Moving In To College Housing Is Hard
theodysseyonline

It is that time of year again. The time of year when parents come in droves to move their precious child into their apartment, dorm, or house for the school year. This time of year can be a very emotional one for the parents and child as they say goodbye until they see one another again. This can also be an emotional time due to the lack of air conditioning in most older places in Ann Arbor. You may find yourself actually crying at night because you have never sweat so much in your entire life and you actually think that you bed is more like a kiddie pool of sweat and dismay than an actual bed. If you are one of those kids who have been blessed enough to be given housing in one of the air conditioned dorms, chilled apartments, or have an unreal self regulating temperate that causes you to never sweat, then good for you but I would like to tell you right now that I’m jealous and I hate you for it.

This past week I moved into my house that I’m living in this year. After carrying my excessive amount of clothes, shoes, and miscellaneous things that will probably fall under my bed and never be seen again, up to my room I can confidently say that I have never sweat so much in my entire life. During these excruciating two hours I had many thoughts, some of them included choice words that my mother would not be too pleased to hear me saying. But, some thoughts seem so relatable to most college aged students that I decided to share them now:

“I’m so hot.”

“I’ve never sweat this much in my life.”

“Can you pass out from sweating too much?”

“No boy will ever be attracted to me looking like this.”

“Do I have a sweating problem?”

“Does my body not regulate temperature?”

“This is the most exercise I’ve gotten in months.”

“My fitbit says I’ve gone 23 stairs, I feel like it should be more.”

“I haven’t even hit my step goal yet.”

“I’m so hot.”

“I wonder if I hide out in the car if my parents will just finish up for me.”

“Does Selena Gomez sweat like this?”

“I need to be more like Selena.”

“I just wanna look good for ya, good for ya.”

“This is horrible.”

“How are there still things in the car?”

“Should I cut my losses on those things?”

“We need an elevator.”

“I’m so hot.”

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
