Yes.

I WAS going to make it a "Going to school for free appreciation post," but it would have given Tayvin a seizure.

Dear Mr. Nyugen:

It gives me a great deal of pleasure to officially notify you of your selection as a Resident Coordinator for the Suites and Apartments Area for the 2004-2005 academic year and to welcome you into the Resident Staff Program. Your selection is evidence of your leadership ability and concern for the interests and welfare of both the University and its students. I am sure that you will merit the confidence placed in you.

They spelled my name wrong :(

[Snapp]

Congrats!!!

[Bobmuhthol]

You got served.

Weedmage spelled my name wrong. I feel j00r painz. :(

[Sean]

Hahahaha we all know you are gonna have to worst residents ever. Have fun dealing with all the underage drinking and parties.

[Edaarin]

Heh...the dorm that I got is about 3 miles from Central Grounds. Ugh. It's literally the place that you don't want to be assigned first year...I'm hoping that I get assigned to a hall of Engineering students whose idea of a great night is winning a game of Halo or something.

EDIT: You'd be surprised how many times I get asked that when I'm around drunk people...no, I'm not. But that guy's my idol, he's the only Viet guy I know who has a restaurant named after him.

It's called, "Who Dat."

Any relation to Dat Nguyen? :smilegrin:

[HarmNone]

Wow, Edaarin! That is awesome! Congratulations, and do not feel too bad. Americans simply cannot grasp that a "g" can follow an "n". ;)

[Hulkein]

I can :!: :thumbsup:

[Ambrosia]

Congratulations, you're now a babysitter for a bunch of 18-22 year olds. :P Just kidding, I hope you get the hall you want.

Edited for spelling.

Go you. Hope you don't get the CRAZY PARTY KIDZZZZ hall.

[Edaarin]

Anyway, thanks everyone!

It's mostly a first year dorm, there's a handful of suites there (I think Malone and Norris which are some of the building names) are for upperclassmen. Man, looking back at my first year I'm embaressed at the stupid questions I asked my RA the first week. So many of them concerning alcohol.

And half a year from now, I get to field those stupid questions. :) Chances are I'll get a first year hall, so it'll be around fifteen to twenty 17-19 year old guys I'll be babysitting.

I'm taking bets on how many 18 year olds show up drunk to your 1st floor meeting and ask a lot of stupid questions while trying to pretend like they aren't drunk and or high.

[Artha]

Over/Under, Tijay, or closest-without-going-over?

[Sean]

Closest without going over. I'll also need a count of total students on your floor at your earliest convience Ed.

[crazymage]

Dats a very good line backer for Dallas!

[DeV]

Congrats Edaarin... and good luck babysitting. Should be a fun experience either way.

[Suppa Hobbit Mage]

Hehe, congrats. I was a Resident Assistant in college myself :)

[Parkbandit]

It was bad when I was an RA... but that was back in the day when the drinking age was only 19... and drinking at college was an expectation.

God help you Edaarin.

[Edaarin]

Drinking IS an expectation here...

Look up the word Wahoo sometime. It's a reason it's our unofficial mascot :)

[Ardwen]

SO which school is that? I have a few cousins that need a dorm ta ruin this year

ROFLMAO! I thought my bro's friend had the funniest restaurant name ever. It's a Thai restaurant in Charlotte/Greensboro named, "Sticky Rice". I died when we pulled up in the parking lot. My comment was, "Oh hell nahhhhhhh, are you fo' real?"

P.S. Congrats Vinh! I hope you they give you hell. :D
