God sam, it has been forever. I remember you from way back when.

There are so many people that you can hardly be labeled "new kid" when you go in January. I'm trying to find someone that I could respect, a new friend to hold dear. There are a lot of just plain idiots and losers, and you have to navigate around them.

My room mate is pretty cool. A little anti-social, but a good guy. Whenever you meet your room mate, don't be afraid to lay out the ground rules. If you cover those early, you should be fine. As long as you NEVER loan your clothes to her, she will have little opportunity to steal them. I never walk into his side of the room, it would just be too uncomfortable for me, whether he is in the room or not. This isn't to say your room mate won't be a low down thief, but the implications there are much more grave than her just taking your clothes.
