Annie Hayes Greeley, 18 I get up, and if it’s cloudy I wear sweats and a hoodie. If the sun’s out, I get on weather.com to see what it’s going to be. (My backup plan is) layers. I’m from Montana, and this is my first year here, so it’s pretty much the same as Montana.
Jennifer Hutchison Loveland, 25 The first thing I do when I get out of bed is look out the window. My wardrobe consists of the same things, so it really doesn’t matter. I’m from Alaska, so the snow here is nothing. The way people get outta control here ... (the snow) is never a big deal.
Melissa Burroughs Greeley, 31 We just kinda look outside. We were hoping it would be nicer than it is today. I just bring a jacket with me if I need it, and if I don’t, I don’t wear it. In Colorado, it could be sunny one day and snowy the next.
Charles Needle Greeley, 20 I open the door, and I step outside, usually in my underwear, and get a feel for it. I rate it on a scale of one to 10 for coldness ... and I ask my roommates if they went outside, how bad is it.
Meaghanne Oresjo Loveland, 22 Dress in layers. I watch the weather the night before on the news to decide. It gets frustrating because the weather can change so quickly.
Justin Ellison Greeley, 21 I usually just bring a jacket with me no matter where I go. Just make sure you have something, because the weather is bound to change at some point during the day.

|  | We're not that bright, even though in our own little world, we're geniuses. We like 80s hair bands and one-hit wonders, but among us we have respectable tastes, too. Metallica, Iron Maiden, U2. Pursuit of all things trivial is a lifestyle, not just a game. We like some sports, love other sports, and can find something to say about anything. We watch TV and movies and we've read a book or two, even a few classics (Yes, Classic Comics count!)
We call it insight, you call it what you will. | |

|  | What is up FoCo?
I am a recent college graduate of Minnesota State University Moorhead. After recieving my B.A. in English and Mass Communications this past August I moved down to Colorado.
I enjoy long walks on the beach, candlelight dinners, and heavy metal. My hobbies include reading and writing, music, movies, and getting drunk. Some of my favorite contemporary authors include Bret Easton Ellis, Chuck Palahniuk, and Kurt Vonnegut. My top movies are anything directed by Kubrick. I enjoy listening to anything that rocks.
Right now I am just trying to get to know Colorado and FoCo better. Mostly in order to find the best drink specials on each day that ends in Y. So if you know where I can get a cheap drunk on, let me know!

|  | My name is Michelle Turley and I'm 28 years old. I live in Severance with my hubbie, Brandon. We have 2 dogs and a cat. We enjoy camping, four-wheeling, and just being in the mountains. I like to cook, clean (go figure), flea market, and play poker. I have so much to say about poker... | | |
