Their’s something very exciting going on this week at the Village. Well, they’res always lots of cool stuff going on but this is more better than usual. Don’t be fooled-free pizza sounds nice, and brekfest at the busstop is awsome, but theirs something even moor exciting then food, at your MSU apartment! And we won’t be in the hottub or pool or the great fitness center either. And your still gonna love it! Its a WRITING CENTER at your east lansing apartment!
And, if you counted less than 15 errors in that paragraph, I really suggest that you stop by! If you have an essay due soon, then I am here to help—don’t worry about confusing they’re/their/there; you’re/your; it’s/its; then/than; or who/whom: we’ve got you covered. The writing center will be held on Tuesday, March 23 from 7-10 in the VACC social lounge. Bring your essays or other class assignments by, because I’ll be there to provide creative hints and suggestions, as well as basic grammar revisions. I’m excited to see you there (not their or they’re).

12 years ago Titanic was released to the world and met with unbridled praise and adulation, and ended with the highest grossing movie of all-time world-wide. The director, James Cameron (Terminator, Terminator 2: Judgement Day, Aliens) reaffirmed himself as one of the most talented directors in the cinema industry.
After 10 years of absence, Cameron hopes to take back his top spot with the release of the immensely anticipated Avatar (Avatar Trailer). The movie is a science-fiction epic detailing the battle between humans and the Na’vi over vital resources on the latter’s planet. The film has been met with much criticism even prior to its release because of the visuals used and the much discussed “revolutionary” technology that Cameron has developed specifically for the film.
Well I for one am excited about Avatar. There hasnt been much to get excited about at the movies these last few months and this is about as block-buster as block-buster can get. Check back next week for my detailed review. Until then, check it out for yourself, beginning this Thursday night at midnight.

- ROOMMATES R FUN!
School is about to start yet again! East Lansing is a super fun place right now full of Michigan State spirits. If you are living with roommates this fall, check out this blog to learn some fun ways to get to know each other and to improve your new relationship. College life is all about having fun and meeting new people, so make sure your roommates are your close pals! I personally have met some of my best friends from being roommate matched with the roommate matching services that Chandler Crossings offers. If you are going in blind, this is a great way to get an individual lease and to be matched with people with similar personal interests. Looking to have a great year and make new friends? Then read on!
1. Talk. Get to know your roommates, don’t be shy! Compare decorating styles, clothing, food choices and school information. You might be taking similar courses and be able to help each other out. The first day of meeting someone might be a bit busy, but make time.
2. Invite your new roommates to dinner. Whether you all eat in and enjoy your new place, or find a new favorite spot out on town, this is a great way to get to know each other. Take a look at my blog on being a tourist in your own town to find hot places in East Lansing to try out!
3. Throw a fiesta! (or other cool themed party) Welcome week is almost here, so why not celebrate with your new found friends. Relax, eat some good food, party it up with music or chill out with a movie. Meeting each other’s friends will also make you closer and more comfortable.
4. Facebook or Myspace your roommates before you move in. If you can strike up a conversation before you actually meet, you will probably feel more comfortable on move in day. You can also make arrangements for decorations and shared accessories too.
5. Do your shopping together. Next time you hit the store, invite your roomies. You can learn a lot about someone while you are shopping, and who knows, you might even be able to split the cost of groceries. One of my roommates didn’t have a car so we would shop together, it was fun and she appreciated that I helped her out.
6. Hit up all the local events you can together. Chandler Crossings Apartments always have great resident appreciation events such as free food days, tournaments and pool parties. The best part, the are FREE and right in your front yard! Check with your community to see what events and activities you and your buddies can do together. (This is also a great way to meet your new neighbors)
7. Be outgoing. If you’re watching T.V., making a snack, or going out for a jog, ask your roommates to join you. It is common for people to be shy around strangers, but showing them that you are trying to make an effort can make both of you more comfortable. Nobody says you have to be friends over night!
Good luck and have a great school year!

Looking for a cheap place to bowl with your friends? Well, MSU students, I’ve got a perfect place for some fun.
Marvel Lanes, located on 2120 E I-69 (Saginaw road), is a great place for some quality bowling. It is only about a 7 minute drive from your East Lansing Student Apartment.
So here’s the deal. On Tuesdays from 8pm to midnight, you can bowl 5 games for only 5 bucks! On Thursdays, the bowling ally is hopping from 9:30pm-1am with a special including $1.29/game and $1.29/shoe rental. If weekdays don’t work for you, check it out on Saturday from 11pm-1pm for some glow bowling. It’s only $9.99/person for all you can bowl. How sweet is that?

I don’t know about you, but every now and again I need to do something different. I can only play so many games of Madden, (of which, I dominate), before I get restless. My friend had told me about a DJ he saw earlier in the week at The Small Planet, and said that I just had to see this guy. Admittedly, I was initially skeptical. How different could a DJ be from any other DJ?
I stand corrected.
DJ Rod P mixes music, puts the chorus on loop, and then plays his violin along with other instruments along with the beat!
Click here for The Small Planet Event Calendar
In all my years being a Michigan State University student, I’ve never been more entertained and blown away from a performance.
If anyone is looking for a night out, and something different to do, check him out every Monday night at The Small Planet, located at 16800 Chandler Rd, next to The Village Market. The show starts at 8 PM, and if you’re a Chandler Crossings resident with a Small Planet Chandler Card, admission is free.
You wont be disappointed. Feel free to share your thoughts when you go see him for yourself.

Where else can you find a MSU apartment that throws an off the hook pool party in the middle of the week? The Village at Chandler Crossings of course. Every year students come running with their closest 100 friends to have the time of their life. If this looks like the way you want to score your perfect summer tan then you belong at The Village. All we have to say is, party on Village. Party on.
