This 1981-82 year it ' s granny quilt comforters. 1 get to know a lot about the girls in room 309 Stringfield. Like who ' s in love with whom; who ' s failing English or histo- ry; who keeps her room clean, and lots more of the gossip. You might ask how do 1 know all this since I ' m just a bed. Well, like any other bed I keep my eyes and ears open. I listen to all the juicy gossip be- tween roommates and suite- mates and all the lovey-dovey on the phone. 1 see the D slips, the Twig, and their let- ters, too — along with all the books and papers thrown upon me. With access to all this I could be the world ' s first Dear Beddy. Other than all the talk I learn a lot about the gids them- selves. Most gain ten pounds their freshmen year. 1 can tell when I ' m bounced upon. A lot of girls like to keep late hours, tcx3. Especially when there ' s a big test the next day! Most have their little girl qualities still. They can ' t seem to part with their bears and baby dolls. If 1 could talk to the guys, I could warn them who ' s the good housewife and who ' s the one too lazy to even make me up. -L OF MY SENSES are ready to lar today ' s gossip. Freshmen 25

Coming Up Have you ever thought about just how many possessions a woman has? You probably wouldn ' t come close in guessing. Usually there are three bags of hang- ing clothes, two suitcases full of clothes, big boxes, pillows, a television, food, and some- thing we cannot live without: the old teddy bear! The stairs seem to get higher as the trips get heavier. Once everything is in the room it looks as if a tornado has blowr through. After all the boxes, suitcases, teddy bears, and curtains are put in place, the room seems to be finished. But it is not until the pictures of boyfriends and family are put up that we are reminded of home. With this final touch we can call our residence hall rooms at Meredith home. THE WHOLE FAMILY gets involved as freshman Tammy Lee moves to her new home in Stringfield Residence Hall.
