timepiececlockIs living in a dorm like going to camp? Because it sounds a lot like going to camp to me.
I mean, it costs hella money, you're living in a fairly small space with a person of the same sex that you don't know very well, and you're far away from the home of your youth, and you have neighbors you can't count on to be quiet and only hope you will learn to like, everybody eats in the same place, everybody showers in the same place, everybody moves in and moves out the same day, everybody is going to group activities (class) that they don't really feel they should have to participate in... and everyone is your age.
It's like camp. But with internet access. And co-ed halls.
