Profile: Rooming Block #1 out of 375

By Maika R. Pollack

Unfortunately, a picture of Hillary N. Stevens was not in the Freshman Facebook

How do you feel about being possibly the last "first" blocking group? We did it by not trying. That is our motto. If you try hard, it messes things up.

Have you ever been lucky people before?

Scott: I won a game of bingo an a cruise ship.

Amy: I've never been lucky before, no.

Jen: Shoshona met Harrison Ford once.

What will you do with the paper that has your lottery number on it? We're going to recycle it.

No plans for celebration? We may get those little 'we're #1' golf visors made up.

How did you choose your four houses? Lowell and Winthrop were the first two. Then we drew out of a hat.

Scott: If we had gotten into Quincy, I would have shot everyone in the block.

Jim: That was a big bone of contention. It was our quadbuster.

Scott: If we had got number one but got into Quincy, no one would ever know that we were number one. I wouldn't have said.

What do you like about Winthrop?

Amy: Baby corn in the salad bar.

Jim: Cool library.

What would you change? It needs pineapple juice and Cocoa Krispies.

What will we hear blasting from your windows over the Winthrop Yard?

Scott and Dave: Beethoven.

Jim: Buddy Holly.

Amy: Brahms.

Jen: Billy Joel.

Anything that begins with "B"? Yeah.

Word Association and Random Questions:

Freshman Formal: Ewwww....

OJ: Pineapple's better.

OJ Simpson: Pineapple's better.

The Yard: Home.

Randomization: Not us!

Winthrop: Rocks!

Science Center: Movie Theater.

Han Solo or Luke Skywalker? Han Solo!!!

Winnie from "The Wonder Years" or Punky Brewster now? Winnie, though Punky is kind of busty.

Favorite Dwarf? Sleepy.

Savory Baked Tofu? Underrated...much like David Hasselhoff.

Do you really think David Hasselhoff is underrated? Yes--first he was surrounded by KIT, then by Baywatch women....No one ever appreciates his acting ability.

What's the coolest House t-shirt? Cabot: Where a fish needs a bicycle.

Jordan vs. Tony the Tiger? Jordan's played against cartoon characters before--he beat Bugs Bunny in the commercial. He beat the Marrian. If you beat the Martian dude, you are the best player. Tony's no problem.

What do you think of randomization? We think it's Draconian. [Laughter]
