Helpful Hint #1

So, I just recently arrived back home from my brother's wedding. Had some homework for my online class due by midnight and worked on that for a bit. My roommate informs me that her bathroom is wet on the floor, so I go into check mine. Well, I set foot on my floor and immediately slip and fall half-way, banging my hip into the door. If you can picture it, a nice sheet of water is spreading across the floor. Now, we called maintenance, but they got there after we had fixed it. However, he said that he was impressed since most people would have just watched the flooding go on.
The worst part of the matter was, what to do with the water on the floor? We did not have a mop. And maybe one crappy towel. Not enough. So my tip to everyone out there, even if you do not think you will ever need it, is to have a mop on hand. Even if you never use it, it is always better to have one than to be without it, as we have learned this lovely evening. (And even more important than the mop is a plunger. Now that is just detrimental to your health to be without.)
Oh adventure...
