Thanks for stopping by, guys!!
LOL! That's really funny...because my old college STILL doesn't allow dancing (though they claim that'll be changed next year, they said that LAST year, and the year before that, too). The doors wouldn't lock you out after curfew or anything; we had swipe cards that had the duel function of acting as keys while recording who came in when. Everyone is given 60 "grace minutes" (I found it funny that they would put it that way) per semester, so you can be late a few times, but not often. Our "open dorm" days worked the same way as yours...only both dorms weren't open the same days...the guy's would be open once during the first half of the semester, and the girl's once during the second half.
It was one of those rules that really bugged me, actually, not letting us hang out in eachother's rooms. I mean, I can see why, but if they coulda opened them up once a week or something that would have been better...We did have our student lounge in between the two dorms (called the "Upper Room") but it's just more comfortable when you're hanging out in your own living space, you know?
But then, my best friend lived off campus, so we all just went over there
Thanks for the messages, btw! made me smile!
