Life of a college student

Cleanliness is our daily necessity. Cleaning is voluntarily, after all everyone is old enough to take responsibility for his/her mess. There may be some house with cleaning assignments. Here in our house it is perceived that my responsibility is to take those heavy works cause I'm am the only make except my father. What is your responsibility in your house? Most probably I don't have any interest in arranging messy things. But I really appreciate on its results. Sometimes I also told my sister to arrange those messy stuff inside the house.

Self-Dependency

Bear in mind the sense of Self-Dependency. You're on your own now and alarm clock is your best friend. Do you remember your college days? For sure many of you here set alarm clock just to woke a specific and desirable time. Nevertheless, it's for you to decide whether you'll wake up early or skip your alarm clock calls in the morning.

In boarding houses, the owners will decide how much you'll pay. He also sets the house rules (or no rules at all). So, no need to worry because you can always make time for other activities. No need to make excuses in the name of fines because your landlord or landlady understands that you also have other embellishments to pay for at school.

I remember our boarding house seems to have excessive rules but boarders doesn't abide. There no room for curfew on us. You can roam everywhere and get back anytime. An advantage of having nor curfew is that you always have a bed to crawl into regardless of the time you get back to your boarding house.

Overtime work is becoming your significant excuse to other especially when you're getting inside the house. But, you better secure your own keys because you don't want to disturb others by time you barge into the house.

Proximity

School is school and home is home. We need a break from the workload we get from school. It's important to be able to unwind from the pressure the student's life brings, which is more attainable outside the campus. It's tough to handle things while we are in college. We take so much responsibilities whether inside the boardinghouse or and school.

If your parents came for a short visit, the are welcome for as long as you inform your roommates and landlord that they have visited. In my case my parents didn't take a move to visit me cause they trusted. I am a kind of person who always flee from trouble, so it is seldom you can see me encounter with arguments.

You may also bring in your friends for study sessions, projects or assignments. If sleepovers are allowed, but our rules in the boarding isn't okay to sleepover when you are boy but if you are a girl then you'll probably allowed. Haha ,😂 (chix boy among landlord). Typically, students made these several times especially when they have research and thesis. They strive just to accomplish there projects and research.

✓ Gadgets and Appliances

You can bring with your appliances of your choice provided you take full responsibility for it. An electric fan for a very hot weather, a rice cooker, cellphone and many simple things that matter to you are mostly welcome in boarding houses. After all, they bring comfort to an otherwise uncomfortable life, so why forbid?

They seem of little value, but they contribute to the growth of your college life. But do expect for additional charges, unless stated otherwise by the landlord or landlady. Gadgets and Appliances are indeed vital for a student. They need those stuff for survival without those gadgets and appliances their life seems to be harder.

Final thoughts

Finding the second home is one of the college struggle. Some students choose the dormitory because of the rules. Other choose to live in boarding houses to own more sense of independency and freedom. For most students, making leverage the advantages and disadvantages can get confusing and overwhelming. So we must also vigilant in choosing our second abode. Staying for how many years in unpleasant house isn't our preferrable way of living. We choose also where we are comfortable at.

The important lesson I learned in my college days is that I knew how to live independently. We have no parents to cook for our foods and to wash our clothes. We are trained to be an independent individual.

It's really important my friend we are comfortable with our second home because if not, it will be our distractions with our studies and in our life. Kaya yung una kong boarding house my friend umalis ako kasi hindi ako comfortable. Hindi ako makapagfocus kaya umalis talaga ako.
