College Housing

Hey guys! Home for Easter this weekend, so thought I'd blog a bit.

 

But OH MY GOD. Next year is going to be awesome! So today (well, at the time of writing this, technically yesterday) was the housing lottery for the substance-free housing for next year. Me, my future roommate Tom, my current rommate Josh, and my friends Nick, Alex and Katalin all agreed to live together there. Not only did we get lucky enough to live together, but we'll all be neighbors: Tom and I in one room, Katalin and her roommate Courtney next door to us, and on the other side of them Josh, Nick and Alex will have a triple together. The group of us are already really close friends, so the fact that we'll all be living withing two to ten feet of each other next year is awesome.

 

Oh, and for those who don't know, substance-free housing means that, regardless of legality of age, drugs/alcohol/whatever are completely prohibited in the building. This works, since none of us do anything like that anyway. But I needed to go off on this, I'm really excited about next year, and so are the others. It's gonna be great! 8D

Dude, that sounds awesome. Great for you!

 

I'm going to college this fall; I hope I end up with a similarly cool rooming situation eventually... for now I'm just hoping I like my roommate Freshman year.

Most colleges have an online "form" of personal information (hobbies, music preferences, etc.) that you can fill out, and they use that to help determine a roommate for you, so that really helps. Since pretty much everyone at my college filled it out, the vast majority are matched perfectly with others as roommates, though there are a couple that are flukes and couldn't be worse together.

 

So yeah, if you fill one of those out, your chances of getting a good roommate are pretty high. :)

Oh sweetness! I hope that goes well, and seems like a great step out in life as well. ^^ Rooming with some of your best friends is super awesome.
