Welcome.

Bienvenidos. Welcome. You've stumbled upon Chach Chat (catchy, huh?). My real name is John though I am referred to as Chach by my closest of friends. This nickname was given to me by Johnny O and his then girlfriend as a way to distinguish between us roommates of the same name. Why the university housing people thought it was appropriate to place two people of the same name in the same dorm room is beside me, but I'm happy they did.

I'll be straight forward to say that I don't consider myself a blogger, but alas English 201 at UW-Madison is changing that. That said, this is a place for me to
post class-related 'stuff' along with whatever else I see fit. One thing is for sure, Chach Chat will continue to evolve. Charles Darwin strikes again.

Thats pretty funny that the University put two people with the same name in a dorm room together. My freshman roommate and I live 10 min. away from each other at home, but never knew each other. My dad thinks that the University doesn't do random assignments but puposeful ones because we both cam from similar backgrounds. Even our next door neighbors were from similar places, Duluth and Alaska.

Yeah, I don't quite understand the policy. My roommate that I speak of, Jon, originally signed up with a high school to live in the dorms together. Instead, he got me and his high school friend (now also a friend of mine) got the same room in Bradley that his brother got two years earlier.
