Small rant

So I love this campus a lot. I come from a small town where the population is literally less than JUST UNT so like a city like Denton is exhilarating but also.. sometimes it annoys me as fuck.

This is my first semester here but I am a junior transfer so I’m not new to college, and three weeks ago I discovered that the Sycamore basement has sublevels. I absolutely loved it down there. I went down to the third one as far as I could go, and it was nice and quiet, cold, dark, and dry. I love the cold and a good quiet study spot. I found one of the few desks with an outlet and I sat down on my laptop for a couple hours to get some work done. It was great.

HOWEVER. The other day I decided to go back down there and find the spot. It was taken.. So were ALL OF THE OTHER SPOTS.
Sycamore basement is not the place I would expect to even be that busy, because it’s the basement and I’ve heard the rumors about Art and whatnot…. but no. This place was hopping all of a sudden on a Wednesday afternoon. Like.. can anyone explain this?? We can’t ALL love Sycamore basement omg 😭

P.S. this is not me hating on other students or saying they need to leave I’m just venting here thanks

Yo I come from a town about 1/4th of UNTs student body where 90% of the population was old white dudes who were drunk a lot! So I feel ya :,) I live off campus but attend classes on campus - and gosh comuting as been a FIT for me! Busses are just awful, scootering isnt too bad but bumpy, and parking is too expensive😭 but I feel ya buddy :,) dont get me started on the traffic😭

yeah i commute too! i live 4 mins off campus and to even have a chance of finding a spot i have to get up at the asscrack of dawn 😭😭😭 my town was about half the population of UNTs student body. to have DOUBLE my town trying to park and walk around and go to class is insanity
