“Last year my buddies and I had an apartment in Rooney facing the walkway to the Carey Center. We created this game and the concept of it was to embarrass each other in front of fellow classmates. Whenever we would see a friend walking on the path back from class, we would scream ridiculous stuff out of our window in an effort to embarrass them. I'll never forget one day I was walking back from class minding my business, until I heard my roommate Brendan shout out ‘Hey Tim, how’s that rash?!’ My face instantly got beet red as I turned around and saw a bunch of students smiling walking behind me on the path. I didn't think I could get more embarrassed ... but I did as he relentlessly kept screaming, ‘Did you pick up that cream yet? I'm sure it will work, man!’ That may have been the longest walk back to Rooney of my life, but every time I think about it, I can’t help but smile. As strange as it sounds, those are the moments I will miss the most.”
