AxelQC Yeahh, once my sister got a bunch of her underwear and bras stolen... and JUST her underwear and bras. All her other clothes were still there. weird.
The dining hall thing is so real. My first semester I was too nervous to actually smuggle food out, so I'd just sit in the dining hall doing homework for as long as possible and eat multiple meals before leaving. It was serviceable, but at the end of the semester I watched a kid come in with an empty gallon water jug and fill it with chocolate milk before leaving and I have never felt more regret in my life. All that food I could've been eating at 3 AM, lost.
These are just my personal tips from my own experience: 1) PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD when choosing your beds do NOT choose the one close to the door unless you want to be the one to turn off the lights and open the door for the entire year. 2) DON’T and I repeat DON’T use other people’s stuff without their permission and don’t let others use your stuff without your permission. 3) Get little curtains ( thick enough to block out light) to surround your bed if you bunk because trust me you WILL need them. 4) Get noise cancelling headphones/earplugs and a sleeping mask to block out any light or sound when you sleep. IT WILL HELP SO SO FREAKING MUCH.
i'm scared to tell my roommate "no" or "you didn't ask permission so you can't touch my stuff". i'm a guy but most of my friends are girls, and i'm pretty scrawny. what if my roommate beats me up or something?
@@ewm6219 Chances of getting beaten up in a college dorm are pretty low tbh, but u still gotta make your boundaries clear no matter what happens, and most of the time ur roommate will probably respect ur boundaries.
Looking back on my freshmen year this is scarily accurate. Floor mates playing the slam the door and run down the hall game. No washers or dryers available. Brick of cookies wrapped in napkins. Such fond memories
after being a janitor (not at college) all we do is complain about how messy things are and then clean them as slowly as humanly possible, I once saw another janitor clean the same thing for 15 minutes, it wasn't even dirty he just kept wiping it. chilliest job ever 10/10 especially if you know what all you have to clean in order to not get written up then you just go to the bathroom and take 1 hr breaks every so often, they never knew lol
You gotta be upfront about people who leave their laundry in the washer. “Why are you touching my clothes?” “Why are you leaving your laundry unattended?”
i give like a 5 min rule tops cuz i almost always show up early, if aren't there and no other is available your stuffs going to sit on top of that washer.
@@darianbarber3763 I despise people who move other peoples laundry. If you can’t just go to another/different laundry room, wait to do it later/ don’t do it at all. I had my laundry put in a black garbage back once. Thought I lost a 3rd of my clothes. It was quite the surprise. You need to start doing your laundry a bit earlier to accommodate for potential issues. This way there’s room for error and you still have good outfits if it happens to not be a “good laundry night.”
@William Takemoto Uh... Uh... *Shoves FBI agent and sprints off HEY! GET BACK HERE! *fires two shots in the general direction of the person running Person running: *hides in alleyway to get rid of the 5 stars
My other tips for surviving college dorm life: 1: If you have the option of getting apartment-style living, do it. Then you won't have to do the 200 meter dash every time you need to use the bathroom in the middle of the night, and you don't have to worry as much about foot fungus or any of that crap. It's often more expensive that way, but trust me, it's worth the extra money. 2: Set a code of conduct with your roommate(s)/suitemate(s) the day you move in, possibly before that if you know who your they will be and how to contact them ahead of time. Trust me, laying down some ground rules first-thing will prevent a lot of arguments down the road. 3: If you have any kind of food allergies (especially if they're uncommon), don't get a meal plan unless it's required and/or your campus has enough dining options that you can be sure are safe for you. If you're required to get a meal plan and your diet doesn't really mesh well with what's offered, and the school won't make an exception for you, purchase the cheapest meal plan that's available. This way, you can have maximum control over what's in the food that you eat while losing the smallest amount of money possible. 4: Know what's allowed and not allowed in your campus housing BEFORE you decide to move in. A lot of campuses have restrictions on pets, drugs, alcohol, tobacco, weapons, candles, and/or other things that you may already own. The worst thing about moving is having to get rid of stuff because either there's no room for it or it's not allowed where you live. The only thing worse than that is being evicted because you get caught possessing something that violates the housing policies. 5: If you don't have a private bedroom that has a working locking mechanism, purchase a high-security safe for all your important documents, prescription medications, and other valuables that you can't easily replace. I'd recommend getting that anyways, you can never be too careful. 6: Be aware of what your roommate(s)/suitemate(s) already have before purchasing any sharable items and checking to see if your dorm already comes with it. You don't want to spend money on a toaster, a crockpot, a blender, a stand mixer, a blow dryer, a rice cooker, a mini-fridge/freezer, pasta strainers of six different sizes, twelve different cutting boards, two muffin pans, two cookie sheets, a knife set, and a whole bunch of various kitchen utensils only for your roomie(s) to show up with their own stuff that they were planning on sharing with you anyways. I'd recommend meeting up with your roomie(s) over Zoom beforehand to discuss what you already have and what you collectively need to purchase, then coordinate who's going to purchase what. 7: Purchase some earplugs, earmuffs, or noise-cancelling headphones. Trust me. You'll need it. 8: Maintain a regular cleaning schedule between you and your roommate(s). We typically use Saturdays as our cleaning day; we clean the floors, shower/tub, toilet, sinks, stove, mirrors, windows, doorknobs, and microwave once a week; we deep clean the cabinets, doors, fridge, and oven once every couple of months; and we wash the walls and baseboards once a quarter. Daily cleaning chores include dishes, tables, counters, and just cleaning up messes as they happen. You can pick whichever cleaning schedule fits for you, but make sure all of your roommate(s) are in agreement. 9: Do not, I repeat do NOT use tape, nails, or screws on the walls; these will damage the walls, and the university will charge you for the damages. If you want to hang posters, use poster putty instead. If you have anything that's too heavy for poster putty, put it in a cheap frame and prop it up on your desk, shelves, windowsill, dresser, or other flat surfaces you have available. 10: Check to see what's already provided by the university before you purchase ANYTHING, especially if it's expensive. If the university has a fitness center, chances are you won't need to purchase a set of weights. If your dorm room comes with a refrigerator, you won't need to buy your own. You get the picture. 11: Learn basic conflict-resolution skills, so that if a conflict happens between your roommate(s)/suitemate(s), floormates, or anyone else you happen to interact with, you can deescalate the tension and help facilitate an environment where you can work together to solve the problem before it creates future conflicts. 12: Voice your concerns and pet peeves to your roommate(s). Don't automatically assume they're doing it specifically to ruin your day. Chances are, they're only doing it because they don't think it's bothering anyone. So long as you're diplomatic in your approach they'll likely be willing to stop the behavior, or at least come up with a compromise. But when you bottle up all that stuff inside you, that's a recipe for disaster.
The meal plan one is bad advice. If you have major food allergies and the dining halls they have don’t really accommodate well for it, contact either disability services or the meal plan office and ask if you can avoid the mandatory meal plan first. Then, if they won’t budge, purchase the cheapest plan possible. But you need to contact the school first instead of just giving in.

