As I enter my last few weeks living at Bromley Hall, I am starting to realize just how many memories I've made here and how this dorm has had such an impact on my freshman year of college. If you currently live in Bromley or have lived here before, then odds are you can identify with some of these daily occurrences that we go through as Bromley residents.

1. When you leave Bromley for the first time that day

Bromley is an entire neighborhood within itself, and if you really wanted to, you could go a week without seeing the light of day.

2. When someone finally comes with their fob to save you

You could be in a group of 10 people and none of you will have brought a key fob.

3. Trying to enter Bromley past 11 without your Bromley ID

As the scary guy with the beard stares you down like you're a degenerate.

4. Trying to get in through the back door past 9

It just takes so much effort to go around to the front.

5. Getting stressed out whenever the cops come in to eat

One time they yelled at me for cutting the line. Sorry, but I don't want to wait for all 50 of you guys to swipe in.

6. The sliver of patience you have for people in the elevator

No yeah, please take the elevator down one flight, it's not like I'm late to class or anything.

7. The panic that takes over you whenever said elevator breaks down

A Bromley resident's worst nightmare.

8. Watching check-in when you're sober

Bromley check-in after Monday night Joe's or Thursday exchanges could truly be turned into a reality show.

9. Coming back for check-in when you're far from sober

"Emily, you just have to act sober until we pass the front desk, got it?"

10. Sneaking into study hours to get chips

And then running away before the RA yells at you.

11. NEVER have you ever stepped foot in the public bathrooms

How about no?

12. "Of course you live in Bromley"

^ If Bromley could talk.

13. When you don't live on floors 6-8

Waiting for the elevator is a real struggle for many.

14. You've called the wrong Jimmy John's on Green Street

And you never learn.

15. You've made "plans" to swim in the pool, but never actually have

“No, like Becky when we’re blacked out one day we HAVE to just be crazy and go for a swim!”

16. You've had to be creative in the cafeteria

**settles for pasta**

17. Waiting the entire week for Bromlettes at Brom brunch

"Number 32 LET'S GET IT" ... if you know you know.

18. When some b*tch takes your laundry out of the machine

And that moment of panic when you think your laundry was stolen.

19. When you have a package but haven't gotten a text yet

“Hi I think I have a package”

“Have you gotten a text yet?”

“No.."

“You’ll have to wait”

Damnit.

20. When the RA at the front desk ask to smell your water bottle

Narcs.

21. When you forget paper to print your essay

And you have to try to finesse some from the person printing next to you.

22. When you get the knock from the cleaning lady and you're still in the room

23. When the lights turn off in the study rooms while you're still in there

Damn motion sensors making me flare my arms around like an idiot.

24. Seeing how long your suite can go without toilet paper

Its a game of waiting how long until a roommate caves and buys the next roll.

25. Knowing that you’ve been spoiled and that leaving Bromley will be the saddest day of the year

I'm not crying, you are.

It goes without saying that living in Bromley Hall your freshmen year is an experience to say the least. For those who didn't live there, I'm sure 6 pack and Newman are nice, but nothing compares to the small city of freshmen that is Brom baby.
