man i've stayed the night at several of my friends dorms when visiting and after leaving i was always glad that I had my own apartment. I'm not really a people person though. You're dorms actually sound like they're tolerable though. I think one of my friends was the same way where it was one big building with a open courtyard in the middle, each door opened to a hallway with 2 dorms on each side and a bathroom at the end of the hall. That wouldn't be so bad. My other friends had dorms that were like 20 or 30 rooms in a hallway. That shit was so annoying with all the people coming in and out and doing goofy shit.

I think the coolest dorm I've been to was my friend that was a senior and an honors student. Each dorm had their own bathroom and were super nice inside. Thats where I'd want to stay, heh.