Not doing your laundry will not only save you your time and temper, but also eliminate the possibility of floorcest, or any relationship for that matter. It’s a two in one! How about that for Black Friday!
I thought you were joking about floorcest, but then my college said in my confirmation email: 'please refrain from romantic relationships with others on your floor' Edit: I have now also delt with dorm dryers. FUCK dorm dryers man all my clothes were still wet after I put them through twice.
Never had a problem with wet clothes. Check the lint trap. People don't clear it nearly as often as they should, and that can lead to clothes not drying well. Plus, it's a fire hazard not to.
Pro tip: some colleges (like CSU) have websites where you can check the status of the clothes washers and dryers and even get notifications when there is one available.
Pro tip from someone with *THREE* PhD’s in Dorm Living: wash your clothes on the setting that’s gonna give you the coldest water possible. It reduces the risk of your light colored clothes (pink, red, purple, you name it!) bleeding onto your white clothes
pro tip: if you're frequently experiencing the laundry problem, here are a couple of suggestions: 1: do your laundry on a weekday. Everyone uses either Saturdays or Sundays to wash clothes, since there's no class on either of those days. Also quite a few people do laundry on Fridays, since there's not a lot of classes that happen on Fridays. Any other day should take a lot less time. 2: if you still experience this problem and/or you can't do laundry on weekdays, purchase a bar-style laundry soap (I prefer Zote), and wash all of your dirty clothes every day or every other day, then hang them up to dry in either the bathroom (if you have a private bathroom) or in your dorm room (preferably somewhere that's not carpeted, if you only have carpeted areas available then put some towels, a tarp, or something to either catch or soak up the water (you may even want to use both for maximum carpet protection). 3: if you ever have a day where you're out of clean clothes, use a fabric freshener spray to get you through until your earliest opportunity to wash. 4: schedule a specific day(s) and time to do your laundry, and don't deviate from that schedule except for emergencies. This way you won't fall behind. 5: if using laundry machines (especially public laundry machines), set a timer to go off 5-10 minutes before your laundry is supposed to get done. That way you have enough time to get there before your laundry gets done so your clothes don't get stolen and/or left in a heap on the floor. If you're lucky enough to have your own laundry machine in your dorm room (perhaps if it's an apartment-style room), it's still a good idea to set a timer anyway. Clothes left in the washer for too long will start smelling like mold and mildew, and clothes left in the dryer for too long will get wrinkled.
@@oldchannelimnotusing6809 a lot of people go out to party or hang out super late in college, and they’re in turnt mode so they make a lot of noise leaving and entering the dorms when going to said party.
The doors in all of my dorms shut themselves, so they didn't slam, but people clearly didn't understand how loud their conversations were in the halls when they stumbled back at midnight. It got worse when I stayed over the summer and all the international students would revert to their home time zone. They'd get back at 3AM from playing FIFA in the lounge, or whatever they did, and keep the intense conversation going all the way down the hall past my room. It really sucks when you are trying to work early shifts.
Guide to doing laundry(according to my floormate): Step 1. Wake up at midnight Step 2. Put every item of clothing in your basket, even the clothing you're wearing Step 3. Get your naked self to the laundry room Step 4. Stay in that room no matter what If you're caught: I learned this the hard way. I heard noise from the laundry room, i went to go check it out. That's when I saw him. He started to get up slowly. He knew i didn't want to see his junk, so i ran. I never spoke of this and tried to push that event to the farthest corner of my mind.
I scoff at you, you PHDist. How can you think that one PHD is less valuable than another? All PHDs matter (This comment is a joke please don't take it seriously)
As a fresh college dropout I highly recommend trying to find *anyone* you consider tolerable for a roommate before they randomly stick you with someone. My roomie always stayed out till 4am, and always brought people back to our little barely-liveable-for-two-people space and had them there until 6 in the morning. She cranked the heat on in summer months and the AC control was on her side of the room so if I turned it to something normal she’d just flip it back. She slammed the microwave door and turned on all the lights when I was trying to sleep. Loudest telephone conversations known to human-kind while I was doing online lectures. Caught COVID and spread it to me right before Christmas so I couldn’t even go home for break. Worst experience ever as a non-confrontational introvert e v e r
I watched this when it first came out as I was a senior in high school at the time. Now I’m a rising junior in college and rewatching this I was already laughing at the dorm night life because the “slam the door and run down the hall” game IS real and you WILL experience it as a freshman (bar COVID semesters)
