Some first-years like to speak with pride of their broad experience visiting different dining halls, while others just casually mention that Adams or Lowell would be quite convenient when asked their preference. We've all wondered where we would end up: maybe in the same house as the guy we like, or perhaps instead in PfoHo, which we still can't pronounce.
