A New Beginning

The first day of Sociology was very awkward.  Salituro sat in the back of the room and was silent. You could hear a needle drop, that't how quiet it was.  Being in a class with some people that you have never met before can be nerve racking, but when Salituro started the class in silence, he was breaking our class out of our normal routine which is having your teacher stand in the front of the classroom and begin speaking, but he wanted us to do the talking.  Eventually we started talking.  Salituro made me feel uncomfortable at first when everyone was looking around the classroom and not knowing what to do, or whether or not we should talk but I think that our class learned something that not everything is set in stone and that anything can change in a split second.  When applying Sociology to my own life, I think of breaking your normal routines, stepping out of your comfort zone, and learning new things.  Taking each day one at a time and not looking back at the past and no regrets.
