My roommate has very quickly become my ride or die. We are scary similar in a lot of ways and have gotten damn near inseparable. It’s funny because we went to high school together and have lived in the same neighborhood basically all of our lives and had never become friends until now. This year, however, we have made up for all of that lost time. Leah’s my BFF and I am more blessed to have her in my life than she probably even knows.

Having a relationship like this definitely comes with a few guarantees, and things that Leah and I have noticed about ourselves…

1. You can finish each other’s sentences and basically read the others mind
2. You know each other’s Starbucks/Chipotle/late night pizza order by heart
3. You find yourself coming across gifs/funny videos that you have to send IMMEDIATELY because you’ll know she’ll find them just as funny as you.
4. When she’s in a bad mood, you’re in a bad mood.
5. TMI…but mother nature has you in sync
6. You feel more in a relationship with her than any boy in your life
7. And when a boy does come in your life he has to be approved by her
8. When the other has a hard test/bad day you have margs ready for her when she gets home
9. What’s yours is hers and vice versa
10. Sometimes people have thought you were actually dating
11. And because you’re the same person and life is weird, you’re always single/in a pseudo relationship at the same time
12. You'd rather take her to your sorority formal than a boy
13. Closets are always open to each other, no clothes are off limits
14. You have your favorite shows recorded and watching it before the other one is the ultimate betrayal
15. She’ll tell you when you look really, really hot and you look really not (with all the love in the world, of course)
16. She’ll put water, Advil, and a trashcan next to your bed when you come home from a night after getting a little too ~lit~
17. You’ll support each other’s bad decisions
18. You’ll cry together when life/school/boys/whatever is just too much
19. She’ll be your favorite road trip companion and the best car ride DJ
20. You’ll love each other more than any boy you ever thought you were in love with

Thanks for being the Christina to my Meredith.
