PS about the 'easy' roommate

If all else fails go here and purchase that poster for yourself. Or make your own if you want. But listen here, do you really think your stranger roommate is going to constantly abide by these rules? It's all fine and dandy to say "hey roommate, overnight guests only once a week", but people who have just gotten away from their parents rules will not likely be keen to follow yours.

You can give the 'overnight rules' your best shot. But if your roommate feels like breaking the rules once in a while, then they will. You can report them, but that will obviously cause tension. If anything you should make some 'get out of jail free' cards (like 5) for when your roommate or you break the rules. If all 5 cards get used you agree to not have any overnight guests for a month. Then when the month is over, you decrease the 'get out of jail free' cards to 4. and so on and so forth.

And just a note, if you've ever heard your parents 'making love' in the room beside you. You'll know that sometimes people think they're quiet when they're not. And you should be ready for this with any overnight guest. Hence the earplugs being a good investment.

Again, I'll let you know when I get there. But from my prior knowledge and acquired life skills, it's better to be safe than sorry.

The List : "The freshman 5"

May I introduce to you all... the list.

This link shall mark both the flow and focus of the blog and my video entries on the You Tube channel. These 'tasks', if you will, shall help you, the reader, decide if these are options that will help or hinder your college experience. As I gain readers I love for you guys to suggest things for me to do.

I'll start off with 5.

1. Start a video and written blog
2. Connect with my roommate
3. Introduce myself to my dorm neighbours
4. Participate in frosh week
5. Go to a dorm floor event

Look forward to this people and listen to tales of me likely failing in all social situations.

Welcome to the Beginning

Today while sitting at home in monotony watching a show on Cosmo TV that attempted to be both entertaining and education I was struck with the idea to make a you tube video. And this is my lovely product.



Follow me as I catalog my entire trip through freshman year at my university while I give you helpful tips and tricks along the way to survive and spice up your freshman year at college or university. Will it be entertaining? Yes. Why? Because my entire life up until now hasn't been all the momentousness so anything else that happens will be great.

Helpful College/University Tip #1: If you do happen to get a fat or unfat roommate who happens to give it up easy, a smart investment is earplugs. You may also want to sleep facing the wall. And try to ignore the shadows you may seen against it.
