rfmcdonaldI've gotten the last of ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
escondidoid's postcards in the mail today--Aruba, Charlotte Amalie, and Barbados. They're nice postcards--thanks!
I also received a bill from Queen's University. I was worried, at first thinking that it was a missive of bad tidings. Instead, I found that it was a bill of five dollars levied for damage done.
From the end of August to the end of April, I lived in Phase II of Jean Royce, a second smaller satellite building. Three houses--my Shortliffe, the adjoining Tracy, and Trottier across the hall--were home to graduate students. Looking down at the cost per student table, we all have been levied only five dollars each. The list of specific damages done does not indicate any specific damages inflicted on the three graduate student houses.
Unsurprisingly, all of the damage comes from the houses inhabited by undergrads, in Miller house in Phase II but mainly in Phase I. Drunkenness and disorderliness were sadly common in Miller house. Once, a friend and I ran into three people who were staggeringly drunk at 8 o'clock on a Wednesday. I think that they might have been responsible for smashing the glass in the front entrance door, causing it to be boarded up and repaired at a cost of just over three hundred dollars.
Ah, the joys of dorm living. And this comes before the knife-wielding fellatio couple on my floor.
