It was move in day for first year students, Gillian’s allocated time was between 12-4 pm. It’s a lot different than 28 years ago when Lori and Dale dropped me off on Labour Day monday. You drive right up to the residence, all the belongings have to be labelled with name, residence and room number. You get out and they have student reps carry everything up to your room. Gillian and Susan went to get her key while Angela and I parked the car. Angela wouldn’t get out of the car with all the crazy students swarming it. Gillian is in a double room in Brandon Hall, it was an all girl residence when I attended, but like almost all of the residences now, it is co-ed.

Gillian all unpacked, kind of, she’ll need to go through what we unpacked for her and sort it out for herself.

Her room is at the end of a corridor and has a view of  the forest. The rooms have a wired internet jack, as well as wifi.
