When you're logging into someplace that you don't log into very often (bank stuff, residence hall stuff, etc.) , they should tell you "this password called for at least 6 characters, at least one each of lowercase, capital, and numeric" so you don't have to spend ages going through and trying every combination of passwords/passwords + numbers/ ( Read more... )

I was just playing around with the room transfer thing, and I can't find a single open room at all listed (I typed in HU, the Hutchens code, as the search terms and it only brought back my room as a result for the entire building). I think perhaps it's not up/working yet--it also lists my room rate as something like $2500, when there isn't such a rate anywhere on campus, much less in the suites. (Not that I'm complaining if this turns out to be actually the case, but I'm a tad worried that it's "This is what you have to pay after we take out your scholarship", in which case I'm definitely going to have to switch down into something cheaper.) But yeah, if you can get moved into the honors section on Hutchens (I don't think I could handle living amongst the general population), I'll def. tell them to move me into your room. Unless you get the 2-person suite that you want, though (LOL, I feel bad rooting against it but I am because I like you), because though that would be cool as hell, it's also an extra $600 that I have not to spare.

Because I'm still playing around with the thing (finally got it to work--took a browser close and it started refreshing right when I chose things from the menus), though, there are spots in 0823 and 0825 that are 2-person that would at least put you on the same floor as me. Nevermind, looked those up and they're guy rooms. (I think they're two person; they're under the 2 dropdown menu, but the rate code isn't refreshing from 4. Strangeness; you'll have to play around with it.)

How did you request your room the first time around? Maybe you could tell them that you were trying to request the scholars' floor and it didn't go for some reason; since you're honors college, you were supposed to get first dibs, they'll at least put you at the top of the list for transfers if anybody switches out--the transfer periods are now through the end of the month, and then again a week or so after school starts, so you've got two chances.

Do you know anybody else going down to MSU? I know of a couple of people from my school (even had a class with two of them), but none of my friends are going to be there.

If we can get a four person together, I guess that'd be cool too. At least then we'd both have someone we KNOW we like!

Well, I was a dipshit and turned my stuff in kind of later, because I gave them the wrong SSN, then couldn't get a fax machine to work for me because I fail. So I'm not quite certain what's going on...

I think I'll ask that question. I'm certain I'm in HC, I signed up for it when I went in to do the interview for the Pres. Scholarship, but maybe they didn't get it? When I get denied for the next request I just made a few hours ago, I'll e-mail the lady back and make certain that I am in fact honors college...*panics a bit*

I know two other people going to MSU, but they weren't really friends. One is very...strange and has an annoyingly pitched voice, and the other is insane. Partier and stuff, not my style, thanks.

Do you have AIM? or google talk?

This is true. And LOL at applications!fail. Fax machines are difficult, though; our generation was never really taught how to use them because everybody started moving to email, yet they hang around enough to be confusing.

And I don't, actually, have either of the IM things. I use different computers a lot, especially in the summer when I hang out down at the library (IL that book smell, plus my parents don't like running the air conditioning as much as would be comfortable, so I go hang out and leech literary coldness), plus, idk, I prefer to have the record of email or whatever.

Did you ever tell me when your SOAR thing was? I seem to remember July, amirite?

(Oh, and update on the my suitemates thing? One of them changed her religion thing on Facebook from just "Christian" to "Christian--it's a relationship, not a religion". I've always found that creepy-arsed, marriage to god crap just incestuous as hell--is he the heavenly father or your husband, because you really need to pick just one, IMO.)
