My advice!
Bring a pair of Adidas sandals for the shower.
Start going to church now and pray for decent roommate. |

Or doesn't, as the case may be 
Bring stackable crates, which can substitute for nearly any item of furniture and have storage space to boot.
And a sense of humor, some humility, and the ability to live in close proximity to the foibles of others.

Just wondering, what college are you going to, and by the look of your name, you seem like you are 14. I mean I'm 14 too and looking ahead, but just wondering.

Sex, Drugs and Rock & Roll!
At your age you can go to early morning lectures with a hang over and still pass so don't be scared of the odd midweek party!

I'm a junior in Highschool. I decided to do Early Admit to the University of Georgia, so I pretty much dedicated myself to there.
My birthday is September 2. September is the 9th month and my birthday is the second day.
Haha..keep the tips comin...

Learn that people, especially roommates, like to do their own thing.... And don't walk in on them when they are doing their own thing... if you know what I mean.
Also, know what your roommates 'preference' is, I know someone who found out the wrong way, the scars-you-for-life type of way. |

Heh, I'm in my last year of highschool right now and still haven't applied for college because I wasn't sure if I was going to graduate this year. I won't be living in a dorm if I do get in though, either my dad's place or living with some friends.

I went to a few college parties before, even though I wasn't even in college at the time. All I can say, is that some interesting things happened with a handful of women attending the party..
