10 Great Things About Living On The Same Floor As Your Friends

Living in a dorm can bring some of the best experiences of your life. There is nothing better than living on the same floor as some of your friends. Here are some things you are bound to experience when living in a dorm...

1. If you ever need a shoulder to cry on, they’re right there down the hall from you. (*cough, cough midterm week*)

(*cough, cough*)

2. Being able to goof off whenever instead of having to walk to a different dorm to see them.

Trust me, the walk to a different dorm during the winter is hellish in Upstate NY.

3. Inside jokes 24/7

Sorry not sorry for excluding those not on our floor.

4. Free Food, ALL THE TIME!

Gaining the Freshman 15 is necessary to complete the college experience.

5. More people to help you mess with your RAs.

They may be there to enforce rules, but they're also students like us.

6. PRANKING SEASON (shhh)

7. Competing against each other at floor events

I won a $15 Amazon gift card once, and my life was made.

8. Dinner Dates

Thank god we live above the dining hall.

9. Free Advice

Well, if you count sharing a bag of popcorn and someone's bed as a free trade.

10. Making friends for life, that you'll always be able to have memories with.

Word of Advice: Never break the code through floorcest. The repercussions may be more than you can handle

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.
