I talked to her at length, read from the college book (Been There, Should've Done That: 995 Tips for Making the Most of College) about roommate issues, talked to friends who said she has to work through that, it’s a learning experience, she is learning more outside the classroom than inside. Throwing four strangers together into one suite is almost guaranteed to be a problem, she’ll learn from it, get tougher, learn how to deal with people she doesn’t like which will happen wherever she goes, always, all her life. I sent her another email saying:
Alexandra, embrace the people you have a problem with. Don’t change yourself to suit them, send out good wishes and blessings every time you see them, and offer your problems up to God. He will take care of them.
This is a lesson for life, wherever you go, you will encounter people you will not get along with. Luckily, you can change that negativity by sending out positive thoughts. It might take a while, but it will never fail. I believe in you, Love, mother
(advice from my co-worker: You will get calls/e-mails full of drama, pick me up, I hate it here, you worry, can’t sleep, she moves on, you still fret, try to solve the situation, she’s already moved on and is happy now, for the time being, brace yourself for such times, and it is happening right now).
