1. On campus life .

I remember the dorm next to mind had their residents evacuated for 2 hours one 3 am Monday morning . Smoke was pouring out of the heating ducts . I am glad they evacuated everyone .

2. i live in michigan

it was pretty cold out side, maybe it was the drowsiness and my cold(discussed in the topic "must i swallow this") but i kept thinking to my self "something should be burned at the end of this"

4. Mom to eyesroll: "Why don't you move to the dorms next year?"

Eyesroll to mom: "Are you on crack?"

(I lived in dorms for 4 years as an undergrad. I'm 30 and I'm not doing that again.)

5. I remember those - great fun.

I especially liked watching as folk's other-halves silently slinked off into the night....

When I was in a hall at university a good friend and neighbour made sure to be on good terms with one of the sub-wardens so we always had advance warning of scheduled fire-drills. :D
