Foul odor invades bath

Since when does water smell like rotten eggs? Apparently it does since I moved into House 3.

Can you imagine trying to brush your teeth with your minty fresh toothpaste and gagging, not because of the toothbrush in the back of your mouth, but because the water smells so bad?

l never had problems with dry skin, but here, I find myself moisturizing several times a day. Others say their skin isn't as clear when they're here at school. Maybe it's stress, but l highly doubt it.

There are times when the water pressure is so low, I can't even wash my hands. If someone else has the water running, or someone is doing laundry, the pressure goes down, and it's not even worth it to use it. And believe me, living in a house fulJ of girls, there is almost always laundry being done.

Every morning I dread taking a shower because I feel like I am bathing in a waterfall of sulfur and sewage. I might as well go outside with my soap and shampoo when it rains; I would probably have the same feeling anyway.

If that's not bad enough, I can't even take a decent shower here. Every time I tum the water on, the temperature is fine, but as soon as I step in, I practically get third degree burns. So. I try to reach the knob, even though the water is in the process of burning my skin off, and I finally do, and tum it. Now I feel like I am stuck naked in the Arctic Ocean.There is no happy medium in this shower. It's either scaldingor freezing.

So you don't think there could possibly be anything more I could complain about with regards to the shower, right? Wrong. When, at that very rare, opportune one would come. Then they would all be drunk and out of control, maybe then we would get some school spirit. How's that for an idea.

The students that are there though are always at all the events. The same people go to these things. I must admit I do not go to every activity, but I try and go to some. The main reason I don't go to them all is because I know nobody is going to be there. It is kind of pointless to go if you. and the janitor are the only ones that are going to be there. It's just no fun unless there's a large crowd, which is hardly ever present at Cabrini, even on the weekends. There are more people at Taco Bell on a Friday night than there is on the Cabrini campus.

One last thing that I noticed about Cabrini is that a lot of people on campus have "too cool" syndrome. People think they are too cool to do things. Partying and getting wasted are not the only way to be cool, people. We are not in high school anymore. People are like "Dude, I'm not going to see no stupid hypnotist, that's for dorks, man. How about we fill up a book bag with beer and just walk around campus instead?" moment the water is actually warm, I get so excited and suddenly the temperature drastically changes again.It's awful.

There is nothing wrong with having fun and partying; I do it myself. I would just like to see more people cheering when I go to a basketball game. It is no fun by yourself. Maybe I'll go see a singer perform if it is not just me and those who set it up present. I just think people take Cabrini as a joke.

The more people keep blowing off activities and what not is only going to make Cabrini worse. You think the student count is low? Not, unless students open their eyes and try and get involved, then the count will continue to drop. People will just be like, "This school sucks!" And with this attitude let's see how Cabrini is in four or five years from now.

I have talked to facilities twice, once last semester and once this semester,but apparently there are more important things. I understanda shattered window is more imperative,but there was nothinglike that last semester,so what exactly is the bold up?

All I hopefor is thatsomeone reads this and takes care of the problemas soon as all the bigger damagesarerepaired.

Thisdoesnot happenin a normal house,so it shouldnot happen here. I know everyonesays this,butwe paya lot of moneyto live hereandI thinkit'sonly fair that our water situation is improved,if not perfected Until then,I will continuetakingshowers at 4 a.m. whenthe laundry finallygoes in the dryer.
