There’s a term at Stanford called dormcest used to describe romantic relationships that occur between people living in the same dormitory or residence.

Not much to write today. Rae’s friend Michelle from Seattle came down to visit. We went to Berkeley before going to San Francisco to a house party at Deb and Michael’s place. Here are some pictures from the event, almost all at ISO3200.
