"Isolation": A response to Victoria's essay





This image reminded me of Victoria’s essay. Although she was willing to take a chance and step outside her comfort zone, it seems as though she distanced herself from the true challenge she was facing: making new friends. Without giving her roommates a chance, she tries to leave them and find a single where no socializing would occur. For much of the trip she isolates herself from making friends because for her, that was the largest challenge. I consider her to be the red apple, not trying to blend or connect with any of the green apples that surround her. I think she can take this idea even further and maybe relate it back to an occurrence of why she feared socializing and meeting new people.
