rainboworeo: it smells like must, dank, cologne, sex, and body wash. what isn’t there to like about that?

My roommate must hate me...

collegeislame: I just sit in my corner of the room - most of the time in the dark - cackling like a mad-man while I go through my dash. She’s probably afraid that I’m going to kill her or something. She should be afraid.

Freshman Fantasy Failure

nonsensicalthings: Ok so, my RA from last year had a bday party last night and apparently hooked up with some girls from our freshman dorm and I’M NOT GONNA LIE, I’M A LITTLE JEAL. This year me thinks it’s all very funny. Last year me is LIVID. He was my first brown boy crush because they didn’t make them that way in South Jersey. I just had to write this down. My frosh RA fantasy has been...

mycollegesandcareers: The time of year has come to clear the cobwebs and let in some sunshine! That dreary dorm room of your could probably use a good deep clean and a small face lift.

ilovemycurls: Well while I was taking a shower the drain overflowed and I spent about 7min in a puddle drowning my feet -___- I feel disgusted.. I think I’m going to die. Goodbye Tumblr.

CURIOUS AND CURIOUSER: SINGLE OR DOUBLE? →

mooserider: Dorm room wise. Help ): Single Don’t have to deal with roommates having early classes and probably making as much noise as they possibly can on their way out. Lets not mention their alarmclock. Can study in room. AND LISTEN TO MUSIC WITHOUT HEADPHONES Communal washroom, possibly co-ed (am I…

basicallynita: I already verbalized it over the phone pretty loudly to my friend…and most likely my other residetns but i kind of dgaf… 1. Do Not, I repeat DO NOT, ever say “If I get billed for other peoples’ actions, it will not be pretty” to me ever again! I’m pretty sure you do not know about my alter ego…

Vent, vent, RA vent

haveaquote: No, I won’t let you in the building. Why? Because I know you don’t live here. You can’t go wandering around into someone’s living space. And then there’s no fucking reason for you to be rude when I ask you a direct question, asking if you live here or not. Obviously you don’t, or you wouldn’t be brushing me off as if I’m a bitch. I’M DOING MY JOB. So good job people, you just put...

origamiarmadillos: 11. if you give me two kitkat bars ill let you jump on my banana 12. never do a dirty girl scout. ever.

zenami: So I was just sitting at my computer, my roommate is out, bla bla bla And I heard this funny noise coming from near my door, sounded like… scraping? I thought maybe maintenance was cleaning the glass on the lounge window next to my room But when I looked through my peephole, someone had moved our door tag over it so I couldn’t see So I opened the door and uhm This I mean what ...

Lament of a College Student Right Before Spring...

mirrormonster: Oh, my cabinets are bare! There’s so little there! I’d eat old Doritos, but the bag’s all just air! These beans might be old… Dear God, is that mold?! I’d order out pizza, but I’m not made of gold.

lisforlillian: I’m pretty sure I finalized my decision to start applying to grad school. My goal is to get my masters in Higher Education and Student Affairs. Anyone have suggestions on places to apply?

melissajudy: Ok, so this is my first ever blog post. Be gentle. I’m used to reading others’ blogs and essentially being a blog stalker (quick, add that to Urban Dictionary!) but I realized that I have some stuff to say too so I might as well put myself in the conversation. A few years ago, let’s say…

bael: first i hear them listening to Linkin Park, now they are singing along to 30 Seconds to Mars. someone DEFINITELY got broken up with

I Can't, I'm on Duty: The real definition of 'RA' →

dutyra: Sometimes it is surprising that a lot of people don’t know what an RA actually is. When you say “I’m an RA” people often ask what it is (generally folk of the older population). But nonetheless it can be challenging to fully describe what it is that we RAs do. So here are some extremely helpful…

haveaquote: My name is Hilary. Not “the RA.” God dammit, I have a name. And just because I’m in your freaking hallway does not mean I care what you’re doing. I’m not your mother, dear god. Don’t be a jerk. These are the moments I hate my residents. Taking my frustration out by packing.

thereisafineline: So, for the first time in my RA career, I made a wildly crappy bulletin board. It was a long weekend and I just didn’t have the energy to do a good one. But it turns out that it was a good thing, because they ripped it down. I had no idea that “Where are you going for spring break?” was such an…
