20 Annoying Things People Do In Residence Halls, Told By Toy Story
We Heart It

Anyone who has lived in a college residence hall before will know that it's definitely an interesting experience. There are some perks, such as making awesome friends and being close to everything on campus. However, there are also some frustrating parts, one being that you have to learn to live with hundreds of other people. If you're curious about what I mean exactly, keep reading to discover 20 annoying things people in residence halls do as told by Toy Story!

1. Run down the halls

Ugh, this is the worst. Like I'm sorry, but unless there's a fire or you're about to burn something, there is no reason to disturb everyone with your stomping feet.

2. Burn food

I'm sure everyones done it at least once or twice, but there's always that one person who will never learn how to make popcorn.

3. Leave hair in the shower stall

Is it really that hard to pick up the hair with some paper towels?!?!?

4. Smoke, use hairspray, straighten hair, etc. near the smoke detectors

If you do this knowing that the smoke detectors are super sensitive, don't be surprised when everyone finds out you were the one that caused the fire drill. It'll be super embarrassing!

5. Sing songs while blasting music

I hate to break it to you, but you don't sing as well as you think you do. Also, we are not in elementary school anymore, so please stop singing Hannah Montana songs.

6. Have sex while everyone else is trying to sleep

I know it's college, but nobody wants to hear this. Also, think about the people who have tests at 8 AM the next day!

7. Walk into rooms without being invited

Mr. Potato Head makes a good point. Mr. Potato Head knows what he's talking about. Let's all listen to Mr. Potato Head.

8. Do laundry at 4 AM

I did this once and totally regretted it 5 seconds later because I could hear the machines from my room (the laundry room is conveniently right above mine). Never again.

9. Invite 5-10 people into the room almost every single day

There's always that one room full of people who are super loud and that everyone secretly hates. Don't be these people.

10. Scream "I'M DRUNK" before and/or after going out on Thursday nights

The entire floor already knows, so stop announcing it!!

11. Erase people's whiteboards on their doors

Honestly, how is this even fun? Acting 5 years old in college isn't actually cool.

12. Never flush the toilet

Bonnie is basically me when I open the stall door and see the unflushed toilet. I mean, is it really that hard to press down on the handle with your foot?

13. Be loud in the lounge

The lounge is a place for people to study and avoid their roommates, not for you to be distracting!

14. Knock on people's doors and say "RA, open up!"

You better make sure the real RAs aren't around, because it's actually offensive and completely unnecessary.

15. Leave toilet paper/paper towels all over the bathroom floor

What purpose does this serve??? Someone please tell me, because I just see it as littering.

16. Keep the door open so everyone can hear the loud TV

Come on people, there's a thing called manners!

17. Stay in the room even though they know you have a ton of work to do

It's so awkward kicking people out, but they're pretty much asking for it at this point.

18. Leave laundry in the washer/dryer longer than necessary

... and then complain about someone moving it.

19. Barge into people's rooms to either ask for something, rant about their problems, or be nosy

Chances are that you try to avoid these people as much as possible.

20. Smoke weed inside the residence hall

I don't care how cold it is or how tired you are -- the smell does not need to linger in the hallway for everyone to notice.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
