At the Beginning

So here I am at last; a freshman living in the dorms of Western Oregon University. This whole week is new student week, which has consisted of seminars, fish bowls, dances, games, and motivational speakers. The speakers have been amazing and the games are all fun, but its an adjustment nonetheless. I was at first terrified that my being gay would be a problem to my roommate, but much to my surprise, he didn't care that I was gay as long as I didn't care that he was Jewish. Neil Simon, write your play now.

On that same topic, the other people in my hall are all convinced that I'm straight. How the hell did this happen? Someone upstairs is laughing at me. I don't want to say anything to make people uncomfortable, but I'm in a hall full of over-sized jocks. I'm in a position I've never been in before. Someone please tell me what to do here?
