28 Things Your OCD Roommate Says

Having a roommate with OCD tendencies can be both a blessing and a curse. The curse could consist of you feeling the pressure that if you don't keep the room tidy, it could be a threat to their mental health. However, the blessing could be the fact that they always keep the room tidy and motivate you to do the same. Here are some of the things that come out of your OCD roommate's mouth on the reg.


1. I'm feeling very OCD.

2. Can you make your bed?

3. Does my make-up look perfect?

4. Are you sure?

5. Are you sure you're sure?

6. What's the weather tomorrow?

7. I have a headache, let me check WebMD.

8. Oh, we're going out tomorrow? Let me make a schedule for the day.

9. The room looks perfectly clean yet so messy.

10. Okay so I have my backpack packed, my clothes out, my homework done...

11. *Goes on to list out everything they completed to make sure they didn't forget anything.*

12. Can you just tidy up your side a little?

13. That is not a question.

14. It is an order.

15. I am your mother.

16. Not really, but clean up.

17. I think we could use a deep clean.

18. I just want to apologize for my OCD-ness.

19. I can't go to sleep in a messy room.

20. This room needs to look Pinterest worthy at all times.

21. I'm going to take the trash out (for the tenth time).

22. We need more cleaning supplies.

23. Can you help me fix the rug?

24. I'm just gonna color code my closet real quick.

25. *Someone not feeling well just left your room* WHERE IS THE LYSOL?

26. I'm just gonna set 37 alarms just in case my first one doesn't go off.

27. The toilet paper role is upside down.

28. I'm still feeling very OCD.


So living with an OCD roommate, you may get tired of hearing these frequently said sayings. Your room may be filled with several reminder sticky notes all over the room and you may be afraid of the wrath of your roommate if your side of the room is not up to par. But hey, at least your room is probably immaculate like 99.9% of the time. However those 0.01 times it is not clean can be quite the nightmare.

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.
