I hope you didn't give up on my lovely blog! I was bogged down with Midterms, etc. I passed! I got B's in all of my classes so I am happy with that :) I did come down with a horrible respiratory illness the week of exams so I want to be a bit healthier for Finals!
Did I tell you that I moved to a new dorm? No, I haven't. I think I moved right after the Unified Quiz and then that picture with Lola was in my new dorm. I was not a big fan of sharing a bedroom.
To get a new room, I signed up for a single with the Housing Department the first week of school. I got off the waiting list the Friday before our big quiz, and I was given a room assignment in a triple suite. A suite consists of three bedrooms with a shared kitchen, kitchen table, bathroom, and a separate shower room. I went over to the suite my new room would be in a few times that weekend but no one was ever home. Meeting the roommates BEFORE moving in is necessary!
My friend Ashley was in the same boat, so I went with her to check out her assigned suite. The girls flat out told her that she could not live there since she was a first termer! No way! She was not living there! We went back to the Housing Department and they gave us a list of rooms to go check out. We ended up literally running around campus to find a room! So many excuses! No one was home, no empty room there anymore, etc. Finally, we found a room for Ashley and a possible second room in the same suite for me! (My old dorm, Superdorm 1 is pictured on the right. My new dorm, Superdorm 4 is picture on the right, in the distance.)
Our other roommate, Natalie, is really cool. We are a good mix and we're planning on living together next term too :)
