Which Is/was Better: Dorm, Room For Rent Or Apt?

[shodandille]

Well right now I live in a house with a few other girls. I think it's the best set up because at least I get a real house with a laundry room, a kitchen, etc. but the rent and the utilities are split between a number of people. It's ideal.

hindi ko naexperience itong ganito.. though gusto ko maexperience dati. ung school ko kasi walking distance lang sa bahay. kapitbahay ko nga halos boarders na nagaaral din sa school na pinapasukan ko.

hindi ako pinayagan mag rent nung college kaya tiniis ko ang uwian araw-araw amp. nakaranas lang ako mag dorm nung nagrereview for the board exam na binagsak ko naman nyahaha. i used my own savings from my baon pa nga nun. P2250/month, walking distance from my review school so it was very convenient plus malinis yung dorm. i enjoyed my independence and freedom nun, ako nag grocery natuto ko magtipid tuloy like instead of buying gardenia eh yung ordinary slice bread na lang hahaha. natuto ko maglaba as in nagkasugat-sugat pa kamay ko kasi first time pati pag make ng bed natuto ko, tinuruan ako nung OC roommate ko hehehe.

ngayon balik ako sa poder ng nanay ko wehehe but i'm planning of moving out, and this time apartment naman syempre target ko.

 

maganda sa dorm may landlady, may curfew, may rules basically. so kahit pano mapapanatag loob ng mga magulang mo, at ikaw din.

 

ayoko ng bedspace, nakakatakot hehe saka para kang nakikitira sa 1 pamilya halimbawa. basta hindi ako comfy kaya kahit may kamahalan dorm nun for me, i still took it.

syempre own room for privacy...

During colleage, I stayed in a boarding house so I had room mates. Pero mas masaya kung shared apartment / condo - kasi walang privacy syado sa boarding house. I remember nung nagka-curfew yung boarding house, our board mates left a window open so we had to climb the roof to get in. Theres no crap like that in apartments.

I prefer apartment para hindi mahirap makisama sa iba...

Dormitory ako for 4 years during college. Sobrang nakakatuwa mga kalokohan ng mga girls dun. Para makapuslit ng red horse, nilalagay nila sa loob ng water jag, kinakaibigan ang guard para maka eskapo sa gabi pag may date. LOL!

 

I miss those days.

nag-dorm ako buong high school and college years ko (promdi kasi).... masaya at magulo sa dorm.... halos lahat na katarantaduhan naranasan ko sa dorm.

 

hindi ko pa naranasan ang mag-rent ng isang room.... ayaw ko kasi.... mas gusto buong apartment, bahay o condo na lang.... mas maraming space, may privacy, and you can do almost anything you want.....

 

naranasan ko na ang mag-boarding house.... masaya at magulo din lalo na kung coed.... marami ang chance na mamboso.... hehehe.....

 

sa ngayon, i'm renting an apartment.... alone.... kasi nasa canada na ang utol ko.... total privacy talaga.... at kompleto naman sa gamit.....

renting an apartment...so you can have theplace to yourself.

early years, dorm was better. daming kalokohan. later in life, mas ok ang apartment para masolo naman at tahimik.

[josol9]

all guys dorm. dati ang motto ng tenants dito, rules? meron dito nun? ngayon may time permit na at strict na sa pinapapasok.

I think it really depend on whats convenient for you.. I stayed in an apartment with my sister during my highschool days.. It was convenient because my mom can visit anytime and can even sleep over. I got to learn how to cook,wash clothes, iron clothes and basically the regular household chores.. In college, my mom wants me to stay in a Dorm exclusively for girls. She has some reason and one of which is it is being run by nuns so they can look after me since its my first time in manila. Another is its a board and lodging so i can focus on my studies rather then preparing for food and all that stuff.. It was a good dorm, i met most of my closest friends there and had wonderful memories.. I miss ICLH... :( In Graduate school, I also stayed in a Dorm near the school.. It wasn't like my former dorm. People there was busy bee.. We don't even know the occupants on the next room.. Im currently staying in an apartment alone. Boring but I think for my age now i don't need "Curfews" (for my extracurricular activities)... :lol:
