I was coming home from my day of classes and engineering meetings when I saw one of my friends sitting alone in one of our floor "classrooms." I entered the room and listened intimately as he talked about his bad week and rough time of his life. Soon after we had begun talking, one of our floor friends entered the room as well only to complain of a judgmental friend and vacuuming her messy room.
Long story short (this is the funny part of the story), us three decided to make my girlfriend's lofted bed lower so she wasn't so close to the ceiling. Well, here we are, three weak college students trying and trying to unhook the loft kit. We grunted and struggled and moved things and complained and laughed that we couldn't make the bed move.
Eventually, my girlfriend and I went to the boy's side of our floor and found four very promising guys to help us with the bed. A half hour and a small hammer later we ended up lowering my friend's bed. But it didn't come so easy. The bed frame threatened to break apart on us several times and many of the guys almost wet their pants as a result.
Oh, and might I mention, these same guys were the same guys who helped fixed our window in our room when the top frame fell down and stuck itself in an awkward position. We have a lot to be thankful for these boys. :)
That was my funniness of the day. I must tell you, spending awkward moments with friends is the best time to spend with the ones you like. It brings you closer together and less afraid of your surroundings. This was a great way to spend my evening.
You girls were smart - my sister and her college roommate decided one day to move their loft beds around too . . . to make a long story short, the bed collapsed to the ground, with my sister on top . . .pinning her roommate underneath! Her roommate broke her leg and had to have surgery. Great way to start Freshman year. :)
