Hi all.
I have a big decision to make and have been thinking about it for 2 month or so and haven't figured it out yet.
I am studying at a university. The town itself is not that big (to American standards), about 1.5 miles (2.5km) in diameter. My campus is like half a mile out of town. Till now, my parents paid for the rent of a dorm room cause we lived in another town. The dormitory is almost on campus, very close to the lessons, but out of town, like the campus.
But about three months ago, we moved from the city we lived in to the city where I'm studying. Now we have a house at the opposite side of the city (in the suburbs too). From there, it's about 1.5 miles to town center (where the chicks are) and 3.25 miles to the campus.
The question is: do I keep living where I was living or move back in with my parents? If I keep renting, I'll have to pay half the rent on my own, so I'll have to work on saturdays and even then, I'll be financially challenged. If I move in with my parents, there will be less privacy like in freedom. And it's pretty far to the classes (which start almost every day at 8.30 AM).
I've been thinking about it a long time. Sometimes my preference swings to home, sometimes to the dorm. Could you give me some tips/opinions/whatever will help to find an answer?
