Recent College Grad- "Dear...From Jason"

------Dear Recent College Grad,

My name is Jason and I stumled across your blog when looking at groups on facebook. I saw that people have been writing you questions about what to expect in college. Im really excited man I think this is going to some of the best years ever! However I have alot of doubts about living in a dorm room with some dude I don't even know. How the hell is that supposed to work? Recently I got his telephone number and when I called his mom told me he wouldn't be back for another two weeks because he was teaching at a "theater camp". This makes me think that he is either a fag or a complete wierdo. I don't know man I'm just worried about this random guy screwing stuff up for me during my freshmen year. What do you think?

Dear Jason,

Jason, I am terribly sorry that your future roommate not only attends a "theater camp" but decided to actually be an ambassador for the field. Overall my experience with the dorm room was badass as hell. Now I did know my roommate but I have heard alot of dorm room success stories. I wouldn't worry about this potential loser hendering your freshmen experience. (If you're a winner, you will win) If he is into all of that theater/acting bullshit then he will probably be spending a substantial amount of time with other people who share his interest in acting/giving handjobs. On the good side this random roommate might bring some decent skirt back from one of their "try-outs" or whatever they do. Not all drama chicks are ugly, but most are pretty wierd. In the event that he brings some girls by the dorm room be ready to have your phantom of the opera dvd out on your desk and then act really bashful when they bring it up. You need to give off that "I'm alot cooler than this guy but I appreciate art" kind of vibe. Good luck with that. Overall Jason you should have a kickass time living in the dorms. Some of my highest and lowest points from college took place in a dorm hall. (hook up with girl vs. urinating in elevator) My advice on this issue: See what happens move-in day with the roommate and in the meantime prepare yourself physically/mentally for a grueling first week of college. Just remember to double-lock the doors when you are checking out the latest girls gone wild video.
