture basically so I think she thought I was just like one of the
people that I were just like I love kpop every king
I know I don't care about anything else in Korean culture I just love kpop I
hear all the men look like the men in kpop videos in Korea like is that true
and that was not the case and so I get why she kind of turned me away kind of
but at the same time it was kind of a microaggression because it was like you
don't know if I speak Korean you just asked me if I was interested in the
culture you don't know if I speak it you don't know if I grew up there you don't
know if I just came back from Korea and like I'm fluent in it you don't know if
I'm half Korean and just look more black and Korean like you have no clue and she
just didn't let me join the club which I'm pretty sure goes against some type
of like regulation but it's whatever it's fine
I'll just you know come back next year fluent in Korean and when they're like
oh we're interested in the culture I'll just respond in Korean and be like no
I'm actually here because I hear this club as we will that only speak Korean
or that are fluent in Korean and I'm fluent now but yeah so that happened and
like it did hurt my feelings a little bit like I was a little peeved off
because I was like I'm in dang like again dang like you don't know if I'm
fluent you don't know anything about me you just ask me thought there's a
certain culture if you wanted to know do I speak Korean or not you should have
been like are you fluent and creating it and then if I would have said no but
then I can understand her being like yeah well this is when people that are
exchange students with Korea will be with I speak fluent Korean and I would
have been like okay like and that's understandable but yeah microaggressions
so after all that happened we left the Silva affair we went
thirsting then I grabbed lunch with my friend and my roommate went back home so
I go to my friend's apartment or yeah her dorm and she's like asking me to
help her look for outfits for this party tonight I'm helping her and I'm like
you know whatever and then so I help her pick out an outfit that I go back home
because I'm gonna get ready for this party but um so we get ready and then we
have this thing called it's well it's like an uber and you're supposed to call
it but sometimes I think forever to get here and it's nuts I backed up and they
don't get your call or they cancel your freaking call and it's ridiculous and so
we were trying to figure out where our uber were supposed to drop us off at and
the parties kept even shut down and canceled so we really you know what
forget it we're gonna go get pizza just forget partying parties will always
be there we'll party some other night so we go we get pizza Arbour finally comes
let me go get pizza and then so we're coming back and my sidewalks are not
paved well and so we were walking back and I had two boxes of pizza and I and
one for my other roommate and I literally trip and there's just cars
that's like pulling up that's like pulling up to like the stoplight cuz
like we're in front of like now they go well yeah kind of like a main road and
this car is like full of boys and they're all like shouting out the window
hey we saw that we saw that we saw a trip Wow we saw you trip oh and I'm like
oh my god like this is so they're like they're literally screaming this like to
the point where my roommate that was inside the apartments that she could
hear screaming outside and so I was screaming back at them oh yeah that's so
funny I'm dying I'm laughing I'm Kiki Kiki I
am dying and like I was just so embarrassed like I was like wow like of
all the homes to try so they were just like screaming that and they rode off
into the night dramatic I know and so then we go inside and like I'm
embarrassed so I'm like oh my god that was so embarrassing like I'm gonna kill
myself and these boys are in fluff and they're in the mailroom and they just
look at me like shook like they're like
so I'm like oh my oh my god so all that happened that night I went
up inside ate my pizza and I cried myself to sleep it was a really
interesting day and so that leads me into why I joined YouTube by doing
YouTube to tell these weird stories that happen to me sometimes but also to use
it as a creative outlet to get my thoughts out there to let people really
know you know how I think why I think this you know how I'm feeling things
like that and I think it was probably really therapeutic and I see my channel
just being a place where people can come and like discuss their opinions and
their thoughts and you know and like whether it be family friends like the
audience anybody like can come and be like hey
this is what I feel about this and like me to comment on it or like if I'm you
know talking with my friends me my friends to comment on it like I'm also
gonna try to do like a podcast channel so I'll have the chit chats and like sit
down with them but I probably will also do it on my main youtube channel which
is like confusing but yeah like I just I needed a creative outlet another one and
I thought YouTube would be a good way to do that and I've been thinking about
joining means you've literally since fertilized I remember literally since
middle school but I record videos and then have this habit of never posting
them but finally I'm posting my first video so you for watching if you sat
through all of that all that awkwardness and all of my blinking and not looking
directly at the camera thank you and I hope to put up more content
and I will see you soon thanks for watching bye
