I was going to post this in the Accommodation bit, but the question is more to do with trust I guess so it's here instead.
Basically, when do you lock your bedroom at uni? Assuming your door has a lock, of course. Probably when going out, but when else?
More specifically, what did you do when you first moved into uni halls and didn't know your flatmates? After all, although it'd be very nice to trust them all straight away, they are essentially strangers that you're suddenly living with. For those of you without an ensuite, did/do you lock your bedroom door when you go to the shared showers? (Showers more so than toilets, since you'd take longer).
I'll be starting uni this year, and it's likely that I won't have an ensuite. I'm not overly suspicious or anything, but I might have the misfortune to be living with someone less-than-trustworthy and I'm not sure how I'd feel about leaving my door unlocked (again, particularly when in the shower). Surely I can't be the only one thinking this...It's common sense, isn't it? How does everyone else feel?
