1. Don't drop the soap.

Then you will have to pick it up and your body may touch the dirty shower walls that has hair and other things on them.

2. Doing laundry actually isn't that bad.

Try not to do it on Sunday because the laundry room is very busy and packed with people waiting.

3. Take your laundry out of the machines when it is ready.

There are some eager people in there, waiting to put their clothes in who may take your clothes out. (Me being one of them, sorry)

4. Plan your nap around when the band is going to be outside of your window.

(Or construction, or whatever noise there may be). After a long day, the last thing you want is to be woken up by constant noise.

5. Shower shoes, man.

6. Don't have too many snacks in the room.

Because when you get bored, all you want to do is eat them all. Or you eat something when you get home after a night out, after that slice of pizza or french fries that you ate already. (Maybe that's just me).

7. The Health Center

...definitely not the same as your doctor at home

8. 8 AM class means 7:35 wake-up.

Just cause you live close enough to your class

9. Dining Hall.

Cannot even be compared to the home-cooked food at home.

10. You should have a big enough fridge to fit all your good stuff in it.

And a freezer for ice cream. And microwave for popcorn.

11. Keep the AC on so it doesn't get gross in the room.

Especially in Florida...my AC is always blasting which could probably explain why my ceiling has fallen a few times and water has come down. But nothing is worse than coming back to a muggy room that could smell bad.

12. Always walk around with socks or shoes on.

Nothing is nastier than stepping barefoot on something dirty or squishy.

13. Carry your room key with you into the shower.

Just so you don't lock yourself out in a towel.

14. Wash your sheets.

Don't forget that you're sleeping on them every night. They get dirty just like clothes do!

15. Respect your roommate, their privacy, and space.

You have to live with someone for months so you should keep a good relationship. It could definitely affect your college experience. And if you dont have a good relationship, it isn't the end of the world.

16. You have neighbors.

You should make friends with them.

17. Flush the toilet.

Nobody wants to see your nasty shit.

18. Sometimes you gotta shower with the door open (but curtain closed in front)

It could feel extremely claustrophobic in there, plus you need a good rinse and shave.

19. It is really fun at times.

You're close (walking distance) to all of your best friends!
