We were the science and global change. It's Theo stories quote like dorms on Sam's a really close by everything. So I want to go to the diner. It's like a four minute walk to library closed by stamp. Everything is well, I noticed that you guys, like, have like a form Yeah, way across the way. Do you have the farm?

Flight is very harsh No. Yeah. I brought my own lights and makes it a little more roomy way. Don't have this light on. We'll just put on like the lions and stuff because the overhead lights of the rooms come with very harsh. It's really nice. Have any advice that you would give to, you know, incoming freshmen are, you know, just like any general activity advice that they probably taken a consideration whenever they wake up into the morning. So you don't think I would recommend the shower shoes because, yeah, the bathroom's while they're clean Day aren't the cleanest, So shower shoes are a must. Another just general room thing I would bring. It's just pictures and like stuff to decorate your you can see We have hung up a lot of pictures and stuff on, I guess, some general, just like living in a dorm kind of thing. I know it's cliche be like Leave your door open. You first come people come and say hi. That's how I made, like a majority of my friends. My first week here, he's left the door open. People came in and out. I mean, it helps that we're right next to the bathroom. So people went to the bathroom. I bombard them and say hello, but it was nice to get the door. Ten.

But I had so much fun showing you guys around showing you the beautiful University of Maryland. And I wish you the best of luck when picking what's what you want to go, Teo.

We're at Terrapin Row, which is an off campus apartment building. Well, it's actually three buildings, and they have a variety of apartments and townhouses. Right now I'm standing out in the courtyard where it's covered in snow, but they have grills TV. There's a volleyball court again, snowy. But these air, the apartment's up here. Um, it's a really nice option if you're looking for a place to live. If you want to move off campus after freshman or sophomore year, it's really, really nice. And a lot of my friends live here, and it's an actual apartment. You cook for yourself, you pay rent, you have a full year lease. So if you need to live here in the summer, this is a good place. There's a lot of other off campus apartments, but this is just one I want to show you. So let's go look at my friend lies his apartment. This is my friend Liza. Hi. And we're in her Terrapin roll apartment. So Liza, look, it was the tour. So we walk in. We have a nice stay living room, a big kitchen with lots of space. It's obviously not clean right now. Well, it's the authentic experience. Grams, this is mine. Okay, let's see. A big company. Bad dusk. And they actually really big deposits, too, which is nice. Lots of storage. Nice. Um, lots of clothes. And I share a bathroom with just one other person, but it's really big. The shower. Beautiful. Thank you. Is the rest Have this? It's not every mates room. We got these nice. And what else? It's just a really good living area. And they have a really nice pool, A good workout place. He's two floors below at should really go more. But what else is there? They free spray tans? I don't know why, but it's really nice. Um, and good study areas. A big courtyard, free coffee in the mornings, so I like living here. What's going on Prospective terms. If you were just now watching this, you have just gained access to one of the most exclusive tours of your entire life. I'm talking, of course, about the beloved, the most cherished, the most beautiful University of Maryland college part. My name is Alan Sheriff, A K. Allen of the Sheriff, and I'm a junior studying at the Smith School of Business for Business Management and Entrepreneurship. Now it's my second semester as a junior at the University of Maryland College Park. However, I take most of my classes off campus, but I still get to him. You down there from time to time because university is a shady Grove has a killer shuttle, and I get to say what's up to most of my path? I love making YouTube videos about innovation and creativity, which is exactly why I started pivoting Mohr towards content creation. Now you're going to want to hold on to your Talk to me about dorm essentials. Like what are things that people should bring that they may not think of? Definitely a lot of bin's way. Both have a ton of under bed storage space and definitely the risers for the bed. Yeah, we'll show them. So people have risers, bent outlets. So then you can store self under. Yeah. So, public storage bins under there? Wow, that's handy. Definitely. Extension cords. Oh, yeah. We have expression for fall everywhere because there's not that many outlets and you have when you look around like you're so much stuff too plebian, like printers and fans and fridge. So this door doesn't have a C, And right now it's called Soul Hands are away. But when we got here, it was like ninety degrees, seven going are the printer and the coffee machine necessary. You think or, like, Are there other places you can get? That depends on your habits. Like me. Some kind of guys, you know, have to. They do have actually ordered coffee at the dining hall. But sometimes, if I don't feel like leaving the room, it's nice to have coffee or tea and you could use it like if you have back inches or something like, you can heat up stuff for oatmeal, which is nice because you don't have to go into the lounge to do that printer. They do have places in like Sam on the library, where you can print changes way, have to pay for page. Where could you possibly live Freshman year and like, How is this one in comparison? So technically, honors house. So it's mostly if you're in the University honors Living Learning Program, you're in danger. So I mean, all the dorm buildings are relatively the same and my money and I want that in a couple of them, like no matter what community. And they're kind of the same. The Elton Community, which is where we are, is really nice because you do have the dining hall right here on the campus. Queen doesn't have their own dining hall suit to walk through this one, and the Denton community has two fifty one. But they're ours. Are as good as this on like they're only open till eight PM, so it's not really as convenient. And you could really, like, make the most your room, too, like it was definitely did not look like that. Then we move. Furniture was like, set up in a completely different way. Both of the beds were over here, Liam sticking out like this and it felt so small you can pay. I think it's like a hundred dollars to have your bed loft in and a That's something you're into that makes a lot of space because your death and your dresser on and like all of this space up, are there boys on your floor like, how is it mixed up? So most floors on him? Your sound? Actually, every floor in Hagerstown except for the floor that were on which is the fourth floor is split up. So when you go to the left of the elevator, it's all girls with the girl. Aren't. I am eager to the right. It's all boys with We're all right. But our floor is completely mixed. So, like, try room is like girl, boy, girl, boy. They also do have entire gender floors. I think Hagerstown there's just by wing. But some buildings have for is that you can You can also say, like your preferences. Like if you really do not want to live on a floor by gender like ours is what it's like. Every room you can put, like you fill out a questionnaire at the beginning of the year saying Like what? You'd be comfortable with us. Thank you. Tellers, Roomie. We did. But not everyone does that. A lot of people on our floor random. They have a community living agreement that you're supposed to fill out when you get here. Basically, like outlining what you're gonna do if any problem arises. And then if there is a situation, you must refer back to the agreement that you signed, and that does help with a lot of your roommate disputes. So now we're in the study lounge, which is a great place where students hang out and get work done, or they'll just talk into each oth other. So right now I am in the middle of a bunch of people actually trying to do work, but yes, Good morning. So just woke up. Still very tired. But I'll run through my morning routine with you guys. I actually don't have class until two. Today. I'm pretty late schedule, but yeah. So this morning Oh, soo's like I drag myself outta bed. I'll probably I'll get in the shower. I usually shove her in the mornings. And then, um, after game dress, they go to the dining hall grab like, bull serial. Um, and then we'll get some work done today before class. And, yeah, pretty boring morning schedule. But I remained. I will usually jam to music or something just to get our day started. So, yeah, I I always love starting the day off with music. So I feel like that's if you and your roommate have the same taste in music, I highly recommend doing that. Get yourself jazz and ready for the
