its not what you think...
So people talk up going away to school, but they never give any of the negatives of going away... first of all as soon as you get to school you notice you have to do things for yourself that you didnt even notice before even got done. Such as if you were anything like me i hadnt done a load of laundry till i got down here. well things changed when i did....i was fine though and so were my clothes....sorting clothes is overrated though...who says you do....you'll be fine. On to the next one- what happens when you get sick at home? you go to the doctor and you get better...well, when your at school you have to make your own appointment and go get your own medication and hope it works. Not my case the last 4 times ive got to the doctor while ive been at school. Also alittle fyi you should definitely have common meds in your dorm room...aka cough syrup, tylenol, bandaids, neosporin....ect, ect. they'll come in handy. thirdly when you go away thats when you notice how much you parents do for you that you take forgranted. its the little things you notcie when your here and they are at home.
