<p>If you were given the choice to have a double, or a single, what would you chose, and why? (Haha, this sounds like an application question. Somehow..)</p>
<p>I'd want to have a roommate, but if you're feeling down or angry at something, you'd want to be alone for a while, you know? So .. hmm. If I had a single, though, I'd probably be waaay too lonely. :S Hard choice!</p>
<p>I think I'd go with double...itd be a hard decision tho. But I want to literally be with peers 24/7 lol....a single would get boring. But there will be laods of times where I wish I had a single. So idk...I'd take either one</p>
<p>I really don't know! Because I want the automatic friend, seeing as I'd be the new sophomore girl. But I have a LOT LOT LOT of quirks that would either freak someone out...
Like, I do my makeup in my bra. Weird? Yes. Necessary? No. But it's so damn comfy. Also, I wear tight jeans a lot, so when I'm getting ready the fly is typically undone (because they barely fit my waist, haha, stupid size 0 legs and size 2 waist combo). Weird again? Yah!
I'm so weird...</p>
<p>lol Saer! How do you do makeup in your, um, bra?? </p>
<p>Anyways, I would probably want a single, because I would like to have privacy and quiet and avoid conflicts and such... I mean, I'd like to be close to my peers, but just not too close, if you know what I mean. :)</p>
<p>I know, doesn't that sound so WEIRD?
I get dressed in stages, like obviously underwear then jeans then undershirt then shirt then shoes... Etc. I happen to do my makeup in between putting my jeans on and putting my undershirt on, lol. It's just a habit I've picked up over the years of wearing makeup/a bra.</p>
<p>Haha :) I wear some makeup (brown eyeliner, lipgloss), and I put it on with all my clothes on...</p>
<p>roomate- cause you want someone around to talk to, or help with on homework. plus you create a bond but if something goes wrong, like she's mad at you, she may reveal all your secrets then you're literally screwed</p>
<p>Saer, everyone does weird things. And you're not the only one to do makeup in your bra, lol. My day student friend once stayed over in my room one night, and I woke up and the first thing I saw was her standing in front of my mirror applying makeup in her underwear.</p>
<p>oh putting on makeup, semi nude or something? oh that's totally normal</p>
<p>I don't really wear makeup on a daily basis, so I guess that doesn't really apply to me.</p>
<p>Hahah thank god. Lol I thought I was doomed to freakdom... I'm so quirky ;) Its one of my many charms??</p>
<p>i dont get the jeans part though, why dont u wear bigger size jeans?</p>
<p>It's not really weird to not wear clothes while putting on makeup
and besides when you get to BS you get so comfortable with everyone in your dorm that it's really no big deal</p>
<p>Haha, yay for comfortability!
Well, I wear size 0 jeans from American Eagle mostly. I have a 30-32" inseam (I think?) which is size 0 but my waist is a size 2 (don't know the measurements) so I either have to tailor my pants length or just suck it up and deal with rather tight pants.</p>
<p>I want want a double....isn't that one thing that makes boarding school boarding school? plus I'd have an instant friend</p>
<p>I'd want a double like my first year but a single after that</p>
<p>Just the opposite for me. I would want to have a room to myself while I transition into BS but after that I would want a double.</p>
<p>You guys should not get your hopes up for an instant best friend by having a double though, most people are just acquaintances with their roommates.</p>
<p>^ Yeah, I was going to say that, too. I was really good friends with my roommate and I know other people that were good friends with their roommates, but I also know a lot of people that barely ever did anything with their roommates. It really doesn't turn into an "instant best friend" situation most of the time.</p>
<p>My friends at BS all tell me that almost EVERYONE starts out praying for a room mate. ... Don't you hate that kid in your grade that blares his rap music and has those ridiculous posters of Westbrook and Kanye? Well guess what? You'll be seeing him every day and night for the next 8 months.(Almost)
Only one of my friends actually wants to have a room mate(he made a pact with another person freshman year... I don't know if they get to pick room mates at his school). They tell me that your room is the only place where you'll get something done(other then end of the day study hall). Alot of friends are in your dorm... And that makes it hard to do work.</p>
<p>Honestly, most people like their room mates I'd imagine. The fact that someone else is making noise when you want to study or telling you to shut up when they are studying and using the electric cords for their stuff and setting the alarm for 5AM so they can have their "vital" morning jog is a pain that comes along with sharing living space with another person(sometimes).</p>
