Help! What dorm should I live in?

[magic_cactus]

<p>Hey, I'm a member of the class of 2010 and I am experiencing cold feet/ indecision about what dorm I should live in. I thought I could use some outside opinions --- I'm curious as to whether they would match what I had in mind.</p>

<p>-female, don't really qualify for the cultural houses
-As MIT students go, I'm probably pretty conventional, at least in the more superficial ways. I like the movies, shopping, hanging out in the city, going to museums and concerts, volunteering, running, swimming, etc.
-I want a social atmosphere, but not so wild that it's hard to study or sleep often. Personal space is obviously awesome, but I don't feel like I need a single as a freshman.
-I really dislike cigarette smoke (get coughs/colds a lot --- I suspect smoke would aggrevate them), but I love cats.
-RBA seems cool, although I don't need it (I did fill out the app, though)
-I'm into environmental science --- my geekiness is of the tree-hugger rather than the sci-fi variety.</p>

<p>What do you guys think? Thanks!</p>

<p>To qualify for cultural houses, you have to be interested in the culture. So anyone can qualify.</p>
