ROOMMATE SETS 5 ALARMS AT 6 A.M. AND STILL OVERSLEEPS.

That familiar symphony of beeps, buzzes, and increasingly frantic iPhone melodies starts precisely at 6 AM. Five different alarms, strategically placed, yet somehow, the most brilliant mind you know still manages to snooze through them all. You're wide awake, contemplating the mysteries of human consciousness or perhaps just how to discreetly hurl a pillow, while they remain blissfully adrift in dreamland.
It’s an unspoken ritual of our shared cramped spaces, isn't it? The bizarre, endearing, sometimes infuriating habits that define dorm life. We came here driven by ambition, fueled by late-night coffee and the pursuit of knowledge, only to find our most profound insights often emerge from the chaos of communal living. This isn't just about a roommate's questionable wake-up strategy; it's about the unwritten rules, the delicate balance of respect and exasperation, and the profound lessons learned outside any lecture hall.
Remember those early mornings, the pre-dawn silence shattered by a cacophony of alarms, a prelude to another day of intense study and intellectual sparring? These aren't just annoyances; they're the vibrant threads in the tapestry of our undergraduate journeys, bonding experiences that shaped us as much as any seminar.
