Because they deemed that if a girl in footy pajamas is found in a boy’s room after midnight, it doesn’t matter because…she’s in footy pajamas.

NEMO
That awkward (RA) moment
irishcailin75:
When a friend of yours asks about the application process and all you can do is sit there and think “You would make a terrible RA.”
True story: I had this moment when a friend asked me to write her recommendation letter, since we used to require two letters from current housing staff.

Okay, so she kind of deserved it.

My sophomore year second semester I had a roommate named…well we’ll just call her Naomi Campbell. She was quite skilled in the phone throwing department, so it’s fitting.
To give you an idea of what Naomi was…

cranialconcepts:
I’m a resident assistant/advisor at a dorm and although it can be one of the craziest, most nerve racking, emotional, exauhsting jobs and I will curse myself almost every day for choosing this life there is always a moment that I am happy that I took the position. I think I’m in one of those…

I’m exhausted. Mentally and physically, I’m exhausted.
I’m hoping that this is just coming down from about seven weeks of excitement. I mean, I haven’t stopped at all since then. This weekend was the first time I’ve spent more than a few hours just having downtime since I got the job back in…
Hey anon, hope everything’s going better- This is honestly why I had to stop...

I seriously do not care if they read this, they do not do shit. Our upstairs neighbors almost everyday pound on the floor and we hear it every night. They drink a ton and yell and scream. They play “tag” in their dorm and stomp on the floor with their humongus feet. LIKE WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK! I…

Neighbor >:(
luciustheninja:
My neighbor in the dorm is very musically talented. She plays her guitar and sings songs with her beautiful voice.
At midnight on a Tuesday.
I think I’m going to smash her guitar. Sorry performing arts supporters.
Or you could be a rational human being, knock on her door and be like, yo dawg, I heard you like music, but I like sleep.
My feelings most weekends

You’ve developed the ability to run on 2 hours of sleep for multiple days.
You know the pizza delivery people. By name.
It’s a great day when the Health clinic FINALLY carries the good brand of condoms for your students.
You’ve dialed 911, more than once…almost all for alcohol related issues.
(PS digging the Kate Nash song lyric reference in the title of this one!)
