The Women of 414 Kiefaber
By: Janine Costello – Porch Correspondent
FN: How did you all meet each other?
Megan Schone: It was freshman year.
Brie Sandrige: Well, freshman year, Megan wouldn’t talk to me and I had to log into her Facebook and accept my own friend request.
Kaitlyn Richards: Brie and I stayed in the same hotel for move-in weekend freshman year, and she was really dressed up to go out to dinner with her parents. I remember this because I thought she was wearing fake eyelashes, and I was so nervous that all the girls at UD would be the type to wear fake eye lashes when hanging out with their parents. Not the best first impression…
BS: OK, but by the way, my eye lashes aren’t fake!
Maggie Quinn: Megan and I roomed together freshman year.
KR: Ellen and I went to high school together.
Kathleen Tabb: Maddy and I went to high school together also.
Alex Migley: Maggie and I roomed together freshman year.
BS: So, we’ve all known each other for a while now.
Lauren Gunn: Wait! What about me?
Kelly Collins: Lauren… we met you freshman year when you were wearing a duct tape Natty Light Halloween costume.
MS: Can we please attach a picture of that?
LG: No!
KC: I think my hair is graying.
FN: If you had to give everyone in your house a superlative, what would it be?
All: Yes, we do these all the time!
MS: Brie is Most Over-Rated Human.
BS: Megan is Most Likely to Not Finish Her Sentences.
ALL: Kelly Collins is Flirtiest!
BS: Maddy is the Biggest Tease.
Ellen Grichocinski: Kathleen is Most Gluten Free.
KT: Hey guys, it’s 6 p.m. on a Friday and I’m still gluten free!
LG: Kaitlyn is Most Masculine or Biggest Boy.
KR: Ellen is the Best Mom.
EG: I don’t like being called a mom!
KR: Well, you don’t get to pick your superlative.
MQ: Alex is Most Fit.
AM: Most fit?
BS: Yeah, no, Alex is Most Likely to be Eating Popcorn.
MW: Maggie is Maggie “Plus One” Quinn.
BS: Always a bridesmaid, never a bride!
LG: Uh, girls! Still don’t have one…
EG: Lauren’s the spiciest!
BS: We hate to tell you this, but you are everyone’s favorite roommate.
ALL: Very true.
FN: If you were to be visiting for your 10-year reunion, what would everyone be up to?
KT: Everyone would be drunk.
KC: I can promise you, none of us would be married or in a relationship.
MS: Except for Lauren! She would be married and would be the first to have a baby.
KT: Lauren would be having her baby, and we would all be in the delivery room in Miami Valley.
BS: Wait, can we change the question to, “If Lauren was having a baby in eight years, what would we all be doing in the delivery room?”
KT: Yeah, I still think we would all be drunk… the B.A.C.’s are not doing too hot.
BS: Auntie Brie would not be paying attention whatsoever.
EG: Kathleen would be taking DLM orders… aka Dorothy Lane Market orders. It’s her favorite place.
MW: Maggie would be the nice one holding her hand.
BS: But Maggie would also have a plus one chilling in the waiting room.
LG: Ellen would be pacing the room in tears.
EG: That is very correct. Brie is still not paying attention to the situation at all.
MQ: Megan would be the most awkward human in the situation.
MS: And Maddy would probably just faint.
EG: Kelly is going to be putting holy water on her forehead.
BS: Kaitlyn just got a Wendy’s 4-for-4 and isn’t there—she’s watching the game.
KR: Ugh and I’d probably be wearing basketball shorts.
LG: Kaitlyn would walk in to the delivery room saying, “Sorry I’m late guys. The game was on.”
FN: Is there any advice you want to give to first-years?
KT: Please don’t come to our house and drink. We will get in trouble.
BS: But like, come to our house. It’s fun. Also, get good grades now because you’ll regret it later if you don’t.
KC: Study abroad!
KR: Go to the gym.
LS: Definitely stay skinny for as long as you can.
BS: Never have meal plan money left over on your card.
KT: Take classes with all of your friends.
MQ: Love the ones you’re with.
All: Typical Maggie quote.
BS: Get a boyfriend if you can. And go to a lot of themed parties, so you aren’t forced to actually look cute all the time.
LS: But if you do go to a themed party, don’t dress as a Natty Light can.
MS: Do not steal signs from houses because you will end up breaking your nose.
KT: Alright, throw me under the bus while you’re at it!
FN: If you could change anything about UD, what would it be?
BS: I wish we could have an under ground pool.
EG: Or a lazy river.
LG: It would be amazing if we had a lazy river on campus that we could jump in to take us to all of our classes and throughout the student neighborhood!
MQ: You have definitely been thinking about that one for a while haven’t you?
KC: Butter Cafe should accept Flyer.
KT: Dorothy Lane Market should deliver.
BS: It would be nice if DD’s would just permanently be parked outside of our house.
KC: But in reality, I don’t think we would ever want to change anything about UD.
MQ: RT that.
FN: If our house were to come with a warning label, what would it say?
MQ: Be careful on the stairs.
FN: Is there anything else you guys would like to share about yourself ?
All: We would like to let everyone know we have an 11th roommate. His name is Kevin J. Hogan. Cheers to our 11th roomie.
