Always shy, she enters the term still thinking that people see her as a kid and doubting her abilities. She discovers that her roommate has eloped, leaving her with both halves of the rent to pay. As she worries about paying the rent and finding a new roommate, she becomes friendly with an old boyfriend who seems like too much of a distraction. She wants to focus on her final term but realizes that some distractions cannot be ignored.
