The breakfast is an eye opener. Strange objects are found floating in your cereal. The orange juice tastes like watered down orange drink. The eggs are soggy. The toast is moldy. The silverware does not look clean.
Your mattress looks one hundred years old and feels like it is one hundred years old
Your roommates only talk about allergies, illnesses, and insect bites