Dear High School seniors, The moment you step in college you will: • cry at night for whatever small reason. • start making adult choices that you think you're ready for but really aren't • buy your own groceries • paybills • make doctor appointments • do your laundry • hate your loud roommates • feel lonely • try drugs of any kind especially alchohol and weed. (psychedelics are fun, just saying) • either make some sort of radical change to your body: • change your fashion • get a new earring or new piercing of some sort • let your hair grow (boys only) • get a tattoo • either you get invited to parties or dont get invited at all • your freshman year diet will be shit • your A's will slowly cripple to B's and so forth the more you stay in college. • doubt your major • miss family or loved ones at some point • start having depressing thoughts at the end of the semester • be broke • PBJ sandwich or Ramen will become your dinner and first meal of the day at 6pm • eat nothing until your classes are over • regret taking 8 am classes • miss a due date for a assignment • go weeks without cleaning clothes • spend a record amount of time at the library • have back to back all nighter for stupid reasons • have back to back all nighters studying for test all semester • dress like a lazy bum 69% of the time • have sex (loads of it if you're lucky) • know yourself better • start seeing your adult ego. Sincerely, A college student @ me if I missed any so I can add them.
• Regret a relationship • Sleep through and/or in one of your classes • Miss a class • Convince someone to share their notes with you, but they could really care less • Liberal Studies classes, they have nothing to do with your major but you have to take them anyways • Suffering through labs, science is required in some schools • Take notes, lots of them • Hopefully learn what a vacuum is and how one functions • Extension cords and power strips, lots of 'em • Office hours • Get a plant • Printing labs • Computers can sense fear when you have an assignment due in .5 seconds and they will fail you • Smuggle food out of the all you can eat places, everyone's done it at least once • Have an assignment due at 11:59 • Turn it in at 11:59 and it still be late • Cool professors • Professors who have a lecture, but for the life of you, you cannot understand their accent • Professors you don't really talk to • If you're anywhere near the stadium, you will hear the marching band • Buses - they save lives • There's always 1 grocery store that all of the college students use • Find things you didn't even know you would like • Community kitchens suck
@@tateflores man! This sure makes me exited for college!! I love the prospect waking up at the wee hours of the morning to do my laundry so I can actually look/smell/feel like a decent human being! And people wonder why so many people don't finish. REALLY looking forward to it!!!! Not. A M.S student.
@@mollytaylor8122 No problem ;) The roommate never had any common sense when it came to hygiene, unfortunately (I used A LOT of lysol air freshener because no other freshener would mask/cover the smell).
@@matthewjacobson252 thats when you just start leaving hints like a entire bottle of air freshener on them and don't say a word look at them and just spray them
Advice from a fellow double PhD in dorm life: if you REALLY need to do laundry, wake up at an ungodly hour and do it before anyone else is alive. Then pass out and miss your first class.
Not only did I manage to do my washing in private, I managed to do it for free!! One of my friends is renting an apartment near the dorms and has a washing machine and as long as I use my own detergent and fabric softener, I can use it for free. Make friends people, they are your most valuable assets! And you'll be theirs too!
Spent 8 years at dorms, so I relate to some but I never had the laundry problem :D Also, my #1 hack would be MAKE FRIENDS WITH STAFF !!! I cannot emphasize this enough. Cleaners, RAs, repairmen, dining hall staff front desk.... these people have the power to make your life so much easier, and will if you're nice to them!
In all of my time in college dorms, I’ve been able to do my laundry by figuring out my floor’s partying schedule. That way, I could potentially have the entire laundry room to myself while everyone was out getting drunk or too hung over to function. Doing laundry on Saturdays around noon was typically a good bet, too, because everyone else had stuff to do with their lives at that time (and I was just trying to get out of doing homework).
3 am is usually a good time. if all the washers are full, at least 1 is usually done and its a good chance the person who owns the clothes in there fell asleep and isnt coming back for now. So minimal risk of running into them when u take their clothes out.
"Unfortunately you don't have the luxury of separating the darks and the lights" I have never separated them and nothing bad has ever happened so I will never do that even if I have the luxury, plus it still saves water and energy
For the laundry thing there’s actually 4 options. Option three: pay a small amount of money and do your laundry at a laundry mat or option 4: go to your parents house each week and do it their for free.
I once was 2 minutes late to get my clothes, the amount of time it took to walk from my dorm to the laundry room, and someone had taken out my clothes, undid all the ties, belts, anything that could come off a garment, and placed them on top of my clothes pile in the middle of the floor. That is DEDICATION.
I was drying a blanket and I came 5 minutes before to find the dude still loading his shit into the dryer that had my blanket. People, especially freshman, are little shits.
AB T didn’t Rick Riordan come up with some in lore reason why the incest was totally okay??? Idk haven’t read those books in a while recently I’ve just been reading stuff by Brandon Sanderson

