Friendship Corner
Friendship Corner
Friendship Corner, a corner found on 3rd floor Armstrong at Georgia Tech (home to 3rd and 4th year girls), was named after its ability to attract Tipsters of all different backgrounds. Named by Kaitlyn, Friendship Corner included over a dozen girls, their boyfriends, My Chemical Romance, a list of things Dru Ricci hated, a well-shaded unicorn, a wall of quotes, and more. Friendship Corner is the birthplace of the nicknames: Spaghettios, Fajitas, and Brownies. It is the site of all Laundry Folding parties and pre-dance makeup parties. Because of hall rules enforced by the Colonel, Friendship Corner was later moved into the breezeway to accommodate Kalex and Clam. The breezeway, named Temporary Friendship Corner, was consistently filled with games of ERS, Mao, and stress, ukulele and guitar music, food, Polaroid pictures, non-Tipropriate jokes, and the famed $quad. Friendship Corner is not just the corner located on the third floor of Armstrong, it is the people. We will always be a family , whether we are physically at Friendship Corner or not.

Eduardo
On June 26th, 2015, Eduardo the red balloon was given to Dru Ricci by Conner Mcconnell. (Note: This is because Spencer's RAG had a bunch of balloons. Don't ask questions, just go with it.) After being named Eduardo and given a face, the $quad went to the talent show. Eduardo happily enjoyed the show, which was actually great besides the fact that Georgia Tech was having some serious technology issues. But as the $quad was walking back, Dru handed Eduardo to Melat. When Melat "lightly squeezed", there was a loud popping noise. Eduardo had died. Melat has been charged with murder of red balloon, causing grief, and being late. Her punishment is banishment from the $quad, (although she has been re-inducted).

A list of things Tipster Dru Ricci hates was created after it was discovered she hates many things. The list was originally written in the blood of her enemies (a dark red pen). Here is the list:

- Things hitting her legs
- People touching her back and/or sides

- Goodbyes
- Birds
- RODENTY ANIMALS
- Public restrooms
- Most pizza
- Ham (the food, not RC)
- Hamburgers/Ground beef
- Sausage (the food, children)
- Eggs
- Pretty much all breakfast food
- People
- History
- English
- Comic Sans font
- Clowns
- COCKROACHES
- Any bug at all
- Being oblivious (oops)

- LEMURS

One thing that should have been added to the list was, of course, tapioca. For some reason it wasn't. (YOU'RE ALLERGIC TO IT.)
