The small society consisting of inhabitens of room №C202 appeared in the morning of 27th of October. I arrived to the cultural centre of HSE on about 10:00 A.M. without any idea who to live with. All my friends from Voronezh, mostly girls, had arrived at 7:00 A.M. and they were going to get directions to their room in dormitory. I received a ticket with numder 715 and understood that I would get my directions at about 7 o'clock P.M. or even later, so I had enough time to find people who I wanted to live with. And then I saw Gleb and immediatelly understood that I to live with him. He was from Novosibirsk, and I was acquainted to several people from with town, so we started to seach for them. After 5 minutes of searching we founded Anton, then Alex, Telman and Ilya and we all made a decision to live together. My friend from Voronezh gave me ticket with number 400, so my new neighbours and I got our directions much earlier than we had expected. After an hour of travelling to Odintsovo and another hour of registration and getting our bags to the 20th floor we gathered in kitchen and met a question: 'What are we going to eat?' I had a pocket of buckwheat, so I cooked it and we all had a supper.
After a few days we saw our other neighbours, Suren and Vahe. During the next we had nothing to learn, we were just walking in our area, talking and playing cards in the evenings. We have seen our other neighbours, Suren and Vahe. We were cooking together. If someone were cooking, he was cooking not for only him but for several people. We had two big refrigerators, but used only one, because of not having much food and especially because of the fact that everyone ate not only his food but the food his neighbour. It was very effective: someone cooked and all ate, then another someone cooked and all ate. It was just like a tribal community when everyone shared with each other.
Then the studying began. From day to day we had more and more homework that is why all of us had a little amount of time for cooking and talking. No one wanted to go to supermarket and cook for everyone. In the middle of September we decided that one refrigaretor would be 'private'. It meant that no one could eat food from this refrigaretor if he hadn't put this food to it. All agreed. After one week 'common' refrigerator became empty, and 'private' one became overfilled. We were spending more and more time studing and were speaking two or three phrases while studing. Our started to look more capitalistic than common, and I think it is ineviatable way over every society.
Today Anton looked in the empty second refrigerator and suggested to make it private too.

Ha! Great ending! (Sorry to hear about the situation, but it's a very humorous way to end.)
ОтветитьУдалитьIt's very great idea to compare our flat with the civilization! It could be not bad sociological survey if you use some parameters, and find the way they change. In addition, as indicator of evolution, I can give such example: first time we clean up together, help to the person, who should do the cleaning. But evolution goes. Now only the person, who should do the cleaning according to the list, clean up.
