Someone discovered this "game" which involves the "one month dress." Here are the rules: you are allowed to wear one dress, all week long, for four weeks- excluding Sundays. Sundays you are allowed to change, but just for the day.
You are allowed to 'alter' this dress in different ways, however. Scarves, pants, leggings, jackets, earrings, etc. All can change, but the fundamentals remain unchanged. My roommates and a few other girls just left to go thrift store shopping with this in mind. Isn't it wonderful? Granted they all have the extra accessories so they won't just be walking around looking the same everyday, but I love it! I didn't have time to go tonight, due to a preponderance amount of papers, quizzes, readings, projects, and tests coming up (not to mention I'm missing class for three days to go on an earth science trip!) but I am still thinking about participating.

zzzZZzzzZzzz.....O.O
The year has just begun, but the adventures just keep on a coming.
My sleeping pattern has been very much disrupted this week. Typically, I enjoy 8 hours. Going to bed at midnight, waking at 8- or 9 on Wednesday and Friday. Due to the fact that the Canadians, Stalin, and I went out star gazing Monday night, I was a little late getting to bed. It was around 12:30, and I was rushing a bit. I was in the bathroom with Ev, when I feel a splashing on my feet. My first thought, was, Wow! She brushes her teeth vigorously. Then I realized the back of our sinks were spewing forth water. Not one sink- all three. Our bathroom floor now has an extra shiny coating of water. First I ran upstairs to get the RA on duty. She of course has no idea about plumbing, though, so she went to get Dave- the RD. He was just about as clueless. The water had stopped meantime, though. We decided to leave it until morning when we would file a maintenance report. So that's what we did. We had it into the office by noon. Spasmodically throughout the day, we would hear the sinks gushing..... No one was even IN the bathroom! Ridiculous. I ran to get the maintenance so that they could see the problem. The guy 'in charge' came and saw, but it was after dinner, and everyone had gone home already. He decided to leave it until morning (Great.). Around 12 the sinks are going off again, and this time, BAD! We are now wearing sandals to pee. And it smelled like gross plumbing! But I was going to bed. I was so close to sleep when my phone rings. I hate that! I was so close to sleep. I rolled over, and was so so close yet again. This time, I hear men voices in the hall. It's closed hours, what could they possibly be doing? Well. They were mopping our bathroom. Apparently the water had leaked down into the guys rooms below us (oops!). Anyways, Sleep was pretty much shot for me until 2 am. And the maintenance FINALLY decided to fix the problem.... at like 7:40! Gee thanks. It's important in the morning when I'm trying to sleep but not yesterday at noon when I told you about the problem.
