mmf 'Ya W Dorm A Definite When my RA opened the door to my room that first day of school, I was shocked. That was my room in front of me? Well isn't this cute, my mother said. Why do parents always try to make a bad situation good? Here I was standing in the doorway of a room as big as my parent's walk-in closet, I didn't know who my roommate was, and what does my mother say after stomping up three flights of stairs with my suitcase? Isn't this cute? Well, since that first day, I have learned a lot about living in a dorm that I didn't know before. First of all, I learned that dorm closets can't fit much more than ten shirts, two pairs of jeans and a clothes basket - skis are impossible. I also learned that when going to the restroom, you must always check the hall for your neighbors' friends who just might be visiting at 7:00 a.m. Washing clothes, however, is much more entertaining. The only thing that takes longer than washing Peter Marsh Cfar leftl watches Barb Kruk take the final shot in a pool game at Twin Towers. tphoto by: Mark Raskini David Stonestreet Ibelowl eats a late night snack of egg rolls. tphoto by: Chariot Ras- Allardj loe Engel Ilefti takes advantage of Burger King's 39st hamburger special. tphoto by: Charlot Ras-Allardi E. 'f'. Living Adjustment three weeks of dirty laundry is find- ing enough quarters. Whatever hap- pened to change machines with quarters? For that matter, whatever happened to change machines with change? But when the change has finally been made and the clothes gathered, the machines are always full. I haven't been able to solve this problem yet, unless I start washing everything by hand like my roomate. Taking a shower has become an athletic event. l've learned, though, that whenever the roar of a toilet flushing breaks through the air, it's time to practice sprinting or hur- dling. D , But the most difficult adjustment to make was learning to eat the food. After years of steak and potatoes, I just can't help but order delivery pizza everytime the menu says Chopped Beef. Yet, living in the dorm isn't really that bad. Despite the wash, the showers and the food, dorm living can be a lot of fun. I - Cheryl Gravis Dorm Living
