That’s got to be the grossest thing I’ve heard. I mean, I start feeling pretty grungy if I miss a shower every day. I can’t imagine how it must feel not to shower at all. I think personal hygiene should not be an option if you live in a place like a dorm, because it’s not fair to others around you. I think someone (brave) should speak to her about it, or maybe even send her an anonymous note.

Congrats on the bloggies! :-)

I don’t think I’ve smelled anyone so disgusting in my entire life. At first I thought you were talking about an your apartment complex and a homeless looking girl living in it. That would have been acceptable. But, a college dorm and a college girl?! That’s just wrong..

I believe she lives in a single. The rooms in the bridge-type thing she lives in are all singles, which makes sense because I can’t imagine how anyone would be able to live with that stench!!

Ugh, how gross. You shouldn’t be having to go around febrezing everything! How expensive. I think it would be a good idea to find out who the girl is and have a word with her privately about it. That way it solves the issue and you don’t embarrass anyone. However If you’d rather not get that close (how would) try the Alice method by shouting “OH MY GOD WHAT IS THAT SMELL” sometimes having selective tact can be useful.

Boy do I feel sorry for her room mate.

(congrats on the bloggies lovely!)

Oh ewwww :s It’s so sad nobody has spoken to her, not even a friend or a family member :( Maybe she has a condition that makes her smell that bad. But seriously that is pretty gross *sighs* Maybe someone should give her an anonymous hint?

Also congrats on being nominated and I’m glad you enjoyed Star Trek too :D

There was a girl in my class in grade 7 who smelled so bad. She used to try to hang out with us and hug us, and we were like EW GO AWAY. I mean, it felt so bitchy and mean, but we didn’t want to hang around someone if she was just going to gas us. :|

It’s a pretty awkward situation though – you don’t want to tell her “You smell disgusting and nobody can breathe around you,” but you don’t just want to seem mean for no reason.

I’m pretty sure the RA will have to talk to her. Don’t feel bad – this is the kind of stuff that RAs are paid to do :P
