Asking Harvard Students for a Dorm Tour

can we have a dorm tour oh actually yeah thank you for doing this what is your name and what he's doing at Harvard my name is Xander I think I'm going to concentrate in sociology and film my name is kashish and I'm thinking of studying history and literature my name is Khalid Abdul and I'm going to a life science I'm a pre-med track my name is for short and I'm studying psych maybe it's Tori Ruffin and I'm most likely going to study sociology with a secondary in econ I'm Elena and I'm studying classical language Helen and I'm studying Neuroscience I'm Thomas and I'm studying economics I'm Caroline and anyone concentrating gov gov cool how do you like the dorm life at Harvard you know I had a lot higher expectations for it considering you know highest Endowment in the country we can't even afford AC oh yeah accommodations it's nice there's there was no AC so the beginning was rough we have like the fans in the windows okay I think people expect like Harvard the dorms are going to be super nice but they aren't all of them are very old most of the dorms have burnt down multiple times before they don't have AC like the first two weeks that we were here it was terrible dorm life is super nice really yes I live in a suite with one other person and we both have our own bedrooms and we have like a really big common room upperclassmen housing is a significant upgrade because you get better rooms I really like the community in the houses how many people do you live with I only have one roommate right now we both have singles so it's really nice oh wow yeah what do you think is the best part about your dorm room elevator wow elevator your hardwood floors is it wait if I say the people no that's fine you can see the people yeah I think it is the people I've met some of my best friends in my dorm so it's nice I think it's in a really good location also just more space in sweet bathroom I love it it's close it's got a good location I can wake up at 8 50 go to my 9 A.M I've gotten into people watching recently and it's really nice just to see the pedestrians the first week some of them even saw me change so we're very close yeah my friend is in Weld and they get people like that come up to like the windows and stuff like people take pictures outside by their door oh it's like it's awkward yeah it's a tourist attraction here there's so many people and none of them are students what's the worst thing about your dorm it's so it's so interesting living there especially on the first floor because that's where everybody kind of like walks and one of our blinds doesn't close so everybody walking on Mass Ave can see in and out of our dorm at any time of day it's very beautiful and we are also in the entryway that got broken into last year and me and my roommate have four fans going on in our room day and night like constantly because it gets so hot in wig but no it's cool it's it's so great wonderful we have five people living in a three bed kind of arrangement it's pretty nice actually I feel like I got more space than these guys but my cabinets don't actually work and the bedroom next to me is not as nice I think Harvard really likes like roommate conflict like I'm really like with my roommates but yeah Harvard just knows that like hey these don't forms are not equal and good luck like just figure it out yourself the one thing is that the building has five floors and we don't have an elevator but I live on the second floor so I'm fine no AC no AC yeah oh yeah it's not my own accommodation what accommodation do you need I walked into a room and it's like a fridge sometimes I wake up and I'm a little too cold terrible do you have roommates my roommate is so nice her name is shanasa I'm really really shocked by how our schedules just like work perfect it was a random assignment so actually we had to write these essays before we got here wow and still like answer all these questions about like your favorite genres of music and like exactly what time you get up in the morning and then they take all of it into account and I think what I normally hear is people are either really really happy with their roommate assignments or they're like pretty satisfied with it which I think is a win that's awesome um they're all very nice but I have five dates and I feel like that's that's a little too many for my taste I love them Harvest a very good job apparently people they're all musicians yeah they pair the musicians together there's like music they put the stoppers together yeah no literally don't just say they put the fappers together oh yeah oh sorry yeah you guys are from Harvard what does that mean so fap stands for first year arts program it's so insane though they go we all fact together real fasting especially the acting like the dancing our hands got really tired from all the fappings cheese guys last question can we have a dorm tour oh actually yeah oh yeah of course I mean I can't I was actually gonna offer that I'm like a quick phone call I'll give you some time to think I'll be here all day my roommates are two of them are fully knocked in my dorm right now I'm gonna say no because things are not tidy okay there's like this YouTuber who wants to fill my room yeah it's fine I won't bring them in wait what was the answer oh she's at office hours we can go we can go yeah yeah I mean unless my roommates there but I think she'll be happy to be in the video okay let's do it okay we're not gonna show where you live but we're gonna cut to there oh oh it is Big whoa it has like a steak [Music] Escape thinking of getting some sort of mattress topper yeah to make it like comfy this is her roommates this is nice it's small but make use of the space got the fireplace here yeah

we all share it how's that um some mornings you have to like wait and it's like oh I'm gonna be late I like that the bedroom is separate from the work room because in my past dorms it was all in the
