We have compiled lists of the top five elements of campus life: dorm boo-boos that we have all heard about, retweets by the notorious @OUProblems Twitter feed that is such a source of enjoyment, study spots that you may not have known about, but you now must hunt out, desserts offered by Couch Restaurants you must have before you leave this semester and some websites that will make great alternatives to Facebook stalking at 2 a.m. in a desperate attempt to distract yourself from studying.

Top 5 things NOT to do in the dorms

1. Don’t give birth in the bathtub:

I am sure we all remember or have heard about the Walker Baby.

2. Don’t adopt a stray dog and house it in the basement:

One of Walker’s residents actually did bring home a stray dog and kept it as a pet in the basement.

3. Don’t give tattoos in your room:

The stuff of OU dorm legend. It’s a moneymaker yes, but also a no-no.

4. Don’t install a hot tub or a stripper pole in your room:

Again, the stuff of legend, although I am sure it made for some great study breaks.

5. Don’t bring a fog machine and set off the fire alarm:

For the life of me I can’t understand why you would need a fog machine in your dorm room, but to each his own.

Top 10 websites to distract yourself with that aren’t Facebook.

1. Cute Roulette:

The best part about Cute Roulette is that you know that no matter how many times you play, the outcome will most likely make you coo with delight.

2. Draw a Stickman:

It’s exactly what it seems, and yet there’s so much more to it! It will mystify you for days.

3. Emotional Baggage Check:

Leave a message detailing how awful your life is, and get a song in return. If you’re feeling chipper, leave a song for someone else.

4. Is Ryan Gosling cuter than a puppy?:

A timeless argument wrapped up into one comprehensive reference (by the way, the answer is yes).

5. Flurrious:

It’s like making those paper snowflakes, without the mess … or the paper cuts.

Top 5 little-known study spots

1. The basement of Evans Hall (Administration):

I have heard students tell of a great little study spot for one or two people under the stairs of the basement. It’s not a group study spot, but if you need a quiet getaway in the middle of the day, this is for you.

2. Second floor of Zarrow Hall:

The second floor of the new School of Social Work features a cozy set of table and chairs nested by the windows facing campus is perfect for three or four students looking for a spot for group studying.

3. Children’s book collection, basement of Bizzell Memorial Library:

If you are stuck in the ‘Biz’ this week, make a trek down to the basement for coffee and then settle down with the children’s books. If you need a study break, grab some light reading.

4. Fine Arts Library, Catlett Music Center:

One of OU’s spectacular libraries, the Fine Arts Library houses books on everything from Renaissance art to graphic design to modern jazz music. This library has a perfect atmosphere and is usually pretty quiet.

5. Western History Collection, Monnet Hall:

The Western History Collection is housed in a library that looks as old as OU itself. The library makes a perfect setting for the quietest of quiet study. The library attendants will ask to keep your bag, but the views are amazing.

Top 5 Couch Cafeteria Desserts

1.Pie: Nothing puts me into the holiday mood like a slice of pumpkin pie. Whether you select pumpkin, sweet potato, pecan or just plain chocolate, a slice of pie topped with a dollop of whip cream will definitely make you anticipate being home for the holidays.

2.Fudge Brownie: A huge slab of chocolaty goodness. Need I say more?

3.Lemon Bar: For those who aren’t too into the chocolate scene, the sweet and tangy mixture of the lemon square is by far the most delicious way to fulfill that sweet tooth.

4.Chocolate Overload Cake: When the words “chocolate” and “overload” are in the same sentence, you know it has got to be one heck of a cake.

5.Cheesecake: Depending on the day, the Caf always has a variety of cheesecakes, anything from cookies and cream to just plain and simple. If you never know what to get, a slice of cheesecake is never a regretful option.
