Welcome to Parker Thompson’s room. This is his third year of boarding at Northwood. Parker lives in a brand-new single room on Second East. His room was the former laundry room, so everything in his room is new, from the flooring to the walls. He has a nice setup and has added decoration and furniture to make it seem homier.
When it comes to rooms, Parker has been through it all. His first year, he was in Bergamini in a double room. In his second year, he was on 2nd East in a double room again. At the start of the year, his room was still under construction, so he was living in the smallest room on campus on Third East. He just recently made the move to his new permanent room on the second floor of East dorm.
This is Parker’s new room; he tries to keep his room as clean as possible because he likes the room to feel spacious. The color scheme is quite simple, but it all works well together. He keeps extra chairs in his room so that friends can come in and hang out for a while.
This is the flag that represents his hometown, Akwesasne. Being native to the Akwesasne reservation, this flag serves as a constant reminder of his home and his family. The flag keeps him connected to his hometown.
Outside of formal dinners, you almost never see Parker without a hat on. All of those hats he actually made himself, and over the summer, he makes hats for work. He is also working on a hat company for PEAK Pathways, so stay tuned for more on that.
Lastly and maybe most importantly, we have his bed. The spot where he begins and ends every day. As with the rest of the room, Parker tries to keep his bed neat. He likes relaxing here after long days of school and practice.
