Simmer down, girls.

Don't try to convince your roommates the tub is not an emergency. They will get defensive and calmly lecture you (in anger), while implying you fail at life.
In my apartment we have two shower/tubs. One of them regurgitates water and starts to fill up the tub, so we have stopped using it, but I have noticed it only starts filling up when the other shower is being used. When nobody is using the other shower, the water level slowly drops. This morning we had three girls take showers, so the tub was filling up until it was only a few inches below the rim. All of my roommates were utterly freaking out, calling the emergency maintenance line so that it didn't overflow. I tried telling them that it wasn't quite an emergency. It would not overflow because none of us were taking any showers for the rest of the day. Then things turned ugly. Apparently even though the definition of "emergency" is if it will immediately cause damage to the apartment, this is still an emergency. We have a lot of girls with strong opinions living in this apartment, and they proceeded to tell me how dangerous it is and how it will probably overflow during church, despite that the water level has already gone down an inch. Silly girls. 

Don't go on a date to a comedy sports where the host might possibly ask everyone your section to name the last person you kissed. If you have not kissed your date yet, it will be awkward.

If you stay up until four AM to write a paper and have to get up at six, don't look up Chinese rappers like Wang Xiaolei for the whole two hours. Just go to sleep.
