When you move into your dorm room, you're excited and happy to either be back with your friends or start a new journey freshman year. Throughout the year, we meet new people, do new things and usually end up hating the little jail cell you're stuck in. This only gets worse as the year goes on. By the time spring break comes around, being anywhere but that tiny little room seems ideal.
Although the room is tiny, dusty and restricting, you will usually find yourself becoming a little sad about leaving it at the end of the year. You're clearly not going to miss the dust or the room itself, but more of what comes with the room.
Your best friends are right down the hall.
Let's face it—you're never actually alone or bored in college, theres always someone there to watch Netflix with or do crazy things with at 2 a.m. Now that you're moving out, you realize how bored you're going to be without your friends
You have a lot more freedom.
No one is asking you where you're going, who with, how long or anything else like that. You have the freedom to do your own thing without someone knowing your every move. Although you didn't miss parents nagging you, you really did miss them a lot.
You won't have endless food and snacks that feel free.
One of the best parts of college is that your student ID gets you all types of food and it feels like its free, even though it's definitely not. This makes buying a $5 drink at Starbucks a lot easier, because it doesn't feel like you're even spending money.
You always have something to do.
Whether it's studying or a party, college definitely doesn't give you time to be bored. This feels like a burden when it's schoolwork, but once you move out for the summer, you don't know what to do with all of your spare time.
We all get a little sad when leaving that dorm room behind, due to the memories we made throughout the year and the fact that moving our of the dorm means leaving the college for three whole months. Don't worry though, Fall semester is going to come quicker than you think, and soon you'll be wishing it was summer again!
