    WHO AM I?
    Hi, my name is Daniel Rodriguez and I am a freshman at the University of Miami. The purpose of this channel is to prove HOW YOU CAN ENJOY LIFE WHILE GOING TO SCHOOL. My channel mainly revolves around school and lifestyle videos. In these videos I talk and give advice on certain topics regarding not only college, but high school as well. In addition, I like to show my life through videos. I do personal vlogs where I show off my life and try to make it the best it can be. Lastly my channel also contains some of my travel experiences. Keep in mind that while I record all these videos, have fun in my vlogs, and explore the world, I am a student above all.
    Don't get me wrong, living in a dorm is a great experience. However, there are some things that I really don't like at all about living in a dorm and here they are....
    1. Privacy
    Privacy can be impossible in a dorm. Not only do you have a roommate, but on several occasions there will be random people in your dorm. You also have to worry about people around the floor. A lot of privacy can be lost while living in a dorm.
    2. People in the Room
    Like I mentioned, random people will be in the dorm. It can get annoying. Whether it's your neighbor or someone else in the floor. If you leave your door open people will just start showing up, if you leave it closed people will knock on it trying to see what's up. But you have homework you hate having people over.
    3. Distractions
    Distractions are all over. People can distract you, sounds can distract you, the whole social atmosphere can keep you away from doing what you want to do.
    4. Noise
    In dorms people blast music all the time. Not only that there is just so much noise. Door, people yelling, people cleaning, the noise can become a pain.
    5.Dealing with a Roommate
    At first you love your roommate, but then as time goes you will start feeling that they can bug you! Their alarm wakes you up, they want a room that is way too cold for you to handle.
    6. Sickness
    Avoiding sickness in college dorms can be impossible. Everybody is just so cramed up and one person coughs then next then you know your coughing and there you have it, you are sick!
    7.Communal Bathrooms
    Communal bathrooms in dorms are disgusting! They can get very dirty and make you question the sanitation. Think about it, in a college communal bathroom, you are showering in the same spot where 20 people shower!
    8. Dining Hall
    The college dining hall experience is ok. The food is descent but what really kills is the repetition of the choices. In top of that, you are sooo limited to what you can eat.
    9. The Bed
    The bed at your college dorm will never be like the bed at home no matter what mattress topper you buy! That is all I need to say.
    10.Homesick
    At one point you will miss home when you are a college student living in a dorm.

    My wife was lucky, her roommate moved out shortly after school started and she never got another one the rest of that year. Me personally, I would rather live in my car then another dorm with a roommate. After freshman year we lived in off campus apartments together because we had a baby.

    I had my own dorm room based on my disability so I had my own privacy. My door was always closed as I didn't want people to barge in unexpecting. As for noise, the easiest way to clear that out is put on some fans. Much more relaxing. As for communal bathrooms, if they are cleaned well everyday, I didn't have many issues with it. Though, when using the bathroom you always wear sandals. As for 'missing home' you want the best of both worlds. There are benefits to living at home and there's benefits to living away from home, and you want to have your cake and eat it too. The stay hydrated slogan, were you watching too much of "price is right', where Bob Barber would tell his audience to remember to spay and neuter their pets? If you stay too hydrated, that'll require more trips to your 'favorite' communal bathroom.

    4:02 . For all you incoming college students. If you’ve ever experienced a Waterpark washroom, I’d imagine the dorm washroom would be the same. Now imagine dealing with that for 8 months

    10 Things to like about the college forms in contrast. For points 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, I'm biased, I had my own dorm room so I had plenty of privacy and alone time. Also use fan provides a constantly flow of air next to your bed so you don't hear people in the hallway. Point 6, I was never that worried, I rarely got sick. I think my worst instance was food poisoning. Point 7, communal bathrooms. They do get dirty at times, however I always wore sandals. If things were gross and dirty, you'd only have to look at it for a day as the bathrooms were cleaned daily by the custodian. If you want a bit more privacy with showering, then shower during non-peak times. Which brings me to another benefit of living to the dorms, you don't pay utility bills or monthly rent, you only pay for room and board once a semester which came out to about 400 dollars when I was living on campus. That's some inexpensive rent. With the dorm hallways smelling funky, I never had to worry about that because I loaded my room with air fresheners. Sometimes it was so strong, it made the hallway smell really good. Also in the showers, I used scented shampoo, so the bathroom never smelled bad for long. Point 8, for cooking, I remember in the basement of the dorm where I was going to school, they had a stove, however cooking to me was time consuming so an added benefit was going to the student dining halls because I was too lazy to cook. However, even with an all you can eat buffet, the food tasted like crap, so instead I would always eat at the university center where the food had higher quality ingredients for a few dollars more. Then on rainy days or days I didn't want to go out, I had my own small refrigerator and microwave plugged in where I could make my own after microwaving it on high for 3 or 4 minutes. When you mention how the food was repetitive, I'd argue that more for breakfast. The foods that make up breakfast are often limited. For me I wanted pizza or a burger for breakfast without it being an omelet. Point 9, it is your bed except for the mattress and wood/frames to hold it up. For me, I was used to sleeping in a twin sized bed so it was fine that the bed was smaller. I also had a soft mattress foam put underneath making me feel even more comfortable. Point 10, I didn't get too home sick unless it were the weekend. I happened to go to a suitcase college so on the weekends the campus was deserted. The ups to living in a dorm in my opinion: 1. Less Responsibility-don't have to pay for rent or utilities, instead I pay one flat room and board fee each semester. 2. If there's a problem with the internet or bathroom facilities, it's not your issue, you can always call up your RA and you have a custodian that cleans the hallways and bathrooms once a day. 3. Dorms are generally close to campus so it was quick walking distance. The closer to my classes the better, especially if it's raining or snowing. In addition, living on campus, I didn't have to worry about driving or taking a bus. The negatives to living in the dorms (keep in mind I had a room to myself). 1. Most dormitories you could only stay up to nine months out of the year, so if you liked living on campus, you constantly had to pack up your stuff and move at the end of every spring semester, to then move back to the fall. I went to school year round so having to move at least twice a year was no fun at all, especially for my parents who helped me to pack and unpack. 2. You had some interesting people that lived on your floor. If there was a sports game, you'd have some people yell and scream across the hallway. 3. Then of course you had some people that never cleaned up their room or who decide to wear the same clothes for three days in a row. Then you wonder why their rooms smell funky. 4. If you made some friends or got attached to them, living assignments always changed so it was often harder to keep the friendship going.

    Pro tip, never study near your dorm if you don’t have a single, it’s too crowded and distracted like he said. Just take a bit of time and go to the coffee shop/library, studying where you sleep is also unhealthy psychologically.
