Muppet College Dorms: The Next Semester

[TogetherAgain]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Chef: vhet vhet vhet?

Rowlf: What's wrong?

SCHOOL STARTS ON THE 16TH!

Rowlf: So?

So? SO?!? That's the day I get home from camp! I have almost a week of camp, which doesn't allow much sleep, then I get to pretend to sleep during an eight hour bus ride home that starts around one in the morning, drive another half hour from where the bus stops, and then I have less than half an hour left before I need to be in school ready to learn! OY!

Rowlf: That's pretty bad. But hey, isn't-

I can't talk, Rowlf, I'm real sorry but I've gotta help mom get ready for a party

Rowlf: Another one?

My family just can't get enough of itself!

 

[The Count]

Yeah, know what you mean Lisa. The next term starts up for me in about a couple of weeks also. Shortened summer, due to the month-long strike which didn't resolve anything in the end. How's that for you? The university shuts down due to a student strike for an entire month, and then when it opens again cause the strike's over... The strike never even accomplished the goals for which the strike was held shutting down the university for an entire month in the first place.
Oh well... At least we have a bit of vacation time left.

By the way, started the Camp Echo Rock episodes today, will continue them tonight. Everyone's welcome to watch them down in the Floor 1 Common Room.
Already had two heartwrenching moments. Such a big smile when we saw the sketch for the song "The Coconut Counting Man".
Count: A faworite of mine. Me too.
And then the bus ride with the father and little girl naming businesses and things on their way to their apartment home... *Teared up and head crumpled down in lap.
Oh well, good night to all... Hope to see some familiar faces downstairs for the rest of the SS episodes.

 

[Skeeter Muppet]

Ah, school. I miss it so...very little.

Gillis: Liar.

Say what?

Gillis: You heard me. There were some parts of it you enjoyed, weren't there? I've often heard you reminicse fondly over marching band, or was I hearing things?

No, Gillis, you're right. There are some parts about school, college included, that I miss. Hence one of the reasons I moved into the dorms here. At least this time I got to pick my roommates...

Tosh: Were your other roommates really that bad?

Trust me, Tosh, you don't want to know.

Rowlf: You look beat.

I am beat. But you know, there were a couple of pretty funny moments at the party.

Rowlf: For example.

Let's just say it's very amusing to watch my cousins turn frisbee into a contact sport. But you know what I think the best part was?

Rowlf: Nope. Tell.

My little cousin Eden came and found me and said "Can we watch Elmo?" I said "Elmo? We don't have any Elmo." And she said, "Yes you do, I saw it!" So she takes me over to the tv and points to a tape of "Follow That Bird." I guess she saw it was Sesame Street and figured Elmo had to be there. So we watch it, and she spent about the first ten minutes saying "Where's Elmo?" Then she spent another ten minutes asking if Snuffleupagus was going to visit Big Bird by airplane or car. But she seemed to enjoy it, and her big brothers definately got a kick out of it. They did ask why Elmo wasn't in it, but they didn't really seem to care. Oh, and Ben tackled me because he was sick of me singing along with all the songs. It was pretty amusing.

Rowlf: Sounds like it.

Chef: Yeeh, I'm gled yuoo hed a guud teeme-a. Hoo lung is yuoor femeely steyeeng in toon?

One more day. They leave bright and early Tuesday morning.

Chef: Nu vunder yuoor femeely's beee hefeeng su muny perteees. Um gesh dee bork, bork!

Yeah, no kidding. We've been cramming in visits. Anyway, the whole school-starting-the-same-day-camp-ends might not be as much of an issue as I thought.

Rowlf: Why's that?

Well, I'll be in a new building, but I can get a map before hand so I'll have a pretty good idea of where to go for my classes. Since it's a late start, it will be shortened periods. And the first day of school is usually just "Hi, I'm your teacher, here's the rules, here's the curriculum, here's what you'll need for this class, oh there's the bell, have a nice day." I think I can manage that on less than enough sleep. And since there were only four girls in my grade at camp last year, there might not be a lot this year either, so I won't necessarily have to deal with people talking all night.

Rowlf: Looking at the glass as half full, huh?

Trying.

Chef: <fills glass half way with water and sets it down in front of me> Meybe-a thet'll help.

Oh thanks Chef. I'm sure it will help. <picks glass up and dumps it over Chef's head.>

Back from staying at Grover's Mom's house.........

Hey there guys. Sorry me and Grover were gone so long. We had the best time ever. Didn't we Grover?

Grover: Oh you should of seen it. Me and Kyle played at Maria and Luis's apartment and Gabbie just couldn't seem to...

...get out of her head that me and Grover lived with each other. It was fun. Then Big Bird tried to teach us how to....

Grover:....speak bird. It was neat.

We have alot to tell you guys. Stay tuned tomorrow for more of the story after me and Grover come back from work. Time for some supper. *runs to the kitchen*

Herry: Hey Kyle and Grover. Sorry I couldn't make it. I had to sit my sister. Seem ya'll had fun. Me, Cookie and sis took the subway to the park and played a little. Then we had a brunch.

You three had fun as much as me and Grover did.

Cookie M: Oh hey there Kyle. Herry me just beat 1 2 3 on the computer. It was fun.

Herry: Cool Cookie. Wait for me. I want to see this. *runs off with Cookie Monster*

*turns on some music while cooking some dinner or snack*

 

[BEAR]

Bry: Well, we're back!

Big Bird: Hey, Bryan, thanks for letting us stop by Sesame Street for a while before heading back to the dorms.
Rosita: Yeah, it was good to see so many friends there.
Bry: Who knew Kyle would be there with Grover, huh?

Big Bird: Yeah, remember when Kyle wanted me to teach him all those bird languages?! Boy was that fun!

 

[The Count]

Well, you guys are in luck. There's one more Camp Echo Rock episode left, and three others for tomorrow. Hope you're able to make it to the airing.

And with that, I wish everyone here in the dorms has a good night's sleep.
*Soft nighttime SS music can be heard on the dorms' music system throughout the house as people and Muppets start locking doors as they go to sleep.

 

[redBoobergurl]

Well Red, I'm back to my normal schedule now.
Red: What's that?
Well, I'm back from the trip, which means I go back to work.
Red: Oh, yeah, I forgot.
It's ok. I can come and have lunch with you later today.
Red: That would be great!
All right, it's a deal! And hopefully later we can catch some more of those classic SS episodes that Ed has been sharing with us.
Red: Yeah, those are fun!

 

[The Count]

Sure thing Beth... Just LMK and we can start when you get back.
Wonder if the mail will get here today. Seeing as how it's another holiday down here in PR, the anniversary of our "state" constitution. Saying "state" cause we're not rully one, though we are tied to the US.
Oh well, have a good day guys. Hope there's a package or two coming...

Doing a bit of checking up.

The following dorm members need to please contact me with regards as to whether or not they'll be staying as dorm residents, and if so what they want their robes to look like.

If you do not reply by September, then I'll take it that you're no longer interested in being residents of the dorms and your roommates and rooms will be available to others once again.

Hoping to hear from everybody to start contacting other members as to whether they'll be staying or not.
