Living with somebody who you don't know is risk, you have no clue about this one habits, etc, and sometimes you can get annoyed about his/her behavior. Despite living with a family can be great, you have also to behave yourself like this family way of life. It's hard to tell what's really better or not, it depends on the people/person who's living with you. If I am a foreign student, I take the risk. Furthermore, if I don't like the person/people I only can make do stuff because I'm a foreign and it makes thing more difficult, I think soAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11252689796520242213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1640976037544204748.post-71870326816210779502018-10-10T02:11:02.268-06:002018-10-10T02:11:02.268-06:00I think college dormitory is better.

...Which is better? Living in a dorm room or at home<br />I personally never experienced living in a dorm room. I think that both things have pros and cons. The pros of studying and living at your house are lot. Let us start by saying that you are with your family and you can save a lot of money by eating homemade food. Another good idea for you to stay at home is that if you are sick, you can recover and your family is going to help, but if you are at college and you are sick, the only thing I can say is good luck! One last pro for living at home is that you are going to get less distracted and you are going to have less pressure on you. One of the biggest cons is that you are going to waste a lot of time driving there and you will probably be late for your first class. So now, I am going to tell you the pros of living in a dorm and the first one I can think of is you are going to have a social life. Nor like home, you can talk with your friend in real life a lot more often. One other pro is that you are not going to be late for class…well unless you oversleep which can happen if you live at your house too. You will probably find someone with who you can learn your lessons too, which will most probably not happen at home. Now the cons of living in a dorm room are lot. There is one that everyone knows-a lot of noise. Let’s face it, you will probably have a hard time studying for a test, while in the next room the students there are listening too loud music, which is going to distract you several times and it will mostly give you a headache. One other con is less privacy. You for sure are not going to be able to lay on your bed with your pajamas and sing something or just do something simple like dress and undress.<br />Common Peoplehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16894770216117391634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1640976037544204748.post-24040643349231121142017-12-21T06:59:57.342-07:002017-12-21T06:59:57.342-07:00i think maybe we live in homestay for first year c...i think maybe we live in homestay for first year college, while we can find informations about the college dormitory. then in the next year we make decision. is that college dormitory convenience or not for us?Bagus Sudewohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07708519914181585135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1640976037544204748.post-26387777555578362562017-12-11T21:10:57.031-07:002017-12-11T21:10:57.031-07:00Everyone has their own preferences whether to stay...Everyone has their own preferences whether to stay in the dormitory or stay home with their family especially for university students. In my opinion I would rather choose to live in the dormitory than to stay home with my family.I say this for several reasons; First, to stay in the dormitory is I have all my means and time to focus on my studies. For example instead of spending time travelling by the bus to go to school to stay in the dormitory is I can spend that time to prepare and study more of my lessons.<br />Secondly, from my experience I learned how to become more independent like doing my own chores preparing and cooking my own food and washing my own laundry. Moreover, I also practice self discipline like what time to go to bed in the night and when to wake up. On the otherhand, I can also make time to talk with my roomates in this way I can improve my English communication skills better and at the same time making friends with them as well. <br />Thirdly, staying in the dormitory helps me to become better person especially for my social life because of meeting new friends and learning new things from them which otherwise I cannot learn that from staying home with family.<br />In conclusion, to stay in the dormitory gives me a freedom to learn things by myself and how to get along with other people and learn from them and that's why I can say that this is one way to improve my English communication skills.Nolinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1640976037544204748.post-90455101713379486582017-11-27T10:54:43.476-07:002017-11-27T10:54:43.476-07:00In my opinion the homestay is better because is an...In my opinion the homestay is better because is an different experience.

Because when I lived with a family, I couldn't choose what kind of food I wanted to have. Plus, two small kids and the host fater is very nosiy for watching the sports channel on TV even the mid night.<br />One day, I ate too much for lunch then, the host mother told me I had no dinner on dinner time. It was hard for me to go shopping food at midnight because no walking distance to any food shops, of course no transportations so, I had to wait until next day without eating food at the day.<br />I strongly feel like homestay is just business in Australia. Most of them don't care about students... they just think about money only.<br />If you live in Dorm, you can get freedom... you can eat whatever you want to and you can invite your friends there, plus, you can make a alot of friends there. That's fabulous.<br /><br />I never recommend to everybody to live with a family because they are just doing for money.<br /><br />I would like to hear your opinion.<br /><br />Cheers.