*PLEASE.* DO. YOUR. LAUNDRY. You might not notice the smell but people around you such as your roommate, your floor, and even your classmates when you go to class can tell very easily that you've been wearing the same t-shirt for the past month, not just by the stains but the horrible stench. Don't be that guy. Most universities nowadays have laundry apps that let you see remotely when laundry machines are open, and if none are available just do them at weird times at night and make sure to set alarms.
Also like... if you’re a girl and if you never wash your clothes because you will get... *ahem* stains. There’s also just that fact that it doesn’t sound healthy for anyone?
A bit of a different experience, but I’m in the Army, and during basic and AIT, the laundry segment was the story of my life. There was always the mad dash up to the bay after training was done to get your bag of sweaty, stinky laundry into one of the 3 working washers (it was 2 by the time I graduated). Some people washed their clothes together for efficiency. In the beginning, we were polite, not touching anyone’s stuff until they came to get it. However, we all said “f it, I need to wash my stuff” so we moved their stuff to the dryer. Good times, and now I know what to expect in college!
Little advice for dryers, I have found that if you clean the lint filter beforehand it usually dries pretty well. (I have no idea if this is backed by Dryer Mechanics)
You should always clean the lint trap. Not only will your clothes dry better, but it's a fire hazard if you leave it in there. The number of people who don't bother to clean it before they do laundry is astounding.
You can also do your laundry on odd weekdays such as a Tuesday or Wednesday, most people will try to do theirs on the weekends. Also, try to get an off hour on those days, giving you plenty of time to wash and dry your clothes. P.s. preemptively separate darks and lights before you leave for the wash. And ALWAYS wash and dry nice wear like tuxedos, dresses or just collared shirts separately
For those wondering what the correct alternative to doing the laundry is, you have 2 options: 1: regularly visit home and take your dirty clothes with you to wash them at home 2: just burn them and buy new ones
There are technically 4 options, but the other two are less desirable to most: 3: Stop doing laundry. You'll stink, but you'll save time and money. 4: Don't wear clothes. This may or may not get you arrested on campus.
Landon no idea. Edit: maybe I had to burn the shower as it one time was a bit hot, and only babies as all of our goats were imported and milked so we could continue to sacrifice baby goats.
Lived in a dorm for three years, and I found that if I make a timer that goes off when the machines are done I'm already there to either reset the dryer, move my clothes to the dryer, or taking them back to my dorm! I also found that doing them late at night was helpful as well as other students are out partying, sleeping, or studying.
as someone living in a college dorm now, I can say this definitely helped, I often smuggle food (and it's easier when they give you mini plates you can "accidentally" take two so you can use the second one to cover/top it, I rarely do laundry (tho it is better now cause some colleges, including my own, have an app to tell if there's open washer/dryers before you even leave your room with your laundry), and the door games are all too common (and sometimes hanging things on the door like name tags, signs, small posters, or other decor are ripped off if not careful)
Also stocking up on individual frozen lasagna and keeping them in the freezer if you have one makes it so you can be antisocial and yet eat something good
Depending on where you’re at (for example, the dorm I live in is mostly for students of one particular major) try to figure out your dorm’s laundry schedule. Since most of my dorm all has similar classes, there are certain days where EVERYONE does laundry, and I can avoid doing laundry at those times
Never leave your food unguarded. I had the tendency to prep food in advance to last me through the week. problem was for the first few weeks I found those food containers emptier than I left them. got to the point where I got my ingredients on the day I was going to use them and then made something on that day so there was nothing for the peeps I was living with to get. p.s I was the only one to knew how to properly cook amongst my roomates at the beginning of the year. my other roomates found themselves alot more penniless than me where they just got takeout for the majority of the time when they weren't taking my meals.
@@vicki11edbycuriousity or you can be like me and just make the SPICIEST food that you know your roomies can't eat it without getting caught redhanded and in pain/lh that's my plan, anyway. or bribe my roomies to clean the dishes and the dorm in exchange of free food lmao
In my first year of college, I was in a dorm room with 4 other girls (Yes, you heard me correctly.) We all got along at first, but about 3-4 months later they all suddenly wanted to kick me out for doing "terrible deeds" such as asking them to clean up their stuff that is literally scattered all over the living room and to stop eating my full meals that's supposed to last me at least a few days (I know, I was such a terrible roommate). Luckily before they were able to kick me out, I was able to switch rooms with another girl I knew. Unfortunately, this was about 2 days before quarantine, and... yeah. I still miss my new room and new roommates :(
@Ana Amaro Only 1 of them made it to graduation bc I think 1 dropped out and the other 2 couldn't bc they were on academic probation. Now I'm working on getting my Bachelor's at a different school.
i’m glad there’s an unwritten rule about morning death metal... and that i’m not the only one. also, the trick to laundry (at least in my dorm hall) is to do it on monday or tuesday 6-11am. you’ve got all the machines to yourself and nobody is awake
You could also avoid the laundry problem by taking it to an off campus laundry mat. No one takes your clothes out if the washer/ dryer and they work pretty well.
Most people in college (in the dorms, anyway) don't have cars, so the on-campus laundry facilities are really the only option. At my University, the laundry room for the neighboring dorm complex was burnt down. It was still a struggle for people (some because of laziness, but no judgement) to make the 5-minute walk over to my dorm's laundry room
I watched this video in the spring during my senior year of high school. Kinda made me a little worried about college. After my first month at college my experience has been much better then this video has made me think. Luckily my dorm always has laundry machines open haha
imagine if you were pulled over by the cops and you went “DONT TAKE MY BRICKS MAN” and they have guns pointed at you and then you drop a bundle of cookies
I've always wondered what It would be like having the whole american College Dorm experience. Gotta say It sounds like a real life experience and I'm both mad and extremely grateful that I live in a place where you don't really do that. Here there's always a uni close enough to you and your parents let you live at home the whole time so in general you pay a lot lot lot lot less cause uni is also affordable here.
To avoid all the washers being taken, I usually did my laundry at weird hours. Like 2:00 in the afternoon when everyone is in class. Or 11:00 at night. Nobody does their laundry at 11pm and I could usually leave it in the dryer overnight without worry of anyone stealing it.

