<p>it is dead but i don't think anyone has much to say. Where do people want to live next year??? I really want to live in a house.</p>
<p>Haha....yeah lets talk about dorms and housing. Well personally i spent overnight at a house and I thought it was awesome. But by talking to people, rachie3953, I got the feeling that dorming is definitely much better and advisable during ure freshman year. The pros are that basically you will be able to meet new people and make new friends while dorming and all of them will be in the same position as you are in! Houses, i reccommend after your freshman year because then you are well settled and you know a lot of people to have your own house..etc etc...</p>
<p>So yeah thats my take on it...rest is for you to decide!</p>
<p><em>cheers</em></p>
<p>what house did you stay in when you visited?</p>
<p>holmes i think....it was a house based on the theme of cultural awareness....awesome ppl!</p>
