Five Things to do While Sexiled — The Rival American

By Marissa Sasso

You’ve been sexiled. Welcome to a key pillar of the college experience! Here at The Rival, we feel your pain and want to help you figure out what to do now that you can’t relax in the comfort of your own bed. Here are a couple ideas of how to kill the next few minutes hours while your roommate gets it on.

1. Wait in line at the Bridge:

If you’ve got some serious time to kill, try to get a coffee from the Bridge while everyone’s on their way to their next class! Honestly, your roommate and their “special friend” will probably be done by the time you’ve had the chance to find a seat!

2. Figure out how to use the new meal plan so you can go to TDR:

To be honest, I have zero clue how this new meal plan works, but I definitely know that the food still isn’t worth the money the meal plans cost! But since you’re stuck outside, might as well go to TDR while you’re at it. You already paid for the meal plan, might as well go use your dining dollars (?) to run into everybody you’ve ever ghosted in the Home Style line.

3. Go ghost hunting in Kerwin’s subterrace:

I’m pretty sure that place is haunted. The whole concept of calling the basement of a building the “terrace” already sounds stupid, but adding a second basement called the “subterrace” is so insane that only SPA would have such an abomination. To be honest, there’s not much in Kerwin’s subterrace but it definitely looks haunted as fuck, so maybe you can go find some ghosts while you’re waiting.

4. Be in an Unofficial Triple:

If you’re roommate won’t let you back into your room long into the night, start applying for the position of The Unofficial Roommate! Perks include: being able to stay inside, you can complain to your unofficial roommates about how you’re sexiled, and you’ll have somewhere to sleep at night. Cons: you’ll probably be sleeping on the floor.

5.Write an article in the meantime!

Hey, that’s how I got started at The Rival and somehow they put me in charge! If you’ve still got nothing better to do after reading this list, join The Rival by applying here.
