Picking a House

People have advised me not to pick houses based on your friends. But what about your enemies? There is one person I particularly can't stand (to the point where the person and I can't be in the same room together), and I have reason to believe we might independently pick the same house.

Rotation hasn't even started. You might think that you know about the houses, but you don't. That said, I wouldn't base your decision on only one person.

It is a very bad idea to pick against a house because of one single person.

Living with such a small group of people, conflicts are bound to happen. More than likely, after 4 years there will be at least one person in your house you can't stand to be around. I can think of a person who spends a good amount of time in my house who I can't stand to be in the same room with. However, I would never give up the rest of the friends I've made in the house to leave a house into which I otherwise fit so well.

Long story short -- what G2sus... said.

It depends. South House = Hovse, North House = House.

Avery is probably House, but who cares?

And since I live in a North House, my spelling was correct.

No, it's not Ben. I mean, I can't stand him, but he's not that bad.

Fine, we might as well tell everyone the truth. It's me.
