Susan is a very popular girl among her classmates. She has an out-going personality, and she is friendly and understanding. Although she has a lot of ideas and opinions of her own, she always listens to other people's points of view, and never tries to force her opinions on other people. Susan has been living in this flat for the past two years. She always takes the lead in organizing events, and she's popular with everyone in the dormitory. She has a happy way of getting in almost everyone to work with her, and would I think, make an excellent president of the student body.
