Rooming for College

A-P-A-R-T-M-E-N-T

I'm a sophomore in college right now and I am in the dorms. I was supposed to get a dorm-suite with 2 other friends from last year but they got housing suspension because of drinking JRs. I was then placed into the random housing lottery and got stuck with a complete loser as a roommate that's as annoying as he is lame. Honestly, I can't stand sharing a room with people. Last year wasn't that bad because my roommate was cool and my hallmates were all awesome, but those are rare cases and you might get stuck with crappy people around you (like my situation this year).

Apartments are awesome because you get your own room, bathroom, living room, and you have a kitchen and a laundry room (depends on your apartment complexes of course). The only downside I see with apartments are the parties that can be a little loud, a little further from classes, and you lose the convenience of dining halls. I think it's a pretty good trade-off though since you'll have a bigger space to live in and have your own space. I honestly cannot stand sharing a room. Especially with an idiot.

Anyway, good luck and I hope you choose a housing situation that you like.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
