<p>I don’t think we were there at the same time if your last quarter was Spring 2009. Interesting, though. All this time I’ve read your posts, I never knew you were a former ISRCer. :)</p>
<p>And yes, in my experience, the music room is usually open. I think sometimes right after coming back from a break, it’s a while before someone gets around to opening it, but it’s been open almost every time I’ve wanted to use it. I wish I’d been warned about the couch, though. :/</p>
<p>@Pizzagirl: I forgot to mention it in my post above and now it’s too late to edit, but another thing ISRC does in keeping with the international theme is socials with the fellows. There are a couple every quarter, and usually the theme of the social is a specific country or region, and residents decorate the windows of the main lounge according to the theme, food is bought or made that is from the country in question, and some type of entertainment loosely relevant to the country is also provided. It’s not very educational, per se (as in you won’t necessarily learn a lot about foreign countries this way), but it IS lots of fun. I had also never tried Indian food before the Indian social last year, so it can be educational in that sense, lol.</p>