The dining hall thing is so real. My first semester I was too nervous to actually smuggle food out, so I'd just sit in the dining hall doing homework for as long as possible and eat multiple meals before leaving.

These are just my personal tips from my own experience:
1) PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD when choosing your beds do NOT choose the one close to the door unless you want to be the one to turn off the lights and open the door for the entire year.
2) DON’T and I repeat DON’T use other people’s stuff without their permission and don’t let others use your stuff without your permission.
3) Get little curtains ( thick enough to block out light) to surround your bed if you bunk because trust me you WILL need them.
4) Get noise cancelling headphones/earplugs and a sleeping mask to block out any light or sound when you sleep. IT WILL HELP SO SO FREAKING MUCH.
You can get out of turning off the lights if you sleep first. Tried and tested.
The earphones are absolute must! Trust me! Or ear plugs if you're not into music!

You gotta be upfront about people who leave their laundry in the washer.

You need to start doing your laundry a bit earlier to accommodate for potential issues. This way there’s room for error and you still have good outfits if it happens to not be a “good laundry night.”

My other tips for surviving college dorm life:
1: If you have the option of getting apartment-style living, do it. Then you won't have to do the 200 meter dash every time you need to use the bathroom in the middle of the night, and you don't have to worry as much about foot fungus or any of that crap. It's often more expensive that way, but trust me, it's worth the extra money.
2: Set a code of conduct with your roommate(s)/suitemate(s) the day you move in, possibly before that if you know who your they will be and how to contact them ahead of time. Trust me, laying down some ground rules first-thing will prevent a lot of arguments down the road.
3: If you have any kind of food allergies (especially if they're uncommon), don't get a meal plan unless it's required and/or your campus has enough dining options that you can be sure are safe for you. If you're required to get a meal plan and your diet doesn't really mesh well with what's offered, and the school won't make an exception for you, purchase the cheapest meal plan that's available. This way, you can have maximum control over what's in the food that you eat while losing the smallest amount of money possible.
4: Know what's allowed and not allowed in your campus housing BEFORE you decide to move in. A lot of campuses have restrictions on pets, drugs, alcohol, tobacco, weapons, candles, and/or other things that you may already own. The worst thing about moving is having to get rid of stuff because either there's no room for it or it's not allowed where you live. The only thing worse than that is being evicted because you get caught possessing something that violates the housing policies.
5: If you don't have a private bedroom that has a working locking mechanism, purchase a high-security safe for all your important documents, prescription medications, and other valuables that you can't easily replace. I'd recommend getting that anyways, you can never be too careful.
6: Be aware of what your roommate(s)/suitemate(s) already have before purchasing any sharable items and checking to see if your dorm already comes with it. You don't want to spend money on a toaster, a crockpot, a blender, a stand mixer, a blow dryer, a rice cooker, a mini-fridge/freezer, pasta strainers of six different sizes, twelve different cutting boards, two muffin pans, two cookie sheets, a knife set, and a whole bunch of various kitchen utensils only for your roomie(s) to show up with their own stuff that they were planning on sharing with you anyways. I'd recommend meeting up with your roomie(s) over Zoom beforehand to discuss what you already have and what you collectively need to purchase, then coordinate who's going to purchase what.
7: Purchase some earplugs, earmuffs, or noise-cancelling headphones. Trust me. You'll need it.
8: Maintain a regular cleaning schedule between you and your roommate(s). We typically use Saturdays as our cleaning day; we clean the floors, shower/tub, toilet, sinks, stove, mirrors, windows, doorknobs, and microwave once a week; we deep clean the cabinets, doors, fridge, and oven once every couple of months; and we wash the walls and baseboards once a quarter. Daily cleaning chores include dishes, tables, counters, and just cleaning up messes as they happen. You can pick whichever cleaning schedule fits for you, but make sure all of your roommate(s) are in agreement.
9: Do not, I repeat do NOT use tape, nails, or screws on the walls; these will damage the walls, and the university will charge you for the damages. If you want to hang posters, use poster putty instead. If you have anything that's too heavy for poster putty, put it in a cheap frame and prop it up on your desk, shelves, windowsill, dresser, or other flat surfaces you have available.
10: Check to see what's already provided by the university before you purchase ANYTHING, especially if it's expensive. If the university has a fitness center, chances are you won't need to purchase a set of weights. If your dorm room comes with a refrigerator, you won't need to buy your own. You get the picture.
11: Learn basic conflict-resolution skills, so that if a conflict happens between your roommate(s)/suitemate(s), floormates, or anyone else you happen to interact with, you can deescalate the tension and help facilitate an environment where you can work together to solve the problem before it creates future conflicts.
12: Voice your concerns and pet peeves to your roommate(s). Don't automatically assume they're doing it specifically to ruin your day. Chances are, they're only doing it because they don't think it's bothering anyone. So long as you're diplomatic in your approach they'll likely be willing to stop the behavior, or at least come up with a compromise. But when you bottle up all that stuff inside you, that's a recipe for disaster.

