I don't think dorm life is for me. I'm engaged, I have my cat with me and I'm already living on my own pretty much. No way I could live in a dorm. /tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" />

You know, I must add my opinion into this. If you are a nerd and deeply enjoy your personal space, then run, do NOT walk, away from dorm life. Find an apartment. Find a two bedroom near campus and find a roommate. Only share the kitchen. It's good. Seriosuly.
Roommates do suck, depending on how they are. Currently, I'm in dislike of mine. Meh. It could be worse. Moving anyway.
However, I think I would live in a dorm if I had one available. Everyone should go to a tech school that doesn't provide dorms. They provide real-life...stuffs? Or something. They also turn your brain to crap. Meh.

Post count is irrelevant. Content is everything.
Dodge this!

Eh...screw a dorm. I prefer to not have my friends living with me. If anything, it's a lot more likely that you'll eventually hate the friend even though you may have originally thought it possible to get along based on prior experiences. Unless you get lucky, find a really cool person, and you're a people person, chances are you'll be getting on each others nerves at some point. I'm actually happier with my privacy and personal space. If I want friends around, I can just call them, and I seem to make new friends just fine despite not being much of a people person.

"You sharpen the human appetite to the point where it can split atoms with its desire; you build egos the size of cathedrals; fiber-optically connect the world to every eager impulse; grease even the dullest dreams with these dollar-green, gold-plated fantasies, until every human becomes an aspiring emperor, becomes his own God... and where can you go from there?" "And as we're straddling from one deal to the next, who's got his eye on the planet, as the air thickens, the water sours, and even the bees' honey takes on the metallic taste of radioactivity? And it just keeps coming, faster and faster. There's no chance to think, to prepare; it's buy futures, sell futures, when there is no future." - John Milton
