The University of Virginia emailed today informing me that they tore down my first year dorm so they can rebuild a more state of the art building. I think every first year needs to experience the extremely hot rooms with the only air flowing from the fan stuck in the window. At the time it was awful but looking back, it was definitely an experience.
There were some great memories in that dorm with some great friends. Granted it was always a hike up to this place and definitely not a biker friendly dorm but it was the life of the first year at UVA. Most days I would have to get off my bike and walk it up because I couldn’t make it up the hill…hahaha. It’s sad to see it go but I guess all good things must come to an end. Here are the pictures UVA sent me and asked if I wanted to pay $200 for a brick from the demolition.
