Moved into my dorm

Awesome, I love how you in USA have dorms

We don't have them, here :/

I get to move in mine saturday. Freshman got to move in yesterday. Can't wait for my super fast internet.

1 more year till college for me

Nice! I'd probably have to repack my air mattress - I know the mattresses at my school feel like you are sleeping on a flat rock.

You brought a television? My essentials are:

- computer (& fifty thousand cables - ethernet is important)
- one pot, one pan, one lid that fits both, pair of chopsticks, 2 knives (butter and cutting), cutting board, one bowl, one plate
- toaster oven (ooooo!)
- chest freezer (much cheaper than getting takeout, but a bitch to move back in and out - I really should put some coffee in it to deodorize)
- craft supplies
- knapsack

Why not? You guys are missing out! Living on campus is a fun experience.

I'm a freshman . Speaking of super fast internet, I was able to download my Mass Effect in 30 minutes and its a 10GB game. Thank you 6.3MB/s!

I got some of that stuff except for the kitchen items. We don't have a kitchen in our dorms since we are freshman. Though our dorm does have a community kitchen....probably not going to use it.

Yes the mattreses are terrible here....way to flat. It's uncomfortable. And I don't watch TV...the only reason I have the TV is so I can play my PS3 and Wii. Plus it doubles as a PC monitor.

Move in next Friday to start my Junior year, so pumped for it. I remember my freshman year, though, and it's pretty similar to what you've described. People and their massive TVs/sound systems was strange, but... those are the people to butter up to. Not be close friends, but keep 'em at arm's reach.

Also: get a mattress pad. It makes the bed SO much more comfortable and it should be relatively cheap.
