Dear perl -gurus: i am new to perl and really have begun to love this stuff very quickly .. I have a data structure: 
my $room = ( {

        TEXT => $string,
        EXITS => $exits,
        THINGS => { %things },
        ITEMS => { %items },
        CMDS => { %cmds },
#       EVENTS => \&events,
          } );

I have a function that pass this ref, and then read some data into the strucrture and push it onto an array several passes, that I then return a ref to .. But I end up with the last (pass) element in all places in the array .. the ref use the same memory again and again? How can I make the ref a new one in each pass? When I print it out I get the correct strings for each pass .. so it must be the push that creates a problem. 
 foreach (@rooms)
        {
                ($rr->{TITLE}, $rr->{TEXT}, $rr->{EXITS}, $rr->{THINGS
+}, $rr->{ITEMS}) =  split ":", $_;
                push @a, $rr;
        };
        return \@a;
