12 Ways To Have A Cozy Dorm
Kinley Powell

There are a lot of things that I love about college. I love the atmosphere and the community. I love that it takes me two minutes to walk from my dorm to my classroom. And I really love my roomie, suite-mates, and teachers, but I can say hands down the best thing I love about Anderson University, is my dorm. If you know me, you know that I am not a homebody. To be on-the-go is my first nature. Being busy, hanging out with the people I love, and sitting outside on a pretty day are my favorite things, but at the end of the day when there is nothing else on my to-do list, I am thrilled to come home to my cozy dorm.

I made a list on all the things that I find cozy or cute in my room and if you are trying to cozy up yours, feel free to take some ideas!

1. Throw Pillows On Your Bed

There is nothing cuter than throw pillows waiting on you when you get home!

2. Pictures Around Your Room

Because why not have pictures all around your room? Seeing pictures of my friends and family make me smile!

3. Cute School Supplies On The Desk

As much as I really need that paperclip right now, it's too cute to use.

4. Blankets On Blankets

Because blankets in the dorm are perfect.

5. Decorate For Each Season

Mini pumpkins for fall!

6. Wall Art That Makes You Smile

It brings color into your room and reminds you to keep on truckin'.

7. Stickers On Your Laptop Case!

I'm planning on filling this case up with stickers that mean a lot to me.

8. Chic And Classy Mugs

When you really need coffee, but the mug is super cute and you don't want to get it dirty....

9. A Comfy Rug

This is my favorite. Being able to walk onto a soft rug and jump into bed is just relaxing.

10. Pretty Lights

This is a big deal! Our room wouldn't look nearly as cozy if we didn't have the twinkling white lights.

11. Something That Reminds You Of Home

My family and I love music, so bringing my ukulele to the dorm reminds me of them on the daily.

12. Fake Or Real Flowers

Because they bring the room to life!

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst. You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed.

Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