That is the longest comment i have ever read through. My eyes hurt.
This is to long for a TH-cam comment
Great advice. Thank you 🙏🏽
The meal plan one is bad advice. If you have major food allergies and the dining halls they have don’t really accommodate well for it, contact either disability services or the meal plan office and ask if you can avoid the mandatory meal plan first.
Then, if they won’t budge, purchase the cheapest plan possible. But you need to contact the school first instead of just giving in.

I would bet your RD/RA had to deal with an inncident last year and they were not about to deal with that again.
Pro tip put a few extra quarters in the dryers if they allow it to extend the dry time without needing to purchase a second full dry cycle
Never had a problem with wet clothes. Check the lint trap. People don't clear it nearly as often as they should, and that can lead to clothes not drying well. Plus, it's a fire hazard not to.

Laundry life hack: only own black clothes so you don’t have to separate the darks and lights

Pretty sure I'll do this accidentally
pretty sure thats also the thief's, emo's, and cultist's life hack to some extent.
I just wash them together anyway
Pro tip from someone with *THREE* PhD’s in Dorm Living: wash your clothes on the setting that’s gonna give you the coldest water possible. It reduces the risk of your light colored clothes (pink, red, purple, you name it!) bleeding onto your white clothes
I don't even separate my clothes normally so I think im good
Throwing some salt in there too also helps! It reduces the solubility of the dyes they use for clothes and so they don't transfer as easily.
Isn't that why you seperate the colors? So that they don't bleed on the whites.
@@thisrandodude4787 But as a naive young stressed college kid, that would take too long.
@@Ari180_RE And cost too much. Even if your dorm laundromat is free. It still costs too much.
pro tip: if you're frequently experiencing the laundry problem, here are a couple of suggestions:
1: do your laundry on a weekday. Everyone uses either Saturdays or Sundays to wash clothes, since there's no class on either of those days. Also quite a few people do laundry on Fridays, since there's not a lot of classes that happen on Fridays. Any other day should take a lot less time.
2: if you still experience this problem and/or you can't do laundry on weekdays, purchase a bar-style laundry soap (I prefer Zote), and wash all of your dirty clothes every day or every other day, then hang them up to dry in either the bathroom (if you have a private bathroom) or in your dorm room (preferably somewhere that's not carpeted, if you only have carpeted areas available then put some towels, a tarp, or something to either catch or soak up the water (you may even want to use both for maximum carpet protection).
3: if you ever have a day where you're out of clean clothes, use a fabric freshener spray to get you through until your earliest opportunity to wash.
4: schedule a specific day(s) and time to do your laundry, and don't deviate from that schedule except for emergencies. This way you won't fall behind.
5: if using laundry machines (especially public laundry machines), set a timer to go off 5-10 minutes before your laundry is supposed to get done. That way you have enough time to get there before your laundry gets done so your clothes don't get stolen and/or left in a heap on the floor. If you're lucky enough to have your own laundry machine in your dorm room (perhaps if it's an apartment-style room), it's still a good idea to set a timer anyway. Clothes left in the washer for too long will start smelling like mold and mildew, and clothes left in the dryer for too long will get wrinkled.

What is it really
@@oldchannelimnotusing6809 Yes. I didn’t get a wink of sleep my freshman year.
@@oldchannelimnotusing6809 a lot of people go out to party or hang out super late in college, and they’re in turnt mode so they make a lot of noise leaving and entering the dorms when going to said party.
The doors in all of my dorms shut themselves, so they didn't slam, but people clearly didn't understand how loud their conversations were in the halls when they stumbled back at midnight. It got worse when I stayed over the summer and all the international students would revert to their home time zone. They'd get back at 3AM from playing FIFA in the lounge, or whatever they did, and keep the intense conversation going all the way down the hall past my room. It really sucks when you are trying to work early shifts.
Lol I was 12 and stayed in a dorm and got a concussion cuz someone slammed our door open and I was waiting by it to catch them
Guide to doing laundry(according to my floormate):
Step 1. Wake up at midnight
Step 2. Put every item of clothing in your basket, even the clothing you're wearing
Step 3. Get your naked self to the laundry room
Step 4. Stay in that room no matter what
If you're caught: I learned this the hard way. I heard noise from the laundry room, i went to go check it out. That's when I saw him. He started to get up slowly. He knew i didn't want to see his junk, so i ran. I never spoke of this and tried to push that event to the farthest corner of my mind.

