Throughout my four years of high school, I dreamed of the day when I would be free at last. Away from my parents' rules, away from high school rules and off to freedom! The day I got to live in a dorm with new friends was all I could think of! When it finally came time to move in I was so excited and walking into my new room for the next year was such a cool feeling. My thoughts two days later were completely opposite of what I had thought dorm life would be. Don't get me wrong, living in a dorm can be fun but there are some things that make it SUCK!

1. There is no perfect temperature in your room. If you close the window in the winter it's broiling, if you open the window in the winter it's freezing.

2. The fear of someone stealing your favorite shower.

3. The fear of someone stealing your favorite stall.

4. When there are no paper towels in the bathroom for 2 weeks.

5. Fighting for a washing machine or a dryer.

6. When someone takes your wet clothes out of the dryer.

7. WHAT IS THAT STENCH?!

8. Someone always banging on your door asking for something.

9. Neighbors playing loud music twenty-four seven.

10. Forgetting your keys!!!

Dorm life isn't always that bad but in these instances it DOES!
