Flyer News: What should we know about all of you?
Courtney Heinekamp: Five of us have lived together in some way or another since freshman year, starting in Founders 4 South. And then we lived in 225 Irving last year, and Tori came along at the last minute, and that's how we're here.
FN: Any house traditions?
Nicky Hanus: Well, we have breakfast together every Monday.
Renee Beach: We've only had one Monday!
NH: Well, I'd like that to continue.
FN: What's your porch used for?
All but Tori Oelschlager: Beer pong!
NH: Except for Tori. And people watching ... Watching people parallel park.
CH: And fail. I think I've only seen one out of six people get it.
NH: That sounds about my ratio.
FN: What's been your most memorable moment here?
Amy Hatfield: Gotta be the Invasion of the Unknown Freshman.
TO: There was this freshman who had, like, 600 questions. And finally, she [CH] comes in the room and asks me to come out into the yard, to get away from this girl.
FN: So, who's Boo Kitty?
[RB grabs Boo Kitty, a stuffed cat who's seen better days]
NH: We found him at Big Lots freshman year, and he's been through quite a lot since then.
Eileen Kennedy: He's good to scare freshman away with.
RB: Good way to clear out a party.
[RB tries to balance Boo Kitty on a jar. He keeps falling over.]
CH: Let's talk about his missing leg.
NH: Missing leg? Let's talk about his tail, or his no jaw?
FN: So ... that hole in the ceiling...
EK: That just came today. [Maintenance] came to carve it out.
CH: They said something was leaking.
NH: There were like four visits in one day. They just kinda left. I was sitting there, eating chips and salsa while it happened.
CH: She was watching them.
TO: "Excuse me, I think you're doing it wrong."
NH: I'm kinda scared though, like if the shower came through the floor.
EK: Maybe we can put a curtain around it.
FN: Any house rules?
AH: Well, we have a chore chart that we take pretty seriously.
CH: We just updated it today.
TO: And besides that, some of us have to get up early, or go to bed early, so we respect that, like not bringing the whole neighborhood over. And I'm on a dry season, so I'm not playing any beer pong.
FN: How about the polar bear poster, or the seal one?
NH: Oh. Those are Thaddeus [the polar bear] and Clancy [the seal].
TO: I feel like Clancy's looking into my soul.
RB: And judging you.
CH: Don't look directly into his eyes!
FN: What would you call yourself?
TO: The six best friends that anyone could have ... Come on, you've seen "The Hangover," right?
FN: Which one's Alan?
All but NH: Nicky!
