Hi, I'm Cheri, and I'm an alcoholic.

All in unison: Hi Cheri!

Just kidding. My name isn't Cheri.

Not really, it's actually pretty effective in terms of meeting people . Besides, everyone is bound to go to the washroom at sometime during the day

I'm not on campus right now because I'm recovering from an ice-pick headache and I don't want to overdo it with clubs in my first semester.

I'd like to keep up with MI, and some academic things, and join the Maroons and/or Smiling over Sickness. I was considering a sport but I think that may be overdoing it.

How does one go about joining the Maroons? Is it simply the September 16th meet up at 1280?

That's awkward.

Girl 1 washing hands, looks over at Girl 2 drying hands: So... what year are you in? Smells great in here doesn't it?

Girl 2: "Um..."

You guys are crazy, I've met SO many people in the washrooms! It's not awkward at all.

Thanks!

In Keyes, there are actually a lot of upper years, compared to other residences. I encourage you to just go around and knock on some upper years doors. Also, talk to your CA's and hopefully they will be trying to connect upper years with first years through programs.... I know that I will be

I think the Science Society has a mentoring program of some sort. It's probably a good way of meeting upper years.

It's not that weird at ALL. And it's not exactly stalking :S. It's more like I'm walking into the washroom, you see someone whose room is like right beside yours.. and that itself sparks up a convo =S Not sure what's so weird about it.. you're going to be living with these people for 8 months, you're bound to see them all over the place, including washrooms
