All everyone can talk about when you come back from spring break is where you want to live the next year. For most people, it consists of the same answer, "A quad in Watson with my friends!!!" But then we all realize that we can't all live in a quad in Watson, with all of our friends.

So then we all start to look at different halls and deciding which ones will be our second choice, third choice, etc. Though, when my friends and I all got our times this year, which were all on the second to last day, we quickly came to the conclusion that we might have to think of the unthinkable. We were going to have to live on South Campus.

Initially, it seems pretty surreal. Living in the one place that everyone will never shut up about how much they hate it. You start to think about how you are going to have to take the bus to come to main campus every day, risking being late to class, or being stuck on campus and not be able to go home throughout the day. You think about how you might be really far from the friends that you have made that are living on the main campus, and away from the sorority that you just joined.

Though, when everything starts to sink in and you process your fate, you need to start to think of some positive before you just get really sad. For me, one of the main perks was that we would be living in a 3-person apartment which is actually really cool. We each have our own rooms, a kitchen, a living room area, and most importantly a bathroom that we don't have to share with an entire floor!

I also began to get so excited because I get to live with two of my best friends, and that makes me so happy. I cannot wait to make memories and be able to tell my kids all the fun and dumb stuff that I did in my first apartment. This apartment means some new independence and even though it is on the infamous South Campus, I am beginning to think that we will actually survive.
