Dorm Life

This post is completely dedicated to funny and annoying things that happen in Pomfret Honors Quarters. 

• Annoying: The girls in the room next to us who feel the need to be extremely loud at 3:00am.
• Funny: living in the honors dorm where nerds correct all grammatical errors on flyers and signs
  Example: 

                                               

Background information: There is a girl who lives down the hallway from us and we refer to her as "Free Willy" because when I was moving in she had a shirt with Free Willy on it and the name just kind of stuck. Anyway...she is slightly awkward, and she has almost ran over Madison and I multiple times.

• Annoying: Free Willy running....everywhere, all the time. She runs to her room. She runs to the elevator. She runs to the bathroom. She runs into you. And since the walls are paper thin you can hear Free Willy running down the hallway. 

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

So in the middle of writing this the fire alarm went off! That is another annoying thing about living in the dorm; fire alarms that go off at 1:30am. This is like the 938493820893595th time that the fire alarms have gone off in Pomfret this year. Madison and I can recite the message that comes over the intercom. "beep, beep, beep....beep, beep, beep...Attention, Attention, and emergency has been reported in this building. Please cease operations and leave the building utilizing the nearest exit or fire exit." So I decided out of the blue to video this experience and I am glad I did. We walk out in the hall and Free Willy is wearing a CAPE! OMG is was sooooooo funny! I cannot even begin to explain how funny it was! You can just watch the video if you would like: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1EHbaQlHzZ0&context=C3e74962ADOEgsToPDskLYJqE5bpiETXjgsytYF1Bx

Then after we composed ourselves we sat on the rock out in front of Pomfret that we always sit on during fire drills. 

Then we remembered that it was the weekend and that meant that Lola Corolla {Madison's Car} was close by! So we decided to drive around because it was cold. We also documented this little adventure: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YWZXcewdog0&context=C3e74962ADOEgsToPDskLYJqE5bpiETXjgsytYF1Bx

So needless to say we ended up at McDonald's....along with a million other people from Pomfret. 

• Funny: When we came back from the fire alarm there were two guys in what is called the Pomfret Great Room {really just a big room on the first floor of our dorm}. One of the guys was riding a Rip Stick and the other was riding a Razor Scooter. It was pretty funny. 
• Not Funny Just Gross: the Pomfreteria {the cafeteria in our dorm}. The food {if it can even be considered real food} is disgusting. I have had more cereal since I moved to college than I have in my entire life. 
• Annoying: when people from the second floor ride the elevator! We live on the 8th floor people! That is a long elevator ride even if you are the only one on it! Use the stairs! 
• Annoying: when people don't take their clothes out of the washer/dryer. I am not your mother and it is not my responsibility to switch your clothes from the washer to the dryer! 
• LOVE: the Pomfret bus driver. He is this sweet old man who drives the bus that takes us to the top of the hill. He always has a little piece of advice everyday! When I am old I hope to be like him! 

That is all I can seem to think of right now but when something else comes up I will blog about it! 

Peace and blessings!
