You Can Tell We've Known Each Other Forever

Madam President needed to borrow tweezers, so like a good friend I walked my tweezers over to her dorm.  When I got to her room, I opened the door without knocking,  plopped down onto her bed, and threw the tweezers at her.  After she yelled at me for potentially scaring her for life because my tweezers could have killer her,  I went over to her fridge and pulled out a water bottle to ice my shin splints.   She yelled at me for that too, apparently rolling a water bottle on its side can contaminate the part you drink out of.... learn something new everyday.  

How to Make a Person a Little Bit Homesick

Moving out I knew somebody else would be occupying my room in my absence.  Since Elizabeth Taylor made it her duty to bring it up every chance she got when we had BOTD and AL in the room.   In the end Super Trooper won the battle, much to the disappointment of Elizabeth Taylor.  Two days after they moved me into Newman I got a text from BOTD that went something like, "Super Trooper would appreciate it if you would move the rest of your clothes out so he can have his dresser."  Followed by this,

My room was no longer my own.  So when I came home over the long weekend, I asked Super Trooper why his bed was in my room.  He promptly responded, "MY Room."   Rooming with him over the weekend was quite the experience since our sleep schedules do not exactly line up.  No worries, technology helped me out and he got to watch "bideos" on my "pone" while I slept in a little later.  

I guess I must have made a lasting impression as the best roommate ever because I got a text from AL this evening,  "Super Trooper wondered where you were when he went to bed and was very upset he missed your phone call with Elizabeth Taylor earlier."  Followed by the conversation she had with him in which he asked if I was coming right back.  

Man that kid really knows how to play your emotions, made me want to Face Time him right there.  Sorry buddy, I'll try to catch you tomorrow. 

What I Learned Today

There is such thing as coffee naps.  How it works is you drink a cup of coffee and then you take a twenty minute-ish nap.  While you are sleeping the caffiene in the coffee has time to get into your system so when you wake up you get the benefits of both the nap and the coffee.

This fun tidbit is brought to you by one of my friend's English paper topics.

An Update on My Roomie

All my worries about my roommate were actually rather inaccurate.  I'm not saying we're going to be best friends who are attached at the hip, oh no that will most likely not happen.  However, she's really not that bad, she keeps her stuff organized, we have decent conversations when we're in the room at the same time, all in all not a bad deal.  So today I felt a little bit bad when she accidentally got locked out of our room.  She had run into the room and set her stuff down and then ran back out without a word, I just figured she was in a hurry to meet some friends or something.  I also figured she had her key, so when I left shortly after to go up to my friends' room I locked the door.   

I was sadly mistaken, she did not have her key, as I got a text ten minutes later asking me to come let her in, whoops.  

Note to self:  Make sure the Roommate has her key when you leave.

Marshmallow dodgeball is very sticky.  It also is very difficult to see the marshmallows when you are playing at night so you can't catch them to bring your teammates back into the game.   Plus, once they are on the quad they really aren't edible anymore, which is sad because I was really looking forward to eating marshmallows.  I guess that's what the bonfire tomorrow is for.

On the bright side, my team won twice.

Command strips are false advertising.  They won't just stay until you come along and decide to take them down. Sometimes the things that they are supposed to be holding up will just randomly fall off the wall. 

What I Learned Today

They give you a lot of free stuff in college.

Today I acquired two new t-shirts, a cup (the cup was filled with popcorn), a water bottle, a bag of kettle corn, and a drawstring bag.

What's even better is that tomorrow is Quad Day. I've been told there is a lot of free stuff at Quad Day.
