Ole Miss

I call my apartment "Ole Miss" because even though she's old, she still have some character. There's no elevator, the fire alarms work a little too well, and sadly you can hear EVERYTHING your neighbors are doing. I've lived in this apartment my entire high school life . I've endured the ceiling in my bathroom falling out, my kitchen flooding because of a pipe bursting in my neighbors kitchen (upstairs). Ole Miss may be a pretty bad apartment, but she still holds a lot of memories for me and this is where I live.
