Anyone prefer dorming on campus or commuting from your own house or a rented one?
Personally, although there are times where I wish I was alone, and possibly deaf and blind with amnesia after the last incident, overall, the advantages of dorming outweighs the disadvantages. I mean, yeah, you're personal space is gone, the bath room is a horror, and sometimes an argument with the roommate. But the plus side is, it's very liberating and you are almost forced to meet new people. 😃

p.s. yeah....maybe not deaf and mute, but just spontaneous everlasting amnesia......that was a horrible experience I wish to forget.

p.p.s I'm sure there are some here that dorms

p.p.p.s, oh yeah, for those who never dormed before, those stereotypes of dorms in manga are mostly true....at least it's ture for me......

I think it is exactly the topic. I see nothing wrong.

We have sort of similar topic already, but I believe it's not a total copy.
I live in dorms and boy, it's good. Waking up 15 minutes before lectures, coming back home with bunch of drunk friends from pubs, being close to everywhere. And not having to endure endless hours in bus/car. That's life.
On the other hand, yeah, bathroom's a mess as is the kitchen and dining/living room, other students tend to come back from pubs rather loudly at 3 a.m., some of flatmates obviously are very vocal with their significant others...
Yep, dorms are a paradise 😀

I commute because the university that i go to is not even 15 mins away from my house. of course i have to wake a little bit earlier than most people but i don't have to pay for room and board because...........i live with my father.....very cool dad...cooks and everything... 🙂 the only thing that i pay for is car note and car coverage... =^_^=

I've done both, & they each have advantages & disadvantages.

Right after high school, I went to a university 300 miles from home & lived in the dorms for three semesters. It was a good way to start out, get a feel for school, etc. without having to worry about cooking, rent, utilities, & all that. Then I did a semester of study abroad (England) & when I came back I lived in a two bedroom apartment for the last four semesters. It was a 10-15 minute walk from school (depending on which side of campus you had to get to), and that was good too. I think it would have been hard to live in an apartment & keep up with everything (school, bills, cooking, etc.) when I first started university, but by the time I came back from England I was READY to be out of the dorms!! 🤣

Later I went back to a different university, & commuted. I had to leave the house an hour before my first class started, drive 30-40 minutes (depending on traffic & weather), park, get my boys to daycare, & then walk ~10 minutes to class. It...kind of really sucked. 🤢 Not badly enough to move closer to the school, though.

commute! don't want to leave home... I'll miss home-made soup =(

but yeah, travelling is annoying for me.... especially because of the snow. But who cares! Home dinners are important!!

LOL clicked dorm and was redirected to the dorm topic.

Erm... I just like dorms... don't know why my aunt lived in a dorm when she was in university, i visited it once it looked good o.o;;

Don't even tell me. Every time I get to my dorm on Monday mornings, there are so many bottles in the kitchen that I would lost count if I bothered to count. The only person that stays at dorms for weekends is an American girl who came here for a year - I dare say that she and her friends have rather strong heads. 😉

Cool _ Remember to send me a postcard 😛

I think I'll apply for dorms for my next year at college. Although the chances of getting a room adain are slim. If it won't work I hope I'll find some digs in Maynooth - the village is small, but I really don't want to commute 100 km everyday...

@binzoo - go make an introduction! ;x
