The worst part is the roommates I was assigned. Not sure if I mentioned this, but one is a total alcoholic/pothead, so his buddies are always here smoking up and/or getting drunk...which isn't exactly my thing! In the main room there's a large window, and already within 3 days they have stacked up 146 empty beer cans.


Suffice it to say, I'm not staying in residence for more than this semester!

Yeah, that sort of krvap is bound to happen. Now that you're there, you'll have a chance to talk to people. You'll find the place you'll want to dorm, and can make the switch.

*Hint* Talk to people about their dorm. You may encounter the person who finds his roommates "So boring and dull". That might be where you want to be -- the people may simply be pacing their fun with serious life pursuits, and not really dull.

Besides, your current roommates will have to buckle down soon, or they'll just run out of spending money and flunk out of classes. I which case, you win anyway.

My sister transferred out of her first college, she just couldn't get along with her roommates there, and saw no other options. She was a little hasty, but anyway, found a local college that suited her.

Now I went to the local branch of my college for 2 years, then transferred to the main campus, so I was more older, and more accustomed to what was expected of me academically, before I had to make the transition to college life. But, it wasn't a prefectly smooth transition, even then. There were things I wasn't prepared for.
