Nervous About Dorm Life?!
Question: Nervous About Dorm Life!?
I am leaving for college in less than a month!. I am an only child, so I am used to having privacy, but I also loved the summers I went to camp and lived with everyone!. I like to eat my own things and will have a fridge/microwave and a campus kitchen right down the hall!. Is it hard to eat in your room!? What about sleeping conditions!?! I am getting so nervous---any tips, pointers, etc would be appreciated! Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well I dont know if you are in single rooms or not but no its not hard to eat in your room, eat at your desk or on ur bed- you wont belieave how many crumbs i had in my bed in first year- ew! haha but do not eat alone in your room instead of going ot hte cafe- thats where you meet people, even if you sit alone and bring a book, you are part of the atmosphere instead of a shut in!.
But you are going to have a blast!!! I recommend getting one of those foam mattress pads for over your bed because dorm beds in general are not very comfy!.
Make friends the first night, go around introduce yourself, if you find a little group hanging out hang out with them the first night! even if you are scared or aren't much a partier, juts hang out with people on your floor !.!.!. if you wait to long and they all know eachother and do not know you, you will be the outcast that no one knows!.!.!.!. ( trust me, personal experience sadly),

Everybody is like that!. I was in despair about having a roommate because I am a very private person also!. But having a roommate is cool, you automatically meet someone and have someone to talk to!. They even help you meet more people and vice versa!. And eating is just like eating at home, just chill out and enjoy it!. Also, the fact that you are supposed to be nervous usually makes me not nervous!.!.!.hopefully that works for you lol!. good luck Www@Answer-Health@Com
haha you sound just like me last week! I had college orientation (fri-sun) and it was AWESOME! I was really nervous just like you but don't worry about it cause everyone there is nervous and just wants to make friends!. I met a ton of people and stayed up until like 5am both nights doing stuff (not gonna specify lol) but college is really fun!. I'm sure you'll have a great time
