Room draw, rats, midterms...

March 27, 2011

Hello everybody!! So this week has been full of events from room draw to rats to midterms! Yes some of us still have midterms to complete, unfortunately. This past Tuesday was room draw and as frustrating as it was, I managed to get a room, a tringle! Many of you might not know what a tringle is so I will explain. A tringle is three single rooms sharing a bathroom. These tringles are located in Rangeview among the doubles. They are really spacious and fun if the other two people are your friends so I am excited for next year. Also this week my psychology professor asked me to stop by the Psychology Laboratory, known as the Rat Lab, to see if I was interested in volunteering and helping with a research project. I am not a fan of rats so at first I was creeped out, but soon I saw them as little pets. I also saw the breeding room where they had newborn rats (they are actually adorable)! So I may or may not take the volunteering job, but we will see. I will keep you guys updated with that. *OH and for those who read my previous blog post about my plans for spring break I have news! I did pass my driving test and finally got my license! Woohoo! Now I have to wait 2-3 weeks for the actually driver’s license... darn. Well I have to write essays and study for one last midterm, so I hope you all have great weeks! Thanks for reading my post! SIDE NOTE: Congratulations to the students who received acceptances from Oxy!! Until next time! -Marilyn
