Oh Odors


 
As I opened the door to my room yesterday I smelt the wonderfulness of a tropical fruit air freshener.  Emily had decided to get a different air freshener because she thought the first one we bought smelled like old people.  I didn't really mind it though.  The only bad thing this new air freshener doesn't do, is cover up the smell of cheesy nachos and molded milk.  I told Emily she needs to clean her dishes from a week ago, but she keeps procrastinating.  This is her specialty.  Once we get rid of the half eaten nachos on the couch and dirty cereal bowl, I'm sure the smell of tropical fruit will return.

STUPIDITY AWARD FINALISTS


In college there is a lot of free time.  Now what better way to spend that time, then by looking up funny videos on youtube??  My friends and I were bored in the dorms one day, so we went on youtube and came across many interesting videos.  This is just one of them we found where people are doing stupid things.  Check it out!

Living in the Dark

My roommate and I came home the other night and realized we had some electricity issues.  The main light in our dorm burnt out! :(  The night this happened, Emily walked into the room, tripped over our trash can and landed in a pile of dirty clothes.  Ha. I'm glad I wasn't the first one to walk in.  We had to use this little flashlight and mirror light to see.  It didn't really help much.  We told the front desk people about our problem and they said it probably wouldn't be fixed for the next three days!  So as of right now, we've just been living in the darkness.  It's been a hard couple of days and I can't wait until this light is fixed!

Bon Appetit!

The other day I came back to my dorm room and was starving.  I looked under our couch, where we store our food, and saw something that caught my eye.  Pasta!  I soon discovered I didn't have a pan to cook it in.  I decided to walk down to the kitchen, to see if I could find one.  Already cooking some pasta was a guy around my age.  He saw that I was didn't have a pot to cook in and told me the front desk lets students borrow kitchen supplies! Once I had my pot, all I needed was a cup to measure the water with. The other kid cooking pasta told me to just eye it.  I didn't really have a choice, so I was thats what i did. The only bad expericence that happened while cooking, was my fork melting.  Here's some advice, don't stir with a plastic fork, it'll turn into a claw!

Wise Spenders!

My roommate and I are all about saving money. We are bargin hunters and always look for those good deals. Today we drove to the Thrift Shop and scored big time. Everything was fifty percent off! We bought an air freshner, two packs of bubble gum, candy bars, a pair of socks, wall hooks, and some makeup. All this was bought of a whopping price of five whole dollars!! At Wal-Mart the other day, we only bought necessities. We try not to waste money on stuff we don't really need, like gum and candy...unless it's half off. :) It also helps if your roommate has a boyfriend named Ethan. Then you get his old microwave, couch, and fridge! And even though the fridge had grass in it, the couch came with spiders, and the microwave had crusted butter, we didn't care because it was all free! Another way we save our money is by bringing our own dishes and then taking 'extra' silverware from the Union.
