Living in an all-girls dorm is a little different than living in a co-ed dorm. When I found out I was going to be living in Voigt Hall, an all-girls dorm, I was nervous about drama. When you have over a hundred girls living together, it seemed like it would be unavoidable. I also envisioned everyone in my dorm being very social and becoming friends with everyone on my floor. While none of these necessarily happened, I have learned a little bit about what living with all girls is actually like.
The Pros
1. It’s cleaner. Boys are just messier creatures. It’s a fact.
Â
2. If you aren’t a huge sports fan and can’t tell a field goal from a home run, you don’t have to constantly hear people talking about it.
Â
3. You can walk around in baggy sweatpants and a ripped up T-shirt with no makeup without having to worry about running into that cute boy in your chemistry class.
Â
4. You can blast Beyoncé before going out and no one will complain because they’re probably doing the same thing.
Â
The Cons:
1. If you love watching sports, you may find a lack of people who love them like you do.
Â
2. There aren’t any cute guys to talk to.
Â
3. There is going to be some drama. With 100 girls living together it’s inevitable.
But we love it anyway!
