Room Draw Night

So today (Tuesday) has been a big day, I've posted quite a bit.  I don't know if I've ever posted four times in one day...

Anyways, tonight was the infamous room draw night.  Basically it's madness that happens in Lower Gage as everyone scrambles for a room.  Right before Spring Break everyone was assigned a room draw number based on the credits you've accumulated.  The lower the better.  If you want to live in the apartments or Kohawk Village, you fill out some forms and that selection happens sometimes in March.  If you want a single, then last week would have been the time when you got your room.  Today was picking doubles, triples, or quads.

It's madness.  Really.  Heidi and I decided to room together and Heidi had a decent number, 783.  Everyone waited in the Lower Gage hallway until their number was called.  We then filled out our rooming contract and waited until our exact number was called.  From there we went into another room with floor plans so we could see what rooms were open.  After we decided we went to yet another room to place a hold on the room.  Heidi and I will be in Murray again and we are pumped.

The whole process took one hour and there were still people waiting.  Thank goodness it's done.
