Pros And Cons Of Living On An All Girls Floor

Living with 39 other girls is pretty interesting

Pros And Cons Of Living On An All Girls Floor
SUNY Oneonta

My first semester living at college brought along many interesting things and one of which is living on an all-girls floor. Since the male to female ratio at SUNY Oneonta is approximately two to three, there is a higher chance for your floor to end up as an all- girls floor. It's been pretty interesting living around 39 other girls. There are a lot of pros and cons to this situation, but I've enjoyed it.

Here are my top pros and cons to living on an all girls floor

Pros

1. You get two bathrooms instead of one female and one male.

That means two extra shower stalls!

2. More people to get opinions about outfits.

When trying on dresses for formals or if you have an interview coming up and need to wear business attire, but your roommate isn't around, you can quickly run across the hall or down the hall for a quick opinion.

3. More people to borrow clothes and stuff from.

"Do you have a LBD I could borrow for tomorrow night? Mine is in the wash."

4. Binge watch chick flicks with your door open.

Sometimes, all you want to watch are chick flicks or seasons of "Gossip Girl," and you don't want to be judged by your male friends as to why you're so wrapped up in a film or TV show.

5. Being able to walk around in a towel or robe and not worry about boys being around.

Because walking out of the bathroom in a towel and walking into a guy isn't something that makes your day.

Cons

1. There are 39 girls sharing two bathrooms.

Hair strands and feminine products galore.

2. Screaming.

When did screaming when seeing your friends for the first time all day become a thing?

3. Hormones.

This is self-explanatory.

4. Hair. Hair and more hair.

Girls are natural born shedders. You'll find strands of hair on the floor, in the showers, in the sinks and, sometimes, even on the walls.

5. Gossip central.

Word gets around very quickly, especially when you live on a floor with all girls.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
