The majority of
students live in shared accommodations in their college life. Because this may
be the first time they share space with non-family members, this is the time
when college may either become enjoyable or hellish. If you can develop a
boundary with your roommates, your success is guaranteed. Make sure you have
the time to study for your exams undisturbed and then you can enjoy your new
college life. Although you cannot change people around you, as long as you
clean up after yourself, your life will be much easier.
In this new college
life, you will meet lots of new people, but don't let this affect your
relationship with your family, friends or those back home. Remember that you
had a life before college and you will have one after it as well. Also, keeping
the relationships with your friends from outside the college life can be a form
of relaxation when your college life gets to be too much.
There aren't many
rules that teach you how to settle into college life but you have to give it a
chance. Don't rush back home every time you run into some difficulties because
then you will find it harder to adapt in real life as well as in college life.
Also, the best parts of college life happen on weekends, so don't miss them.
