<p>It seems like fun! I think I wanna join the Woman in Science and Technology house. </p>

<p>More info:Living</a> Learning Communities: Residence Halls</p>

<p>That's what I'm going to try for! Haha. Either that or a sober hall so I don't have to deal with drunks.</p>

3

<p>I was thinking about that to...but I was wondering if like ex-drunkies join it to keep clean...I donno anyway...</p>

<p>It just depends on which dorm you get in. Some have one but not the other.</p>

5

<p>What major did you get accepted into? And are you going to UCSB for sure?</p>

6

<p>I got pre-bio which was my first choice. And I really donno, if I don't get into UCLA ( small chance!) I will go to UCSB almost 99% sure, just gotta push my dad over to let me.</p>

7

<p>I'm pre-Computer Science and I'm 99% too (except I don't need to persuade...my brother went to UCSB and it's close to home). I'm still waiting on Stanford (but I reallllly doubt I even have a chance there).</p>

<p>Who knows? Maybe we'll be roomies.</p>

<p>Just look for me around campus XD ask for Muserz.</p>

<p>Theme housing sounds fun! :D</p>

<p>I would probably Women in Science and Technology, Substance-Free (so I don't have to deal with drinkers also), or Wellness.</p>

<p>I never really understood the point of themed housing. This is college, a time to meet new people. Wouldn't you want to live with people that are different from you, so you could explore new things?</p>

11

<p>^You don't have to be in themed housing if you don't want to.</p>

12

<p>Yes, I know :) I lived in a general Manzanita building back in 2005 when I transferred to UCSB.</p>

13

<p>^Yeah I 'm interested in Manzanita.</p>

<p>Did you like it?</p>

<p>I honestly didn't like it, but my situation was different. I was a new transfer student but I got put into a house that was mostly 2nd year students. These students already had their friends from freshman year and/or were pretty anti-social. I still managed to make friends as well as finding a roommate I really liked for the following year. Still, I feel like it wasn't as fun as it could have been (although i managed to make new friends in my last year at school and I kinda overloaded on the fun factor my last year).</p>

<p>Since you're a freshman, they typically put all the freshman together in Manzanita buildings, I think in the Las Encinas quad.</p>
