Random hook-ups

Haha. Oh man, high schoolers.

This is college. Sex, from what I've gathered from various brochures and posters, occurs.

Whether you want to skank it up in a carman shower or right across from the library with open windows while people comment live on your facebook page...that is your prerogative.

Keep in mind; a lot of the population here is horny and alone (Exhibit A: bored@butler). So how much you get laid really depends on you, what you're looking for, and your standards- if standards you do have. Cute Milanos Market clerk was my only hookup. (damn I miss their food now). A steady girlfriend is my new MO, personally.

SEAS is so mixed in with CC that there's really no such thing as "at SEAS." Unless you're referring to that booze cruise thing a lot of people sign up for, in which case I'd imagine a lot of random hookups do occur at sea. But yeah, part of the randomness of random hookups is the fact that the person can be from CC, SEAS, Barn(y)ard, or any one of various undergraduate institutions in NYC.

i was more of a long term committed relationship type of person

i've dated a girl from all three schools (CC, SEAS, Barnard) and i would say that dating a SEAS girl was not a good idea

....sorry for sounding too much like denzera there, talking about my love life and all

I currently live with a SEAS girl (As well as two other people). She was raised in a family as the 2nd of 4 girls, and was treated as the boy of the family. She loves her job as a structural engineer - she helps create big buildings, and clearly never outgrew legos. She handles power tools better than I do, carries on conversations about kitchen cabinets or PVC pipe, and can be 100% counted on to keep cool in a crisis or take on responsibility. She's also cute, cooks a mean casserole, and will clean the bathroom without being asked.

Some guys just want the girly side of a girl without having their masculinity challenged by a girl also being competent at "guy stuff".

Personally, I find it goddamn useful to have around. A low maintenance girl makes for a happier household. But not everyone feels that way.

Was she polycephalic?

*grin* her boyfriend is something of a rock star, actually.

when she shaves her head and buys a motorcycle, then i'll start to worry.

seconded :-P

yes, there are the boyish SEAS girls but there are also the ones who are extremely busy, way too competitive and socially awkward...that was my experience
