Fall of 2016: Kim Chatterson (BA카지노 게임 컬렉션92) is skimming her Facebook feed when she comes across a post by the daughter of a friend, a young sometime client of Kim카지노 게임 컬렉션s Montreal-based fitness business.
Jamie Handfield (PHE카지노 게임 컬렉션19) is just starting her second year at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s and her post is a picture of her with friends posing in tricolour gear on the porch of Jamie카지노 게임 컬렉션s new student-quarter digs.
Kim smiles to herself with a certain maternal pride, then looks a little closer. Those steps. That transom above the door. The numbers painted on the transom: Two. Three. Seven.
Kim hurriedly writes a comment, which is all caps in her mind, if not on the page: 카지노 게임 컬렉션JAMIE, WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY HOUSE?카지노 게임 컬렉션
Jamie remembers reading Kim카지노 게임 컬렉션s comment. 카지노 게임 컬렉션I was floored,카지노 게임 컬렉션 she says.
카지노 게임 컬렉션What are the odds?카지노 게임 컬렉션 adds Kim.
Actually, the odds are probably pretty good. Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s students come and go, but Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s student houses are eternal, passed down from alumni to sophomores, from time immemorial.
In this case, the legacy house is 237 Alfred St., a Victorian-era brick semi. In the fall of 1989, it was passed down to Kim Chatterson and another friend from Montreal, along with three guys from Halifax. The boys moved out after second year and 237 hosted five girls from then until grad.
Twenty-four years passed, mostly in three- and four-year increments for 237, as students came and went. The campus grew, the student-run pub Alfie카지노 게임 컬렉션s was renamed the Underground, the internet changed everything.
Everything, that is, except how student houses changed hands. In 2016, Jamie and her four Montreal friends were bequeathed 237 by another Montréalaise on her way out.
카지노 게임 컬렉션It was newly renovated, so that was attractive to us,카지노 게임 컬렉션 says Jamie.
Kim is jealous about the renovated kitchen. In the 카지노 게임 컬렉션90s, she says, 카지노 게임 컬렉션the kitchen was very basic, old wooden cupboards.카지노 게임 컬렉션 And 237 didn카지노 게임 컬렉션t have a coin-operated washer and dryer in the basement as it does now.
Parties were common in Kim카지노 게임 컬렉션s time. She remembers one party where 카지노 게임 컬렉션a few hours in카지노 게임 컬렉션 we decided it would be really fun to sign our kitchen wall with permanent marker.카지노 게임 컬렉션
Jamie says 237 Alfred was a party house in her time, too, but often the revellers were rodents. There was the time that her roommate reached into the dryer, grabbed something soft and fuzzy, and pulled out a dead bat. That was preferable to the live bat that spent a week flying between the upstairs bedrooms, Jamie says.
At the beginning of fourth year, she says, the roommates returned from Montreal to find the house covered in mice poop. They disinfected everything with bleach, set traps, and waited for the exterminator, she says.
One feature of 237 Alfred impressed both generations of roommates: a narrow, winding set of back stairs to the kitchen. 카지노 게임 컬렉션It was just a hazard,카지노 게임 컬렉션 says Jamie. 카지노 게임 컬렉션We카지노 게임 컬렉션ve all fallen down it, every single one of us.카지노 게임 컬렉션
Kim admits the stairs don카지노 게임 컬렉션t make a lot of sense in the modest house, but when the landlord sent someone to check on the house following the permanent marker incident, the back stairs allowed for a quick getaway.
The house카지노 게임 컬렉션s real challenge, both agree, was its single washroom. 카지노 게임 컬렉션A typical afternoon in 237 Alfred was one girl on the toilet, one in the shower, and one brushing her teeth,카지노 게임 컬렉션 says Jamie. 카지노 게임 컬렉션During Homecoming, it would have been one brushing her teeth, one peeing in the shower, and one peeing in the toilet.카지노 게임 컬렉션
카지노 게임 컬렉션The four walls are one thing; it카지노 게임 컬렉션s what went on [inside 237 Alfred] and the memories we share,카지노 게임 컬렉션 says Kim. 카지노 게임 컬렉션I will always look back on [that time] as the greatest years of my life.카지노 게임 컬렉션
