I'm living in my house next year too! It'll be the third year in a row (at school) that I've shared a room, but no matter how small the room is, it'll be a lot better than the tiny rooms I've had the past two years now! I think there's around 36 girls or so that live in, most are double rooms except the president is the only one guaranteed a single (some girls get singles second semester when others go abroad, but it's rare) and there is a room or two that could be quads or triples, depending on how many girls want to live in. There's 2 floors of bedrooms with a communal bathroom on each floor. The main floor has the formal sitting room and tv room, and also our house mother's office thing (I've never been back there, so I don't know exactly what's there). Downstairs is our kitchen, study room, and laundry. We have a cook and a small waitstaff and I think they have cleaning people too every once in a while.
I'm a little nervous since I don't know a lot of the girls all that well (considering they're from my lil sis's pledge class) and the house rules are sometimes stricter than the dorms even (when I've lived in an apt pretty freely for a year now). But I think it's an experience that you have to have if it's possible and it's a great way to get to know more of the girls better! Plus, I'm looking forward to living closer to more greeks and closer to a lot of things around campus.
