Don't get me wrong, living in a dorm can be a lot of fun. And for the first couple of years, it was great. I've always had great roommates who turned into wonderful friends, no complaints there. But there are just some things about living on campus that get old after a while.

1. Eating campus food

Listen, no campus has great food or the best dining halls, I get that. And there will always be those few staples that you love. However, eating the same food EVERY DAY for four years gets tiring, and to be honest gross.

2. Moving furniture around

If you're like me, staying in the same dorm all four years was your best bet. Mine had suite-style bathrooms, being the only real reason why I stayed in there. When you live in the same building for that long, you learn to know what set up works and what doesn't. I am done moving furniture around, it takes too much time and I have to put it back together at the end of the semester anyway, who cares if my bed is bunked for a few months?

3. Living on a floor with other girls

Most of the time, you'll be really close with the people you live on your freshman floor with. That's usually how you find your college friends. But then when you get to be a sophomore, junior, senior, no one talks to each other. Doors are always closed, and it's a less welcoming environment. It becomes more annoying than pleasant to talk to people while you're waiting for the microwave. Living in a dorm has definitely made me more antisocial.

4. Residential staff

All of the RA's I've had were great, especially freshman and sophomore years (Shout out to Becky!). But when you get to your fourth year of living in a dorm, the last thing you want to do is spend your Wednesday night doing a craft in the lounge and talking to those same people you make small talk with by the microwave to be polite. I'm sorry, I have a lot of homework to do and I'd rather be getting that done.

5. Lack of freedom

When you're 22 and finishing college, living in an apartment sounds infinitely better than living in a dorm. Especially at a small, dry campus like mine, there are some rules that get old after a while.

6. Sharing a bathroom

Although I said that we had suite-style bathrooms, that doesn't mean that there wasn't SOME bathroom drama. When you're living in a small space and sharing a bathroom with 3 other people, there's bound to be some "Did you use my shampoo?" or "It's your turn to take out the garbage!" conversations.

7. The. Microwave.

I'm sorry, but why is it so hard to clean up after yourself? We're adults here, people. Take a paper towel, a disinfectant wipe, SOMETHING and wipe up your oatmeal after it spills. I don't want my leftover wings smelling like Apple Cinnamon because you left a mess. Seriously, get it together.
