Avoiding the No-No Neighbor

I don’t know how many times I’ve griped about the girls down the hall who pump heinous music at the most inconvenient times of the day, but we’ve all had a go of annoying neighbor syndrome.

Wanna Lose the Booze? Canned Wine!

Recently I attended a faaaabulous champagne party.

The shower shoes, the sloppy Friday nights, the obnoxious girls down the hall that think it’s cute to blast LFO’s “Summer Girls” for the whole building to hear. It’s such an important era in your four years of fabulous.

Avoiding Awkward: Last Year’s Hook Up

So, everyone’s had (at least) one of those, knew him well enough to say I know him, hooked up with him one night while blackout, now terrified to run into him-type of guys.
So, what the hell do you do when you’re back on campus after a long peaceful summer miles away from the guy? Where […]
