Preparation diminishes stress
■ Moving won't give you gray hair if you plan
ahead, manage your time and get informed
By Sandra Colton
for the Emerald
For many University stu
dents, moving time is
quickly approaching.
Whether it be from dorm
life to your first apartment,
or the big move from college
to career, stress can make
that transition more diffi
cult than it has to be.
“There are two parallels
between coming into the
University as a freshman
and moving out of the
dorms into an apartment,”
said Ron Miyaguchi, senior
staff psychologist at the
University Counseling Cen
ter. “You are going from less
responsibility to more re
sponsibility, and interper
sonal negotiation needs to
take place. Figuring out
how to get along with new
roommates involves negoti
ating skills. ...
“Communication is the
main problem students find
when moving into a new
living environment.”
In fall 1999, University of
Oregon Housing Office Oc
cupancy Data show that
3,243 freshmen moved into
University Housing. Adjust
ing to this new way of life is
difficult for many, as is the
time when students move
out of those living quarters.
“Students planning on
moving out of the residence
halls need to pay attention
to how much things really
cost,” said Katie Bryant, the
University’s assistant direc
tor of residence life.
Things such as utilities
and laundry facilities are of
ten taken for granted in the
residence halls. Students
need to think about de
posits and hook-up costs,
Bryant said.
Matthew Lieuallen,
ASUO housing advocate,
advises students who are
moving to “plan ahead and
check out places as soon as
they can. Students need to
get on the ball and get [mov
ing plans] taken care of early.
“Pressured for time and
money, students must be
aware of deadlines,”
Lieuallen said.
The four components of
stress are “the precipitating
event or condition, the set of
assumptions and the belief
systems we carry which de
termine our perceptions of
the event or situation, and
our responses...according
to the Counseling and Test
ing Center Web site.
“The most common thing
that students overlook when
moving are the most simple
things,” Miyaguchi said.
By underestimating the
amount of work involved in
moving and doing the move
all at once, students may
create unwanted stress.
“Transition to a new place
gradually is a lot less disrup
tive,” Miyaguchi said.
Some of the ways to cope
with the stress of moving are
to “relax, exercise, be more
assertive setting limits and
priorities, time management,
pay attention to sensory nur
turing, express emotions and
avoid self-medicating,” said
Linda Sherman, staff psy
chologist for the Counseling
Center. “The major focus is
on balancing social, physi
cal, mental and spiritual
needs ...T
Do as much preparation
as you can before moving,
Miyaguchi said.
“Implement strategies,
reminders and to-do lists,”
he said. “Moving compa
nies offer moving tips on
the Internet.”
Organizing your boxes by
using stickers that designate
which boxes to “Move
First,” “Move Last” or to not
move at all can make the task
of moving a lot smoother.
Miyaguchi recommended
leaving “the kitchen and
bathrooms to last, gradually
moving things, and taking a
step back to look at the bigger
picture if things get too
stressful.”
At the end of the year,
moving may also involve
transporting some unwant
ed items.
“We will be collecting
stuff for St. Vincent dePaul
and Food for Lane County,”
Bryant said. “This will re
duce the amount of un
wanted items for students,
as well as providing things
for charity. We are also try
ing to put on a garage sale.”
