Welcome back to Rose Hill, Rams! Sometimes I worry that I won’t overhear enough entertaining things during the course of a month here on campus, but these past few weeks have proved me totally wrong. Walking through the caf, riding the Ram Van, or studying in Dagger John’s is always much more amusing when you’re a professional eavesdropper. Maybe that’s not my most employable or attractive skill, but it sure keeps life interesting.
Without further adue, here is your first #OverheardAtFordham of the New Year!
1. Puppy Love
“If I had an hour to live, I would just be like put me in a room full of puppies.”

“You know what she got us? These little mason jar shot glasses!”
[Author’s Note: These are adorable.]
3. Hide-and-Seek
“I knew you were hiding from me, but I saw you.”
4. Is this a compliment, or…?
“You look good today, even though you’re like a hot mess.”
