Dorms/housing, which ones are the best?!

<p>Im taking my Evo 10 fools</p>

<p>Need to choose a dorm soon! Sierra or Valley!?
I kind of like Valley better but I dont want to share a room with 3 other people >_< ah well......Which hall is the best?</p>

<p>I know I"m so confused too!</p>

<p>Which one are you gunna be in ?
hmm
Are you gunna random a dorm mate or..?</p>

<p>Well i have been asking questions to potential roommates on housing.ucmerced.edu site but i haven't picked a roommate yet.</p>

<p>How do you ask questions to potential roommates?</p>

<p>oh the housing.ucmerced.edu they let you on there sign in then click on application then sign ur contract. then you can search for a roommate.</p>

<p>How do you ask them? hm... are you going for doubles?</p>

<p>yea I'm going to do doubles.</p>

<p>That survey was the shortest survey ever!!! It was only 10 Questions and 4 of them were the opposite to the one before. why dont they make the survey with more questions so they can match you up better? I think why they dont have that many questions on the survey is because there arnt enough people to match you specifically.

*I choose the Mariposa and i am on the second floor!!! *
what's was weird is that i selected a room with a person already in it, which mean's he is my roommate, right?(He confirmed) O and the reason why i choose the Mariposa, Sierra Terrace was because they open in fall of 2008 , so i will be the first one in that door! I pick a double, but with a suite of two rooms!!</p>

<p>Hm...Yeah the questions are pretty short....
So have you talked to your dormie? do you like how the Sierra Terraces are set up?</p>

<p>I actually think i would like the Valley better, but just because the dorm's in the Mariposa are brand new, was one of my main reasons(and some of the reasons i have listed on the page before this). Even thought the other dorms are only a few years old. </p>

<p>I havnt said anything to my roommate. All i know is his name is victor.</p>

<p>Do you care about the nationality of your room mate? I don't really but I tend to prefer Asian or Jewish room mate because of their study habits. Dunno how I would be able to pick one though lol</p>

<p>I'm not racist so i dont really care who i get, lol. Just as long they keep the dorm REALLY clean!! Cuz i am like a neat freak!</p>

<p>I am a neat freak too! haha
I think I am going to get one of the Valley rooms.. I noticed Kings Hall has one room left =P What do i Doooooo</p>

<p>If your a NEAT FREAK raise your hand!</p>

<p><em>raises hand</em></p>

<p>lol
I hate a dirty filthy room because it results in a cluttered mind. I also do not care the nationality of my roommate as long as he is clean, doesn't party to much, and takes a shower EVERYDAY(my friend at UCB told me about her roommate who never showers and who smells really bad lol). Those are the three main things.</p>

<p>Wow you guys are already picking roommate and dorms? I'm waiting for orientation, after that, I will decide.</p>

<p>darn I can't raise my hand...
does a neat mess count? haha if that made any sense</p>

<p><em>raising my hand</em></p>

<p>I know exactly what u mean.</p>

<ol>
<li>Take shower a LEAST every day</li>
<li>Is not filthy and dirty OR(thinks farting in a small room is funny)</li>
<li>Doesnt bring all 25 of his friends into the door for a party</li>
</ol>

<p>^^^ most important things for me</p>

<p>Everyone state which hall your going into!</p>

<p>I've heard that if ur roommate leaves (drops out) that u get the whole room to ur self. And they wont replace ur roommate. IS that true?</p>
