6 Signs You Lived In The Six-Pack At UIUC

Choosing what dorm you live in as a freshman is a big decision; there are so many options at Illinois. If you chose the six-pack, you made the right call. Sit back and reminisce about all of the great memories you had in the Ikenberry Commons.


1. Texting your friends what section you were sitting in at the Ike.

Because the Ike is the biggest dining hall in the nation, the seats are arranged into lettered sections and there's even an upstairs.


2. You probably worked out every day at the ARC because it was so close.

Here in the six-pack, you literally can't give yourself an excuse not to workout. A state of the art gym is just a two-minute walk away!


3. Who needs Starbucks when you have The Caffeinator?

You saved some time (and some cash) by not having to stop off at the Starbucks in the Union Bookstore before class! Thank you, Café Credits!


4. 57 was there for you when no one else was.

Whether it was your dinner before you went out, or your pint of ice cream when you stayed in, 57 was always there for you on those late nights.


5. Leaving five minutes before every football and basketball game started.

Shoutout to Memorial Stadium and the State Farm Center for being so close to the six-pack. You never had to worry about getting stuck behind the parade either!


6. Odds are, you were probably a social butterfly.

If you were lucky enough to score living in the six-pack, you were blessed with a social dorm. You always found yourself meeting new people!


Your dorm can make or break your freshman year, so stick with the six-pack and create lasting friendships and endless memories. Living in the six-pack will really give you the full college experience!

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
