The Dorm Room




I was pleasantly surprised when I opened the door to what I would be calling my home for the next 10 months. I was extremely fortunate when it came to the size of the room. Most of my friends here have a shoe box for their room (literally four walls and two closets). My dorm has A-frame wood ceilings, two windows, and a nook for both my roommate and my desk. These are the simple luxuries of living in a college dorm. All of my friends are jealous of our room and want to trade. I probably live on the only floor in all of CU that is all girls; all of the other floors are co-ed. But, I must say that I don't mind walking around like a zombie in the morning, and down the hall in my robe without a boy strolling down the hall at the same time. I live in what I like to call a "suburb" of campus. I live in the Kittridge Community, which is on the outskirts of campus. Because the school puts us so far away from campus they thought that if they gave us a few nice ponds and some ducks and geese everything would be ok. So, far I am not complaining because I have my bike that gets me everywhere in about 5 minutes; I gotta work that "freshman 15" off some how. 
My roommates name is Lauren Shapiro and she is from Dallas, Texas. I love her to death and I could not have picked a better roommates. We get a long really well and we never seem to have any dull moments. She always makes me laugh, and half the time she doesn't even know that she is being funny.
