Welcome to The C-Side Chronicles! This blog's creation was borne out of a desire to transcribe the insanity that has been a constant source of entertainment during my time at Purchase College. Oh, and also its an assignment from my Viral Marketing professor ;-). Hmm, where to begin. Well, when I moved into SUNY Purchase on my first day at school, I was placed on the Conservatory floor. The Conservatory floor which is the 3rd floor of C-side (hence the title!) in the Crossroads building is made up of various artists from all three conservatories located on campus: the theatre arts conservatory, the dance conservatory, and the music conservatory. Being a Studio Composition student myself, I applied to be placed on this floor as I thought I would enjoy being surrounded by like-minded people who loved their art as much as I do. It was definitely one of the best decisions I've ever made. The people who live on this floor are a wonderful, creative group of people who are so much fun to hang out with. They are also certifiable, but I have found the the best people usually are.
Due to an overflow of girls to boys, my room (which is me and my two roommates, Jess and Sarah) was placed on the boys half of the hallway. This has also been a stroke of good luck as they are some of the nicest guys I have ever had the fortune to meet. But this has had the accompanying hazard of being roped into whatever kookiness the boys have cooked up. And they have cooked up a lot...and we're only halfway through the year, haha. So, when I was told to write a blog and I was struggling for something to write about, my roommate suggested I write about the floor saying "You'll definitely have enough material." And I realized, she was right. Plus, it has the added benefit of me not forgetting anything that has happened. And believe me, this has been an experience I want to remember.
So fasten your seatbelt and welcome to the madness!
