The (lack of) lighting really sets the mood.

The one and only hookup master of Bwog comments on the next place to get it on semi-publicly: our famous Diana.

Valentine’s Day might be over – the chocolates eaten, the flowers bought, and the profiles swiped – but it’s never too late to fornicate. Global warming has expedited the snow melting process, and as ice cold water drips down your face, you may be fantasizing about what else could be. This week’s sextination is for confident, experienced, thrill-seeking sexplorers. Danger and discovery await you at what some would call “Diana’s penthouse.”

Step 1. Gaining Access

There’s only one room at the top of Diana, which opens out onto the rooftop garden (that looks to be the site of many an alumnae happy hour/financial extortion session). One enters the room the minute one exits the elevators: the sixth floor’s biggest appeal/drawback.
Entering from the back is also possible, by a staircase leading up from the 5th floor. We’ll return to this staircase in “Step 4: Pulling Out.”

Using the sixth floor as a bachelor pad is only advisable late at night. Attempts earlier in the evening might result in your hot and sweaty (post-elevator) interruptance of a club meeting or a study group. Attempts during the day are incredibly risky considering the busier nature of diurnal Diana and the incredibly lit (sunlight-wise) sixth floor.

Step 2. Setting the Mood™

Lighting can be controlled by a very nondescript white switch to the right of the elevators. At night, the Mathematics building across the street singlehandedly lights the sixth floor of Diana. Who is up this late doing math? Perhaps Tyga, who in his hit song, “Stimulated,” claims, “All day I’m doin’ math.”
Because the room is the only one of the floor, there is no one to overhear you. Don’t get too loud, however- one of you should be listening at all times for the approaching of the elevator.

Step 3. The Logistics

Unlike previous locations in our hookup series, the Diana sixth floor has abundant furniture: table, couch, chairs- you name it! The full couch is arguably the most valuable asset. Additionally, the floor (a cold, hard yet smooth concrete) ranks low on the CGF (Columbia Gross Floor) index. The room overall, in fact, is impressively clean and empty.
When situating yourself within the room, keep in mind those Broadway-facing floor to ceiling windows. Unless of course, you’d like to put on a show for Tyga and the other inhabitants of the Mathematics building.

Step 4. Pulling Out

With the sixth floor, pulling out is a possibility at any moment, should someone arrive in the elevator. If you hear the distinctive whoosh of a Diana elevator on the rise, do not panic. Simply grab any discarded clothing items and relocate to the back stairwell (it has a small inlet at the top where you and your hanky-panky pal can regroup and successfully avoid infamy).

Go off and do your bold, beautiful breeding! Don’t get caught. ;)
