Defying Gravity

So because my floor is part of a Living-Learning Community (LLC), my decorations and boards pretty much had to follow a predetermined theme. The theme for this year was “Defy Gravity.” I was quite pleased to hear about this theme because it left a lot of room for me to improvise, as the theme could be interpreted in different ways. 

When I was interpreting the theme, I thought of many different things that defied gravity (like rockets, balloons, airplanes, etc.) and how I would represent them. I ended up choosing this hot-air balloon theme for my board/wall display which is the first thing you would see if you got off the elevator on my floor. 

It is very simple, and I am able to post other signs and posters to it because I left a lot of space in the “sky.” The only thing I found difficult about this board was actually getting it up because, as you can see in the photo, the board stretches from the floor all the way to the ceiling. I am not a very tall person, so I actually had to get a step ladder to help me reach the top to staple the paper! I’m sure it would have been a funny sight to see me struggle to get this board up; I practically had to defy gravity myself to do it!

My common room is quiet. Too quiet.

One of the struggles I've had being an RA are the lockout. I mean the 3 am ones where I'm not the on call RA. My bra is already off I'm not putting it back on. Sorry I'm not sorry

I can't believe it's only 9:30 pm... I have rounds at 1am. That's another 3 and half hours before I get to walk around campus. I just want to sleep!

Today I was sitting with a fellow RA at the dining hall for breakfast and he started digging in his backpack for something. After a moment he paused, sat up, stared off, and said, ". . . Antwone, you're tired."

He was searching his backpack for a fork.
