<p>cell phone most necessary… verizon has the best service. laptop recommended over desktop so you can take it elsewhere if necessary. printer also recommended. </p>

<p>i have a fridge, tv, dvd player, and gamecube in my room, but theyre all luxeries. the fridge is useful. i wish i picked up a microwave or microfridge, but i just use a friend’s microwave instead. </p>

<p>desk lamps are also popular.</p>

22

<p>Instead of getting a printer for yourself, I would recommend sharing a printer with your roommate, which is what I’ve been doing this year and last year too. I also get free printing in Boelter Hall, though, as a registered member of ESUC. :)</p>

23

<p>whats ESUC?? oh and yes, sharing is caring. work out waht to bring with ur roommate(s). share the cost of the ink lol.</p>

24

<p>Flopsy, whats ESUC? Is this available to all students.</p>

25

<p>Do we feed a fan or something for the summer in the res halls (No ACs).
My mom is telling me to take a fan??!!
Will I need one, she is afraid that i would melt or something.</p>

26

<p>nah fan’s not really necessary. its hottest in the summer, so if you actually plan on living during summer session, then get a preview during orientation, since orientation takes place in the summer too. </p>

<p>oh yea share things with your roommates. for example, i brought the fridge, another roommate brought the tv, and the third brought the gamecube and dvd player.</p>

27

<p>ESUC = Engineering Society of UCLA</p>

28

<p>do we have to apply to get into ESUC or are all Eng. majors in automatically</p>

29

<p>You have to be an engineer, register and pay the registration fee…

32

<p>Can we hire a laptop?
If yes. From where? How much? r they of any help? Or is it better to simply buy one?</p>

<p>I’ve decided to get atleast a TV, and maybe a PS.
What r u guys planning to bring?</p>

33

<p>if you mean rent a laptop - yes you can do that, for free, from UCLA CLICC lab in Powell. They have wireless connections and such, but you can only rent them for a certain period of time.</p>

34

<p>i heard its only 4 hours… which isnt a lot of time</p>

35

<p>4 hours? what can we do in 4 hours?
But, its better than nothing</p>

36

<p>are there any rules we should know when bringing a microfridge in the dorms? Like is there a specific wattage the microfridge is required to follow?</p>

<p>Plus there’s the Nintendo revolution. Just saw the fake video which was supposedly made by some crazy nintendo fanboy. Whoa, amazing.</p>
