Overall I don't have much to complain about when it comes to my dorm neighbors, but the guys next to me have an unfortunate tendency to decide to turn up their bass at the worst moments. Like, at 12 at night when I'm trying to sleep, or a few minutes ago when I'd laid down because of a headache, had been dozing nightly with Pandora Radio on in the ( Read more... )

Alright, when we my three new roommates come out the woodwork (whenever that is) we are not going to have popcorn in here again unless the person who makes it brings in a vacuum and cleans it up themselves, because picking pieces of crushed days old popcorn off the floor =/= fun ( Read more... )

Apparently this whole "Eve" mess is because roommate K and Eve's roommate want to move in together. They deny writing the notes (which I've compared and they have nearly the exact same wording) but that aside they are basically manipulating the two of us (including one trying to bribe me) into moving in together when both of us have made clear that ( Read more... )

I think I solved the mystery of the note and the mysterious "Eve", and managed to confirm my instincts that. It wasn't the girl named Eve who wrote it, it was the roommate of the girl named Eve is who is trying to get her to stop playing WOW and meet people in the outside world ( Read more... )

So far nothing has happened today other than going down to get breakfast, but so far it's nice. I woke up around 11:30, while the other two roommates and one's boyfriend are only up within the last half hour. Said boyfriend was actually very much a gentleman while he was here, and he's welcome to come back as far as I'm concerned ( Read more... )

I don't want to be the person at college who never comes out of their room, but it might just be in my nature. Later on I'm going to talk to my RA (who seems really nice) and basically say "Help! I suck at this social stuff! Only child! From a small town! Gay! Too mature! Where can I find people like me ( Read more... )

Currently there are two other roommates, with a third "theoretical roommate" or "Schrodinger's roommate" who may or may not join us at the end of the week. It's a decent room with a nice view, and I've more or less gotten my stuff set up. It has a view of the Boston Common that I'll get in the daylight. I still need some stuff at CVS, but ( Read more... )

I'd estimate we're about 80% as far as the packing goes. Through a few alterations in packing materials (what was originally in a second box is now in a duffel bag that can go into the rooftop storage container on the Prius) we have actually more than enough space for everything ( Read more... )

How many ways can you fit a sheet set, mattress pad, blanket and a towel set into one underbed container ( Read more... )

Yeah, it's ragweed season. I keep sneezing, my eyes hurt, and I'm stuffed up. Mom kindly got me some Zyrtec the other day to see if that helps, but it hasn't kicked in yet ( Read more... )
