Bae State Babes. The Lady Lounge. These are the two nicknames for 404 Kilachand – aka my sophomore year dorm.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

<\/span>I had already started a countdown for sophomore year on my last day as a freshman. Although I wasn\u2019t really ready to say goodbye to Warren (I will always love you, 720B), I was so excited to move to Bay State with my best friends and christen the Lady Lounge. Countless TV shows have documented living with your friends and I was excited. Were we going to have a Chandler-Joey and Rachel-Phoebe-Monica living set up? Who would be our Ugly Naked Guy? We\u2019re looking at you MIT frats.<\/p>\n

<\/span>Jen and Meredith are in the double and I\u2019m in a SAMwich with Sam and Sammi. We\u2019ve got the perfect set up, with each of our personalities proudly displayed on our respective corners. We\u2019ve also got AC, a record player, and a whole bunch of seltzer. So basically, the Lady Lounge is where it\u2019s at.<\/p>\n

<\/span>I have to admit, although I was beyond <\/i>excited to live with my best friends, I was also a little nervous. Why was I nervous? Was it the ghost of Eugene O\u2019Neill that haunts the fourth floor of Kilachand? Unfortunately, no. There hasn\u2019t been any paranormal activity (that I know of). I was living with some of my favorite people in my favorite city, but I was worried that living with my Bae State babes could possibly hurt our friendship. Would we get sick of spending all of our time together? The answer is never.<\/i> Our friendship has only become stronger, especially now that we share a bathroom (there is no such thing as privacy).<\/p>\n

<\/span>I have so many memories with these incredible ladies and I know we\u2019ve only been at school for two weeks, but these past couple of days might be tough to beat. Here are some of my favorite roommate bondings \u2014 for new and old friends!<\/p>\n

DANCE PARTY<\/b><\/p>\n

We at the lady lounge are very fond of dance breaks. Especially to ABBA. Mamma Mia is our JAM.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

MOVIE NIGHTS<\/b><\/p>\n

Movie nights were a staple of our friendship last year. We laughed. We cried. We watched\u00a0Rent<\/i> and<\/i><\/b> the Last Five Years<\/i> on Valentine\u2019s Day. Movie nights are the absolute best. Especially when paired with popcorn and pajamas.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

TRADER JOE\u2019S RUNS\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

Because who doesn\u2019t love Trader Joe\u2019s?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cOLD LADY\u201d ESPLANADE WALKS<\/b><\/p>\n

Grab your roomies and get those arms pumping. The Lady Lounge is very fond of slow walks on the esplanade as our main form of exercise. All we need is matching tracksuits.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Cheers to the new year and to a new year of roomie lovin’<\/p>\n
