Window stuck open all winter.
WINDOW STUCK OPEN ALL WINTER.
Follow us for more raw chronicles from the heart of campus life.
Remember those dorm rooms? Not always the picture of gilded comfort, were they? For many of us, the 'extreme conditions' weren't just a rumor; they were our daily reality. Picture this: blustery February nights, the library beckoning, but your very own window is stubbornly, perpetually, wide open. The kind of open that invites frost, turns your breath into mist, and renders even the thickest blanket a mere suggestion against the biting cold.
It wasn't just about shivering through study sessions, huddled over textbooks with numb fingers. It was about finding innovative ways to insulate a historic but drafty frame, strategically placing sweaters, or accepting that your water bottle would literally freeze overnight. It was a bizarre rite of passage, a shared battle against the elements that somehow felt intrinsically tied to the relentless pursuit of knowledge within those hallowed halls. These weren't just quirky inconveniences; they were the backdrops to late-night debates, the silent witnesses to breakthroughs and breakdowns, forging a unique kind of resilience. We didn't just survive; we learned, we grew, and we built bonds in the face of absurd, unforgettable challenges. These are the stories we tell, the threads connecting us long after graduation.
