Room for 7: an intruduction

I created "Room for 7" a few years ago while watching the popular sitcom "Friends." As a fan, I have all ten seasons on DVD which includes bloopers, behind the scenes footage, and actor interviews. Teri Garr, who played Phoebe's biological mom, commented on the sitcom in one of those interviews which gave me the idea for "Room for 7." She had commented how it is not possible to have a close group of friends who are all "hot and good looking." She also said there is at least a fat one or an ugly one in a close friendship. She may or may not be right but it gave me inspiration.

    "Room for 7" is the story about seven college students living in one house. They work, study, and have different backgrounds.

Nathan Garland: He is a smart, geeky and shy student at USC. He works as an intern at Garland Investments, his grandfather's company. His Grandfather retired and is going to give him the company after he graduates. While his grandparents are living in France, they allowed him to live in their large house and use their car while in school. He did not want to have the large five bedroom home all to himself for four years. He decided to invite his friends live with him rent free while they too are in college. They do have to split the bills and maintain the house. 

Katie Sung: Also a student at USC. She is a geeky, petit and nerdy Korean girl and Nathan's childhood friend. She is a barista at a coffee shop. Her parents and Nathan's are close friends and partners at Garland-Sung Accounting. She has her own bedroom.

Eduardo "Eddie" Trinidad: He is Nathan's elementary school friend. He is a Latino student at Cal State Los Angeles. He works as a server. He shares the master bedroom with Jacob and Dylan.

Jacob Kendrick: He is also Nathan's high school friend and Eddie's best friend. He is a student at Cal State Los Angeles. He works as a car mechanic at his Uncle's Shop in downtown L.A. He is African American.

Dylan Hunter: He is the tallest of the seven. He is a student and basketball player at UCLA. He is a barista at a coffee shop. He is Nathan's childhood friend. His dad is an Accountant. 

Carmen Esperanza: She is a pretty Latina and student at UCLA. She works as a server. She is Eddie's cousin from her mom's side. She has her own room.

Samantha Harman: She is a student at Cal State Dominguez Hills. She works as a server. Her dad is a police officer and good friends with Nathan's parents. She is a vegetarian. She has her own room.
