It's actually really nice to see other people having an emotional time leaving home. When I left for uni I was very anxious and emotional but only ever heard people talking about how they were excited/not bothered. Also for anyone who is finding it more difficult it's good to remember all of the people/places you're going to miss are still there, you are going to see them again. When I left it felt very definitive until I went home for a weekend and realised nothing there had changed

[@annabel6575]

awhhh im so sorry i hope your ok! dw!

[@kelab4599]

That’s the thing though, is that you don’t know if you’ll ever see them again. Which is probably why so many people get emotional when having to leave their family/friends/loved ones. That’s why it is always good to keep in contact with them whenever you can.

Try using command hooks and letting them sit overnight before hanging things up on them. Also if you wipe the walls with rubbing alcohol before sticking anything to them it help things stick because sometimes the concrete walls are kind of slippery from the air

Leaving for college is heartwrenching. Just remember that, soon, you’ll be sad to leave college because of how much you love it THERE. Stay strong, keep your head up, big hugs. ❤️

[@KaylaAmar]

I love how you talked about anxiety and talking to people to help and things bc I feel like our generation (late 90s to early 00s) we grew up having to act like anxiety and depression didn’t exist and I’m so happy we’re not afraid to talk about it ! My grandmother doesn’t understand why I talk about a lot of things but everyone goes through things and I want people to know you’re not alone and it also helps me! ✨

[@tulipalonso7630]

For all my college freshman, Big Lots has really cheap outdoor string lights with plastic bulbs and they've lasted me three years so far! And they have white and brown strings to keep the aesthetic going :) As far as hanging tapestries, attach clothespins or binder clips to a thick command strip and clip those onto the tapestry. Curtains I don't have any personal experience with, but Lowe's sells magnetic curtain hangers and I've heard they work well! I hope this helps someone :)

tip for the concrete walls! try cleaning the walls with windex or a lil soap and water and letting it dry before sticking command strips/hooks. also make sure you apply pressure evenly for a few seconds when putting them up so they really stick!

[@Whydtheyaddusernames]

Hiya! So for hanging stuff up I suggest asking teachers/getting what teachers use. A lot of the time for lightweight things teachers will just use a good tape or sticky putty (the blue/green stuff from elementary school)! For heavier stuff and things you want up all year they sometimes use literal hot glue from a hot glue gun. (If you use hot glue please do research to make sure you prevent wall damage) Just research methods commonly used by teachers! Or maybe even try asking one of the RA’s or other people who live in dorms!

[@samordaz3783]

The part where you said goodbye to Becky really did it for me. I’m leaving for college next year and leaving my dogs is the thing I’m dreading the most.
