4frant( eHt 7 0 MORE 3am fire drills, EIGHT PEOPLE TO A BATHROOM, DUST BUNNIES, OR DINING HALL MEALS. THIS IS APARTMENT LIFE. THE 12 BY 12 DORM ROOM IS NO MORE. YOU FINALLY HAVE YOUR OWN BEDROOM, BATH- ROOM, LIVING ROOM, AND KITCHEN. What a V WONDERFUL FEEL- ING! FREEDOM, AT LAST! APARTMENT LIFE CERTAINLY HAS ITS PERKS, ONE, BEING KITCHEN ACCOMMODATIONS. A FULL SIZE REFRIGERATOR IS OF THE UTMOST IMPOR- TANCE. THIS SHOULD BE FULLY STOCKED AT ALL TIMES. BEING ABLE TO COOK MEALS IS ANOTHER PERK, EVEN IF THEY ARE COOKED IN THE MICROWAVE. RAMEN NOODLES HAVE NEVER TASTED BETTER! FINALLY THE EXTRA SPACE AN APARTMENT OFFERS MAKES LIFE INTERESTING. THOSE PARTIES THAT YOU HEAR ABOUT CAN NOW BE YOURS. NOW THIS SHOULD BE DONE CAUTIOUSLY. YOU WILL «t M C 30 it i». Student Ufe WANT TO GET SOME PORTION OF YOUR SECU- RITY DEPOSIT back! Along with living in an apartment comes the bills: power, telephone, water, and cable. This is not a perk. You MUST pay them! Also, YOU ARE NOW RESPONSIBLE T FOR YOUR OWN FOOD. ■ .. , You MUST BUY GRO- CERIES. Starvation IS truly not an option. Sometimes you will FIND THAT YOUR ROOM- MATES HOUSEMATES ARE NOT PERFECT, BUT REMEMBER YOU DO HAVE TO LIVE WITH THEM. At LEAST FOR A WHILE. Although apartment life is not per- fect, IT offers those of us who want SOMETHING DIFFERENT THAN THE 1 2 BY 12 DORM ROOM AN INTERESTING AND EXCITING OPPORTUNITY. Get OUT AND MEET YOUR NEIGHBORS, HAVE SOME FUN, AND REMEMBER TO LEAVE A LITTLE EARLY TO CATCH THE BUS. Photos by Erin Beach yft t e c cf.
