Dear Tutwiler,

My shower never got warm this morning.

But the girl in the shower next to mine was blasting Kenny Chesney, so it turned out okay.

Dear Tutwiler,

The air conditioner got stuck at 50 degrees today.

This forced everyone to bring their blankets to the common room and bundle up, while we played Cards Against Humanity, so it turned out okay.

Dear Tutwiler,

The sink where I brushed my teeth and washed my face was filled with ramen.

But as I brushed my teeth, my friend from down the hall told me her wild tales from the night before, so it turned out okay.

Dear Tutwiler,

The heater was on full blast today.

So my next-door-neighbor and I went for a walk, to cool off in the Alabama breeze. It turned out okay.

Dear Tutwiler,

Day after day, we are trapped in an 8x10 box.

But it only makes us grow closer to our roommates and our neighbors, so it's all okay.

Dear Tutwiler,

Last night I got woken up at midnight by a girl coming home late from her boyfriend's.

She cried on my shoulder and told me about the breakup, and I walked her down to Julia's to get ice cream and talk all night. It all turned out okay. He didn't deserve her anyway.

Dear Tutwiler,

In the fall, everyone will move to apartments and sorority houses, and new freshman will move in. No longer will there be long nights of doing each other's makeup and eating Dominoes. From then on, we'll only see each other in passing, and we'll surely grow apart.

But we'll have a year of memories to last forever, so it will turn out okay.

Dear Tutwiler,

Thank you.

Sincerely,

A Tutwiler Resident
