As the fall semester approaches, not only will college students stress about school work; they also have to worry about moving into a new space.
Whether it's moving into a new apartment or a new dorm room, everyone knows the struggle of hauling all their things. It's an exciting day to get into a new place but a very long tiring one as well.
Here are 15 thoughts and questions that go through every college students' brain on move-in day.
1. How am I going to fit all of this stuff in my car?
No seriously, should I consider renting a U-Haul? I don't remember owning this much stuff.
2. I hope I didn't leave anything behind.
3. It is too early for this much activity.
Most college kids I know don't wake up early for anything, but on move in day you just have to suck it up.
4. Trying to find a parking spot close to your residence hall.
Finding a parking spot close to the building is crucial because hauling stuff across campus is never fun.
5. Having the right people help you move.
The more people the better. The family will always be there to help out though.
6. Praying all the dollies aren't being used.
The residence hall has a limited amount of dollies, so get them while you can! Pro tip: buy a dolly at the hardware store that way you"ll have it for any and all moving purposes; you're welcome.
7. "I am literally sweating."
It's still the end of summer so you'll be drenched in sweat, don't worry.
8. Hm, I wonder how old this elevator is...
With all the people moving in at once, an elevator is bound to stop or make a weird noise, let's just hope you are not on that one.
9. The mass amounts of people moving in at once is just chaos. There's no way around it.
Even if the elevators are working properly you have to hustle if you want to make it on one right away because everyone is battling to get there stuff in as quickly as possible.
10. How many trips am I going to have to take before all my stuff is in my room?
It feels like an eternity of up and down carrying items all day long.
11. Water, I need water.
Remember when I said you were going to sweat a lot? You're going to be dying of thirst too. Water will taste great even if it's not super cold.
12. Man, I hope my roommates are chill.
Sometimes you go random while other years you might room with friends, regardless you don't really know a person until after you've lived with them so be prepared.
13. Wait, now I have to organize everything?
So you finally moved all your boxes and bins into your room. Now take a 5 minute break and go organize everything.
14. I wish I was catching up with my friends right now.
Students typically have designated times and days to move in. So if your friends move in before you, move-in day can be that much dreadful.
15. Oh look, it's dark outside.
When everything is finally in its spot and your room looks put together, you realize the day is over; but it was 100 percent worth it because now you have a place to call your own.
