I live in a large city and I attend a large university. I commute mainly because its cheaper to live at home and because my house is not at all far from my college. However, I often wonder if I am missing out on a significant part of the college experience. Most of my college friends live on campus, so they always talk about what they do outside of class. I do hang out with them outside of class every now and then, but then again I feel as if my social life is not all that it could be. If I am on campus, I spend most of my time at studio since I'm an architecture major and have lots of work for it. Now that I can apply for housing next year, I wonder if spending so much money on a dorm is worth the experience that I may be missing out on? Will I really get something out of it? I am comfortable at home with my own room and bathroom. I get along well with my parents, but since I'm an only child I sometimes feel as if they want me to stick around for a while. Should I try something new?
