Hungry College Student


Rarr. My roommate's parents are coming into town again. I love Chelsea's parents! They're dropping off Chelsea's school ring that came into the mail and then going out to eat. So on top of liking Chelsea's parent's I also love food, and I dunno I'd really like to go out to eat with them. Perhaps this post will come off the wrong way, but it's more light-hearted than serious. But most times when my parents have come into South Bend they treat Chelsea and my boyfriend to dinner. So me, being the very silly roommate, has been making several comments like, "Oh, so where do ya want to eat, roommate?" She replies, "I think Panara." "Hmm. Nah... you don't want to go there. You should go to some place like Red Lobster. Then you could get TWO orders of crab legs. Eat one and then say, "Shoot. I'm too full. I think I'm going to bring these back to my roommate."' Naturally, she laughs and says, "I don't like crab legs. What about a lobster tail?" I said, "Well... you could go back and forth with ordering a lobster tail and crab legs so that you confuse the waiter and get BOTH... and then bring the crab legs back to your roommate of course!" She didn't bite the hook. : ( Of course I wouldn't expect to go to Red Lobster, but it'd be nice to be invited to go out with them one time, because never have I been invited to go eat with them over the past two years of being her roommate. (And they've come to South Bend plenty of times, because they only live one hour away.) Maybe she just isn't getting my obvious hints?! No. She has close to a 4.0 GPA. I know money isn't an issue for them because her dad's salary is in the three digits. Besides, it'd be nice to be invited and I'd even pay my way! I know they like me, because Chelsea has passed along comments her mom has said like, "Oh I just love Sara! I'm so glad she's your roommate!" So I don't know. I don't want to invite myself because that's rude. I'm just saying it would be nice for her to invite me. That's all. That and I'm hungry. Do other people's roommates invite them out to dinner when their parents come into town? Rarr. Dining hall food for me. Again. -Post submitted by Sara's growling stomach
