Air conditioning: something easily taken for granted that prevents B.O and sweatiness 24/7. Without it, sweating is inevitable and WILL happen profusely, especially if you live in the south. You would think in an age where robots exist, space travel is possible, and technology is constantly being advanced that air conditioning would be everywhere. Wrong. Many dorms have not changed since they were first built.
1. Stage one: "Maybe it won't be that hot..."
GiphyBefore move-in day, you prepare by buying 5 fans. One for your desk, one for your bedside table, one rotating one, and two box fans. You think that will be enough and maybe the fans will make no AC bearable.
2. Stage two: you get to your dorm and realize it IS that bad
GiphyThe 5 fans you bought and placed strategically in your room can't cool off an area with 90 degree weather.
3. Stage three: you complain to your parents, at which point they tell you that they lived without AC in the south and turned out fine
GiphyThis information is not helpful.
4. Stage four: breaking the no-pants barrier with your roommate on night one
GiphySorry, roomie, I'm not wearing pants to bed in 90 degree weather.
5. Stage five: wearing running clothes to class on the first day of school
GiphyWhat even is looking cute if you have sweat stains.
6. Stage six: finding a way to never come back to your dorm during the day
GiphyAt least libraries have air conditioning... and couches for napping.
7. Stage seven: checking the weather for next week and realizing it's going to rain, meaning your dorm will inevitably be cooler
GiphyI've never been more excited for a week of rain in my life.
For all you old-dorm residents suffering through the summer heat with no AC, you got this.
