Meet My Laundry Buddy

Stephen gets it done

It’s 11 am. Ask me how my laundry’s looking. Go ahead, ask me.

Okay, I’ll tell you how my laundry’s looking ... it’s all caught up! It’s washed, dried, folded, and put away. The clothes are clean, the sheets are clean, the towels are clean, and the bathing suits are clean.

Dorm Essentials?

What are some "must have" items at college?