As a fresh college dropout I highly recommend trying to find *anyone* you consider tolerable for a roommate before they randomly stick you with someone. My roomie always stayed out till 4am, and always brought people back to our little barely-liveable-for-two-people space and had them there until 6 in the morning. She cranked the heat on in summer months and the AC control was on her side of the room so if I turned it to something normal she’d just flip it back. She slammed the microwave door and turned on all the lights when I was trying to sleep. Loudest telephone conversations known to human-kind while I was doing online lectures. Caught COVID and spread it to me right before Christmas so I couldn’t even go home for break. Worst experience ever as a non-confrontational introvert e v e r

Dear High School seniors,
The moment you step in college you will:
• cry at night for whatever small reason.
• start making adult choices that you think you're ready for but really aren't
• buy your own groceries
• paybills
• make doctor appointments
• do your laundry
• hate your loud roommates
• feel lonely
• try drugs of any kind especially alchohol and weed.
(psychedelics are fun, just saying)
• either make some sort of radical change to your body:
• change your fashion
• get a new earring or new piercing of some sort
• let your hair grow (boys only)
• get a tattoo
• either you get invited to parties or dont get invited at all
• your freshman year diet will be shit
• your A's will slowly cripple to B's and so forth the more you stay in college.
• doubt your major
• miss family or loved ones at some point
• start having depressing thoughts at the end of the semester
• be broke
• PBJ sandwich or Ramen will become your dinner and first meal of the day at 6pm
• eat nothing until your classes are over
• regret taking 8 am classes
• miss a due date for a assignment
• go weeks without cleaning clothes
• spend a record amount of time at the library
• have back to back all nighter for stupid reasons
• have back to back all nighters studying for test all semester
• dress like a lazy bum 69% of the time
• have sex (loads of it if you're lucky)
• know yourself better
• start seeing your adult ego.
Sincerely,
A college student
@ me if I missed any so I can add them.
• Regret a relationship
• Sleep through and/or in one of your classes
• Miss a class
• Convince someone to share their notes with you, but they could really care less
• Liberal Studies classes, they have nothing to do with your major but you have to take them anyways
• Suffering through labs, science is required in some schools
• Take notes, lots of them
• Hopefully learn what a vacuum is and how one functions
• Extension cords and power strips, lots of 'em
• Office hours
• Get a plant
• Printing labs
• Computers can sense fear when you have an assignment due in .5 seconds and they will fail you
• Smuggle food out of the all you can eat places, everyone's done it at least once
• Have an assignment due at 11:59
• Turn it in at 11:59 and it still be late
• Cool professors
• Professors who have a lecture, but for the life of you, you cannot understand their accent
• Professors you don't really talk to
• If you're anywhere near the stadium, you will hear the marching band
• Buses - they save lives
• There's always 1 grocery store that all of the college students use
• Find things you didn't even know you would like
• Community kitchens suck

In all of my time in college dorms, I’ve been able to do my laundry by figuring out my floor’s partying schedule. That way, I could potentially have the entire laundry room to myself while everyone was out getting drunk or too hung over to function. Doing laundry on Saturdays around noon was typically a good bet, too, because everyone else had stuff to do with their lives at that time (and I was just trying to get out of doing homework).
Y'all, just do your laundry on Monday. Those machines won't be taken. Especially if you do it in the early morning.
That's an awkward time to do laundry tho
Stfu sam 88 you idiot, its the right dam time

Sam 88 gotta do what u gotta do
3 am is usually a good time. if all the washers are full, at least 1 is usually done and its a good chance the person who owns the clothes in there fell asleep and isnt coming back for now. So minimal risk of running into them when u take their clothes out.

Some people washed their clothes together for efficiency. In the beginning, we were polite, not touching anyone’s stuff until they came to get it. However, we all said “f it, I need to wash my stuff” so we moved their stuff to the dryer. Good times, and now I know what to expect in college!

Little advice for dryers, I have found that if you clean the lint filter beforehand it usually dries pretty well. (I have no idea if this is backed by Dryer Mechanics)
ALWAYS clean the lint trap before doing a load. If the machine can't breathe, your clothes won't dry.
People don’t always clean their lint filters??
You should always clean the lint trap. Not only will your clothes dry better, but it's a fire hazard if you leave it in there. The number of people who don't bother to clean it before they do laundry is astounding.

Yup
You can also do your laundry on odd weekdays such as a Tuesday or Wednesday, most people will try to do theirs on the weekends. Also, try to get an off hour on those days, giving you plenty of time to wash and dry your clothes.
P.s. preemptively separate darks and lights before you leave for the wash. And ALWAYS wash and dry nice wear like tuxedos, dresses or just collared shirts separately
For the washing wear darks in one week and wash them together and wear light the next and alternate like that
UN_CREATIVE I’ll just wear black 100% of the time so I don’t have to do multiple loads
Or just do it on Monday when nobody would probably do their laundry on that day.
@@christopherwinter2099 like early as hell too because no one wakes up at 4 in the morning to wash their cloaths
@@jairomorales1696 or two in the morning.
Or separate your clothes before you go to the laundry room and just make sure you’re on time/early to switch it out every time
For those wondering what the correct alternative to doing the laundry is, you have 2 options:
1: regularly visit home and take your dirty clothes with you to wash them at home
2: just burn them and buy new ones
I was hoping someone would suggest that
There are technically 4 options, but the other two are less desirable to most:
3: Stop doing laundry. You'll stink, but you'll save time and money.
4: Don't wear clothes. This may or may not get you arrested on campus.
my favorite activity is sacrificing goats in the shower, wdym..
Landon I sacrifice baby goats. In the tub.
Why specifically baby goats? Why specifically in the tub? HUH?
Landon no idea.
Edit: maybe I had to burn the shower as it one time was a bit hot, and only babies as all of our goats were imported and milked so we could continue to sacrifice baby goats.
Wait people shower in those I thought that was the sacrifice room
i sacrifice zombies in the shower.

