My Crazy RA Life: A Look Back at 2012

Campus — 02 January 2013

I don’t know how I did it, but I survived a 3-year-long career as a Resident Assistant. I got out alive with a degree and some seriously crazy memories. Last week I told you all about the real apocalypse, and this week we’re looking back on the top 5 My Crazy RA Life moments. This is my crazy RA life and yes, these are all true stories!


If you’ve been reading my RA stories this whole time, you’ve probably thought to yourself, “is she ever going to run out of crazy stories to tell?” and sadly, the answer is yes. The time has almost come, and that means that in the near future, Wednesdays will be a sad day for me.

Truth be told, I love writing this series, and I don’t want to let go any time soon! But, with the impending end of my crazy RA life comes good news: it can soon become your crazy RA life. Yep, that’s right. I’m looking for submissions! If you’d love to share your ridiculous RA memories, email me or use the submission form below!

That said, I still have a few more stories to share, but I thought the New Year would be the perfect opportunity to look back at 2012′s best stories of My Crazy RA Life! Here are the top 4:

4. The Apocalypse

3. Kidnapped

That awkward moment when your residents have a guest visiting, and said guest tries to make out with you, kidnaps you, and gets you locked out of your room. Yeah, that happened too. Click through for the whole story.

2. The Repeat Offender

Sometimes, drunk residents are entertaining. Sometimes, drunk residents are jerks. Sometimes, drunk residents don’t know what they are. This girl was all 3. Yay! Click through to find out what happened…

1. Busted!

Drug busts are so much more entertaining when you add kittens to the mix. And candles. And toaster ovens. And microwaves. And alcohol. And, oh, the cops. Oh, life. Click through to read the whole crazy, awkward story!
