The most SPRING fundamental tier of Maslow’s hierarchy is phys- 2015 iological needs, which certainly includes protec- GUIDE tion from the elements, even if that protection is no more than a shoddy dorm room. Finding a rea- sonable place to live with people you don’t want to strangle appears to be such a simple problem, yet solutions to this dilemma can prove remark- ably complicated. Most students fi nd themselves asking questions at this time of year. Many are along the lines of, “Why didn’t I study for that midterm?” or “How is it phys- MATHEW URSUA / KA LEO O HAWAI‘I  ically possible to feel this exhausted?” However, as the spring months slip by, you may fi nd yourself asking questions relevant to your new domicile for the coming school year. “Which dorm sucks the least?”, “Is a meal plan even worth it?” and “What deity should I pray to in order to get a roommate I actually like?” are queries that will likely cross your mind. You may be frantic, you may be eerily calm or you may not care at all. One way or the other, you still need to deal with your living situation for the school year to come. Luckily, that’s where we come in. The lovely individuals who write for Ka Leo com- posed a number of articles, both within this issue and online, that will assist you with your housing predicament. For those uncertain about which area in Honolulu is the best place to live, “Which Neighborhood Should You Live In?” will prove a useful guide. Do you have a nightmarish roommate? Learn how to be even more awful than him or her with “The Monster In Your Bedroom.” If you are curious about how the UH dorms stack up to other college campuses, refer to “Best Student Housing in America.” The “My Par- ents, My Roommates” article can provide tips for staying with your potentially infuriat- ing nearest and dearest. Finally, if you fi nd yourself so busy that you can’t even make it back to the living quarters you so carefully planned out, “I Need a Nap, and I Need One Now” can help you. All of these articles and more can be found within this Housing Guide. Hopefully the wisdom of these writings will help ease the burden of determining where you will be living in the school year ahead. It is a challenge, but I have the upmost confi dence in you, and I wish you the best of luck.

Dear Reader, It’s fi nally reached that time in the year when everyone’s debating about what their plans are for the next year. “Are they staying on campus?” and “Which dorm should they stay in on campus?” Many of these issues and more are solved by the writers of Ka Leo who have attempted to help guide you in the right direction for all your housing inqui- ries. In this issue and online, you’ll fi nd tips for budgeting (which we all know everyone needs), recipes that you can make if you’re poor or rich, and information about whether the dormitory’s meal plans are worth your money in “Meal Plan Breakdown.” Most of the rooms on campus are in desperate need of personalization, which is where “Under the Radar Essentials” comes in, so you can start planning ahead for next year. If you’re in need of some nature in your life, you’ll fi nd which plants are best to buy for your dorm room in “Watered-Down Gardening: A College Student’s Guide to Dorm Plants.” The writers at Ka Leo want you to succeed, and hopefully their stories and advice will help guide you through the stressful time of fi nding housing.

Cheers, wishing you the best of lluck.uck.

DANIELLA REYES SENIOR STAFF WRITER

Do your plant woes stem from low light levels or a tendency to forget about watering them? Nip those problems in the bud with our handy plant guide. Here are some plants that you might take a lichen to.

BASIC CARE FOR YOUR HOUSEPLANT Make sure your container has drainage holes, aside from terrariums.

Use good-quality soil.

Keep an eye on your plant, pinch off areas that are unhealthy or diseased, and watch for pests.

Pay attention to how much water your plant needs: Instructions may say to water every month, but if your plant looks dehydrated and is turning brown, perhaps give it a few gulps.

Life advice from a Gay man, a Mormon, and a Harlot.

Dear Ladies and a Tramp, How do I know if a guy I like likes me back? - Forever Alone

Dear Forever Alone, How far has your relation- ship gone, exactly? Have you been hanging out and inter- acting, or is he the hot guy that sits in front of you in class who picked up your pencil for you that one time? Hopefully, it is the fi rst scenario and you actu- ally have some sort of relation- ship with this guy. Has he been doing anything to drop hints that he might like you? I think you should just ask him, but only if you decide it is worth jeopardizing your friendship. Sincerely, The Mormon

Dear Forever Alone, Are the two of you ever alone together? If so — and you’ve gotten to know him — you could make a move on him. If he responds positively, you’re in. Sincerely, The Harlot

Dear Forever Alone, First of all, do you two know each other? If not, muster up the guts to approach him, get to know him and use that as a starting point. If you do personally know him, this point in any relation- ship can be very tricky and could ultimately make it or break it. I would highly rec- uh productions ommend handling this with patience and fi nesse. Take an indirect approach in discovering spring film his agenda. What is his point of view? What are his intentions? Do not make it seem like you challenge are expecting anything out of him, at risk of unintentionally driving him away. MARCH 23-28, 2015 If the guy doesn’t respond to TURN IN TO UHP BY MARCH 30 your advances, tell him to call me. Sincerely, G-Man
