what's a plant that's immune to neglect? I am tired of looking at my plain white painted windowsill in my dorm. What's a plant that looks pretty but will not die if (more like when) I forget to water it, or leave it shut up in my cold room for a month while I am at home for break?

Hey, I know just the plant for you. It's called a "Snake Plant" aka "Mother-in-Law's Tounge"
They are very simple to care for and very hard to kill. So if you forget to water it for a few weeks or a month or two, it will still look like a healthy plant. They also thrive with or without much sunlight.
The reason it doesn't need a lot of water is because it is in the cactus family, but it is much easier to take care of than an accual cactus. They even look good, below is a link so you can kind of see what they look like.

bamboo is good all ya need is to get a stalk of bamboo and some rocks and a glass of water put the stalk in water with the stones or decorative rocks. all ya need to do is make sure the glass is pretty full can even add a fish to it ]
fake flowers could work, but if you want a real flower, orchids are known to last for a while :) cactus's too lol Geraniums dont need to be watered much, especially over winter. ]

I don't know about a plant that would live a month with no water in the cold =/ But you definately could buy some fake plants! I've seen a lot that are really pretty and look totally real! And you don't have to take care of them at all =) ]
