this is what i have learned so far:
1) head phones in your ears means that your room mates won’t talk to you.
2) make sure that your head phones are plugged in to something otherwise room mates will ask you why you are wearing dangling headphones.
3) carry tons of one dollar bills. no you are not using them for a strip club, but a vending machine.
4) buy your own toilet paper. the stuff that is in the restrooms is the stuff you also find at a hardware store.
5) shower with your shoes on! why? there have been an incredible amount of nasty feet and bodies that have been cleaned in there.
more to come!!
