20 Things I Forgot To Thank My Roommate For This Year

College isn't easy, and this is a given. What also isn't easy is moving in with a person you've never met before and trusting them not to steal your stuff or kill you in your sleep. Finding a roommate that you enjoy isn't always easy. It's not like you can test out living with someone before you come to school, especially if you choose to go random. Whether you chose your roommate on Facebook, went random, or knew them already, the fact of the matter is that living with someone is a whole different story.

It can be super hard to find someone who you can compatibly live with and who doesn't make you want to pull your hair out. What's even harder is finding a roommate who actually becomes your best friend. Some people get stuck with roommate they definitely can't live with, and others make a life long friend out of their roommate.

If your roommate has become your best friend without even trying, then the list will not only be relatable, but it will make you gush up about leaving your BFF this summer:

1. Thank you for crying with me when it's been a long day.

2. Thank you for always checking in on my life and showing that you actually care.

3. Thank you for not getting mad at me when I don't take out the trash for 3 weeks.

5. Thank you for letting me keep the lights on when I have to stay up studying till 3 am.

6. Thank you for letting me eat all of your food.

7. Thank you for knowing when all my exams and classes are and wishing me luck.

8. Thank you for all the times you've ran and got me something if I didn't feel good (or was feeling lazy).

9. Thank you for trusting me and letting me into your life as more than just a roommate.

10. Thank you for all of our inside jokes that make me laugh every time.

11. Thank you for hating and liking the same people as me.

12. Thank you for making sure my outfit and hair looks okay every morning.

13. Thank you for being careful not to wake me up when you get up earlier than me.

14. Thank you for all the times you've taken care of me when I needed you most.

15. Thank you for double checking with me before you do basically anything (even though you definitely don't have to).

16. Thank you for keeping all my secrets and letting me open up to you.

17. Thank you for accepting all the strange/abnormal things I do.

18. ...and for not judging me for eating 24/7.

19. Thank you for putting up with my odd napping hours.

20. Most of all, thank you for making our room feel like home.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
