    3. People having sex in the bunk above/below you.

    4. Seeing the guy/girl you hooked up with last night hooking up with someone else tonight.

    5. Going to sleep at night and waking up with a whole new set of roommates in the morning.

    6. Getting drunk and hooking up with someone and then being way too embarrassed to talk to them the next day.

    7. Relying on a ceiling fan to keep 10 people cool during a 30 degree night.
