Moving back home after living on your own is essentially the worst experience ever .So many kids go ways to college and party too much and don't balance school work and once the parents see the report card they are forced to come home .After living on my own in Orlando Florida , doing the Disney College Program I struggled tremendously Being back home .The only good thing about moving back home is free rent and free home cooked meals . Trust me everything else about this arrangement is no Bueno . Here are my reasons why
1: Loss of freedom When I moved back home my parents were extremely opposed to my late night walks and adventures that I had become accustomed to . They were worried about my safety . 2: Social life Your social life will surely suffer . If you're coming from a college community you're used to finding parties by just walking out of your door . But once you move back home , goodbye social life . No one is home everyone else is still away at school because they didn't fuck up like you . 3: Community College So you couldn't get yourself together away at university Well we have a warm seat waiting for you at J.C.C (Just Community College ) and don't worry all of the other kids from your home town will be there . 4: Contribution This conversation will probably go like this " If you're going to live here you're going to have to start contributing " "To what !!!? " You don't want to have this conversation just contribute . 5: Getting laid We all know how easy it is to get laid away at college not so much when you're living at your parents in your empty hometown and you're sleeping in your makeshift room that your parents converted into a home gym since you went away to college . You do not want to do this . 6 : Loneliness You miss your Roomate .Having someone to constantly get into trouble .She would eat food with you at 4:00 am .Talk about boys with . She was basically your person 24/7. And now you have no one . 7 : Running into old friends . This conversation will go like this "Hey Kendra . I thought you went away to uni ? " You will make up a lie as to why you're back home and leave with a promise to "HMU " and see each other at JCC upon you walking away they will post in the groupme notifying everyone that you were spotted at JCC . 8: Yik Yak Home Yik Yak Sucks and you will not be able to fight the urge to set your herd back at school . This will inevitably depress you 9 : Avoiding family Questions This conversation will go like this "how's school ? " "Don't know " "Do you have a boyfriend yet ? " "Do you have a husband yet ?" "When are you going to done with school?" "When you find a husband auntie Tina." 10: Work Load You will work extremely hard to get your grades up and go back to uni or another internship . You will probably get a job too so you can save a little money ,contribute and have something to do besides binge watch Netflix . This is not the end of the world this will be a humbling experience for you and you will work your hardest to stay on top of your game so you are never forced to move home again .

THANK YOU!!! I too have had to move back home and it literally is awful! I feel like such a loser because I am so disconnected from all of my friends! It really is awful and makes it so hard to want to do well in school/makes you want to do super well so you can get back out on your own at the same time!! That is why I am so excited to be doing the DCP!
