Welcome To The Suite Life Of 406

Welcome To The Suite Life Of 406
Hannah Gough

You thought living with one roommate was hard? Try living with three of them. The dorm that we live in is Beasley and Beasley is a sweet style dorm. Suite style rooms are two rooms separated by a bathroom. Last year when I purposed the idea of super suiting (which is having all four beds in one room and having the other room as a hangout area) to my best friends, Rachele, Taylor, and Nissa, they all thought I was nuts. They didn’t think this was going to work, but they went along with the idea and here we are today, and we haven’t killed each other yet (thank God).

Moving all four of us into our suite on the fourth floor was quite the challenge. We not only had to carry all of our belongings up four flights of stairs, but we had to move one set of beds into our bedroom, and a couch (Praise the Lord Jesus for our fathers). After we got all settled into our new room (which took FOREVER), the fun began.

You would never realize how many problems you may run into when you’re living in one room with three other girls. You have to downsize on all of your stuff, you have to make sure all of your stuff is off the floor so there is room to move around, our shower times conflicted, everyone has different bedtimes, and sometimes, we just don’t want to confront each other about it (which causes problems in the long run). Getting ready in the morning is quite the challenge. There’s four of us trying to use the one mirror to do our makeup, we have wires that are tangled because of our straighteners, and we all argue about what music we are going to listen to. In fact, mornings in the suite of 406 are very entertaining. Luckily, we finally have a routine to where everybody knows everybody’s schedules and we don’t conflict with each other as much.

Life in the suite of 406 can be very exciting as well. We get not only one room, but we get two rooms to live in. Living with my best friends is like having a sleepover every night. It’s so nice at the end of the day to come back and see all three of my friends and talk about our days. We’ve had so many amazing memories in our little sweet. One time, Nissa’s fish died after three days of having it in the dorm and we had a huge fish funeral for it. Almost every night we all lay in our own beds and just talk with each other and laugh until we all fall asleep. Another time we ordered a pizza and got Creator Delights and had a suite dinner. One of our favorite things to do is pile on one bed with each other and just lay there. These are moments that I cherish.

I honestly don’t know where I would be without my roommates. I would be lost without Taylor’s consent love and advice, Nissa’s attitude and hilarious comments, and Rachele’s crazy moods and her hugs. We’ve all seen each other at our best times, and our worst times, and you know what? I wouldn’t have it any other way. Who would have thought that my crazy idea of living altogether would somehow end up being a huge blessing?

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
