    It looks like I am heading to a boarding school in Pennsylvania so how is it?
    Do you get home sick?
    Are roommates easy to have?

    It depends on whether you like your home or not. And roommates suck.

    All I know about boarding schools comes from Madeline and Harry Potter. Suffice to say, it probably won't be quite like that XD. I'd picture it being like college dorms, except with a lot less beer pong and more fancy school uniforms.

    My mom went to a boarding school and liked it. Though, that made her kind of distant with her family.

    I went to a boarding school all 4 years of high school. It kind of depends on what kind of school it is. Mine was a religious school so it had a lot of crazy rules. But basically it's like college except the deans have more control over you. And roommates all depend on the person you get. I had a roommate I absolutely loved one year and another year I only went to my room to sleep.

    Depends on your character. I would personally hate living in those circumstances. I hate sharing and dealing with people in such a close proximity. I rather live with a pack of wolves.

    I was sent to a French-speaking all boys boarding school at the age of 5, although my mother tongue is English. I Stayed there all week and came home on weekends. This lasted my first three years of primary school.

    Good way to learn a language. Bad way to forge a relationship with my family, or maybe that was a good thing...hard to tell.

    Liked being with the boys though... :icon_wink

    I go to a boarding school in MA, and I actually really like it! My roommate is super cool, and isn't freaked out by my flagrant homosexuality. In fact, she's more active in GSA than I am.... I'm handling stress and work pretty well, and I don't feel too homesick. Thanksgiving holiday is soon, so I'm not worried.
