I'm going to be living in Moulton next year. I got a triple occupancy room (bunk and loft). I was just wondering if you knew how people liked it and maybe how they managed to live in a room with 2 other people for eight months and not go crazy? lol. I'm kind of worried about it.

I know someone who lived in a triple in moulton three years ago and found it okay...

at times it can be difficult, but others it can be awesome. as a person living in the room, you have to try your best to be the most civil person; ie not playing your music loud when others study, talking on the phone in the room til 4AM, picking up after yourself...etc etc.

it is a transition, but it can be done!!

Thanks, it's good to know that it won't always be difficult. Hopefully, it'll be more awesome than difficult. hehe!

I'm going to be living here next year too. I was just wondering what the washroom situation was like in Moulton. Are there a couple per floor or...?

I believe Moulton is like most rez's where there are commonly shared washrooms on each floor. The washrooms also have a bunch of common showers as well, and there are multiple sinks with mirrors. Usually 1 guys and 1 girls common washroom/shower area per floor.

Anybody know anything about how much space we get to store clothing and other stuff in a bunk and loft room? Is there a closet or anything?

The loft person (ie person C) has storage in the following areas:
- drawers (HUUUGE and deep) under the mattress in the bed
- a wardrobe
- in the desk
- in some of your roommates storage areas if they are nice and like to share

What's the setup of a quad room? I couldn't find much info about it on the mac website and I'm kinda afraid that it'll be super cramped

The only quad rooms I've seen the setup for are in Woodstock; where there were four loft beds, desks, and wardrobes. And there was LOTS of space. I don't know if it will be the same in Moulton or not though.

Alright, so about the bunk and loft room, I'm bed B so I don't have the loft. Do I not get as much as them or something cause that would definitely be a piss off?

You get the same or a bit more. I can't say what your storage will be like, as different residences have different storage (ie Hedden's is different than Whidden's which is different from Woodstock's...). The only one that remains the same is the loft.
