    I figured the arrest might deter some of the drug dealings? Nah he just doesnt bring it in the room any more (got a car). I will give him credit, he is very fun to party with.
    I got back to my room at Towers once after class and DPS was tossing my neighbor's room. He kept saying "there's nothing in here, there's nothing in here, I don't know what you're looking for". Then there was a pause. Then he said "that ain't mine, that **** ain't mine."

    Re: Bad roommates

    I hate to admit, but for my first few semesters at ISU I was probably the bad roomate.

    For the first semester I was the dumb*** that went home every weekend to see my girlfriend and work. I didn't make any friends and didn't hang out with my roommate at all. He was a nice guy and had been in the dorms for a couple years so he had friends on the floor. At semester he moved down the hall with a friend of his. He was still nice and everything so I understood.

    Second semester I had a new roommate name Paul. Another nice guy and we got along ok and hung out some. Of course this semester my GF dumped me so I spent a huge chunk of my time being depressed about that. But I was kind of antisocial and played a lot of Playstation by myself instead of hanging out with guys on the floor like I should have. Paul moved down the hall at semester.

    Third semester I got matched up with another nice guy, but we didn't have a lot in common. I ended up making really good friends with a guy down the hall and we hung out a lot while my roommate hung out with other guys. He moved down the hall at semester.

    Fourth semester my roommate was awesome. I hung out with him and my friend from down the hall. We had a great semester hanging out. He moved into a house at semester and my friend and I moved from Helser into Friley. We considered rooming together but didn't want to end up hating each other and fighting, which worked out fine.

    Finally my third year in the dorms my curse was broken. I had the same roomate for the full year! We were friends and hung out a lot. His nickname was Stoney Dan so he knew how to party, even though he was a straight a student on full scholarship.

    nothing wrong with being the quiet roommate :) as long as you weren't doing some of all this other nasty/creepy **** that other people are posting about. Like trying to make a move on your roommate's girlfriend or something.

    Glad my son didn't get your room. Someone left him a bottle of Jack.

    Back in my day we didn't have Freddy court so the only alternative was to rent a house or apartment. I was cheap and just stayed in the dorm until my last year when I moved into a house with some friends.

    When were you in school? Right now I've found it much cheaper to rent a house.