yea basically
Lived in a dorm for three years, and I found that if I make a timer that goes off when the machines are done I'm already there to either reset the dryer, move my clothes to the dryer, or taking them back to my dorm! I also found that doing them late at night was helpful as well as other students are out partying, sleeping, or studying.
and you were like-- who needs sleep?
:)
as someone living in a college dorm now, I can say this definitely helped, I often smuggle food (and it's easier when they give you mini plates you can "accidentally" take two so you can use the second one to cover/top it, I rarely do laundry (tho it is better now cause some colleges, including my own, have an app to tell if there's open washer/dryers before you even leave your room with your laundry), and the door games are all too common (and sometimes hanging things on the door like name tags, signs, small posters, or other decor are ripped off if not careful)

Also stocking up on individual frozen lasagna and keeping them in the freezer if you have one makes it so you can be antisocial and yet eat something good
Depending on where you’re at (for example, the dorm I live in is mostly for students of one particular major) try to figure out your dorm’s laundry schedule. Since most of my dorm all has similar classes, there are certain days where EVERYONE does laundry, and I can avoid doing laundry at those times
I don’t separate darks and lights.
Nothing happens to my clothes

Yeah I never understood the darks and light thing, just beware red shirts with white clothes, like a uniform...
It's not a problem if your wardrobe consists of Navy, Dark Gray, and Black.
Laziness > Fashion
modern detergents and dyes are higher quality, but in the past you would have issues with colors leaching into other clothes.
Its good to seperate them becouse the white clothes can get stained
Never leave your food unguarded. I had the tendency to prep food in advance to last me through the week. problem was for the first few weeks I found those food containers emptier than I left them. got to the point where I got my ingredients on the day I was going to use them and then made something on that day so there was nothing for the peeps I was living with to get. p.s I was the only one to knew how to properly cook amongst my roomates at the beginning of the year. my other roomates found themselves alot more penniless than me where they just got takeout for the majority of the time when they weren't taking my meals.
I was worried that might happen to me...how did you guard your food?
@@vicki11edbycuriousity I ended up getting my own minifridge for my room personally and kept my meals in there that I made.
@@DGDDice Thanks for the advice!
@@vicki11edbycuriousity or you can be like me and just make the SPICIEST food that you know your roomies can't eat it without getting caught redhanded and in pain/lh that's my plan, anyway. or bribe my roomies to clean the dishes and the dorm in exchange of free food lmao

In my first year of college, I was in a dorm room with 4 other girls (Yes, you heard me correctly.) We all got along at first, but about 3-4 months later they all suddenly wanted to kick me out for doing "terrible deeds" such as asking them to clean up their stuff that is literally scattered all over the living room and to stop eating my full meals that's supposed to last me at least a few days (I know, I was such a terrible roommate). Luckily before they were able to kick me out, I was able to switch rooms with another girl I knew. Unfortunately, this was about 2 days before quarantine, and... yeah. I still miss my new room and new roommates :(
@Ana Amaro Only 1 of them made it to graduation bc I think 1 dropped out and the other 2 couldn't bc they were on academic probation. Now I'm working on getting my Bachelor's at a different school.
i’m glad there’s an unwritten rule about morning death metal... and that i’m not the only one. also, the trick to laundry (at least in my dorm hall) is to do it on monday or tuesday 6-11am. you’ve got all the machines to yourself and nobody is awake

How to survive dorms as an introvert : never leave your room.
@@quilkou8201 Barricade your room from others.
You could also avoid the laundry problem by taking it to an off campus laundry mat. No one takes your clothes out if the washer/ dryer and they work pretty well.
Most people in college (in the dorms, anyway) don't have cars, so the on-campus laundry facilities are really the only option. At my University, the laundry room for the neighboring dorm complex was burnt down. It was still a struggle for people (some because of laziness, but no judgement) to make the 5-minute walk over to my dorm's laundry room
Hannah Hochhalter if there is one, and if no one uses it.
Hannah Hochhalter that’s what i do at this point tbh.
I watched this video in the spring during my senior year of high school. Kinda made me a little worried about college. After my first month at college my experience has been much better then this video has made me think. Luckily my dorm always has laundry machines open haha

I've always wondered what It would be like having the whole american College Dorm experience.
Gotta say It sounds like a real life experience and I'm both mad and extremely grateful that I live in a place where you don't really do that.
Here there's always a uni close enough to you and your parents let you live at home the whole time so in general you pay a lot lot lot lot less cause uni is also affordable here.
Yeah I commute also it’s not really a big deal I still get involved and hang out with people on campus and went to the dorms to see how the life is

To avoid all the washers being taken, I usually did my laundry at weird hours. Like 2:00 in the afternoon when everyone is in class. Or 11:00 at night. Nobody does their laundry at 11pm and I could usually leave it in the dryer overnight without worry of anyone stealing it.

Do your laundry when you have a gap in your classes in the middle of the day. Or late on a Friday or Saturday night
