Going away to boarding school can be one of the greatest feelings since you're away from your parents, but that independence can be burden sometimes! Living alone has its perks but also comes with a lot of responsibilities most young adults don't experience until they go off to college. If you can relate to all of the points then you definitely experienced the typical boarding school life.
1. You mastered the art of laundry at a young age.
Laundry, what is laundry?
2. Your transition from high school to college was breezy.
Homesickness? Laundry? Same old cafeteria food? Bad mattress? Small closet space? Experienced it all.
3. You had to play sports even if you weren't athletic.
Mandatory sports made you stronger than ever and revealed your inner athlete
4. You know the struggles of lights out and the internet turning off at approximately 12:00 a.m.
You just wait for your dorm parent to leave so you can turn those lights on again and do your homework! And when you finally finish that homework:
5. You know how to tie a tie without even looking at yourself in the mirror.
Boys, you knew how to put yourself together, no matter whatever kind of day you were having!
6. Do you even follow the dress code, bro?
You definitely broke your dress code at least once or twice or maybe a couple of 100 times while you were in boarding school. And this is how you felt when no one figured out that you broke the dress code:
7. Having to had to endure two hours of study hall every night even when you didn't have homework.
The longest two hours of your life!
8. Your teachers follow the gossip as much as you do!
Privacy was a privilege!
9) Being dormed was probably the worst thing that ever happened to you.
When you don't get to see your friends who live in a different dorm for the whole night, you know you aren't going to have the greatest night. So much frustration.
10. And the next worst thing was having your phone taken away.
When your teachers or dorm parents take your phone away for walking around with it outside or being on it during study hall. It starts seeming like the world may fall apart.
11. You never ever trusted your food in the communal fridge.
And you finally decide you are never going to keep your food in that fridge ever again!
12. Your friends definitely took your clothes and your towel away from you at least once while you were in shower.
This prank never gets old!
13. You always had to ask for permission to go out, even if it was to the building 30 steps away.
14. You definitely had a an ex-boyfriend on campus and accept the fact that you had to see them everyday.
You will never get rid of them!
15. People think you went to a boarding school because you were a trouble maker at home.
Um, no. K bye.
16. You had a senior lounge.
No freshmen allowed. They shall stay or pass through the lounge at their own expense.
17. Despite the struggles, you met some of your life long best friends and they became your true squad.
You'll meet your true friends through being in a boarding school because they have been and seen you go through all of it, and vice versa! They will accept you and will not judge you for whatever decision you've made in your life!
