35 Things That Happen When You Have A Lot Of Roommates

Whether they're random or your best friends, roommates share a special bond with you. Living together means seeing each other at your best and worst, knowing each others favorites and dislikes, and making memories that you don't have with just anybody. The more roommates you have the more hair you have all over the apartment, the more loudness you have distracting you from homework and the more people you have to have fun with. Here are a few of the things that happen when you have a lot of roommates.


1. There are shoes everywhere.

2. Also hairballs everywhere.

3. LITERALLY EVERYWHERE, in the shower, in the bathroom, in the kitchen, in the washing machine, on the couch.

4. You battle over what the temperature should be.

5. Everyone has a designated shelf in the fridge and cabinets.

6. But there is still never enough room for all your food

.

7. You go through community food items real quick, like butter and cream cheese.

8. You run the dishwasher every other day.

9. You always happen to want to do laundry when someone else is.

10. So many closets to pick from.

11. When one roommate gets sick all the roommates get sick.

25. You have a system to know who is home and who isn’t like a key rack.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from.
