It was always easier making friends with Gryffindors first, they understood her. The third year slowly made her way towards her bed and didn't lay on it, but instead she jumped on it.

And continued jumping. It was tradition now, jumping on her bed. It was the best way to make friends. Because normally by the end of the night someone else always ended up jumping with her. Easy icebreaker. Aaand it eliminates all the awkwardness that comes along with shaking hands. Yeah, jumping on beds is definitely the way to go, or talking about Lafay because that always makes for an easy conversation. Nika noticed that most girls were having a conversation of their own so she decided that instead of continuing to jump in silence she'd just give them all a general greeting.

Eh. Someone will probably respond anyways. "Hiya everyone! I'm Nika." She smiled widely as she looked around the room. She was able to spot some familiar faces, but a few were new and Nika needed to meet them.
