      my guess — you did not choose the right place to live, or have to high standards. Housing is cheaper in europe than in boston. You just need to get in touch with local students, they share rooms, apartments and find good deals.

        • confused 6:33 am on July 20, 2010 Permalink

          I was pretty confused too. My best guess would be that grandma took all of the OP’s MIT t-shirts and gave them to all her friends except for one that happened to be fat…now I’m not sure whether the OP is upset over the loss of the shirts, or the apparent discrimination against the fat friend.

        • I like cake. 9:19 pm on July 27, 2010 Permalink

          For those that are still confused, my opinions below:
          The fat one wasn’t wearing the shirt because the shirts are too small for her. Fortunately, the OP is skinny and most of her friends are skinny. The opposite scenario, which the first responder suggests, is that the OP is fat and most of her friends are fat. This is less favorable, supposedly.
