My sophomore year I was fortunate to get a campus apartment. Usually the apartments go to juniors and seniors but that year I lucked out.

My roommate that year was a cross between Ruthie on the Real World Hawaii and Phoebe Buffay on Friends. She'd get piss drunk on occasion, but she was also a good friend who you could rely on when you needed her.

One night during spring finals week she wanted to do something stupid. It was 3 in the morning and I'm like "don't bother me I'll be in the living room studying". So she takes our TV and VCR from the living room and brings it into our room. She then hooks them up to her stereo speakers and faces them toward the window. She puts in a video--it's PORN. Then she presses the "AUX" button on her stereo, and at 3 in the morning the entire apartment complex was awakened by the PORN movie.

Everyone's screaming and yelling just like in Eddie Murphy's Coming to America (I know you know what scene I'm talking about) and she almost got in trouble. Our RA wanted to punish her but even he had to admit that it was funny and he only issued her a warning. That and she had to let him borrow the video.

I also forgot to mention--
One summer I lived with another group of 3 girls. I knew that one of them was a lesbian, and I respected as long as she didn't make any advances toward me. One day I was searching through her video library (I was bored and I needed something to watch) so I found a dubbed copy of "The Lion King", only it wasn't the Lion King. It was a girl-girl porn movie. I don't know what it is about me and roommates and porn.

Two weeks later I caught that girl and our OTHER roommate in the same bed under the covers. I have nothing against lesbians, but I can't handle it in my own house, IN MY OWN ROOM! I marched right to the RA and requested that I be moved immediately.

Sometimes I miss living in the dorms, and then I think about that one summer, and I'm glad that I live at home now.
