5 Things That You And Your Roommates Do Without Realizing
Tatiana Vavrikova

Having roommates in college is probably one of the most interesting aspects of college.

You live with these strangers for a few months at a time so you should expect some weirdness to occur. I find it to be quite enjoyable. Living with them, they end up knowing more about you than you think. They can pick up on your emotions. They know whether you are mad, sad, happy, or even super pissed off. If they do see you pissed off, then they know the cure to make you laugh. Here are five ways that your roommate can make your day:

1. They know your embarrassing moments

They know your most embarrassing moments considering they spend the most time with you. When you are feeling down, they can easily bring it up and get a rise out of you. Next thing you know, you guys are laughing it off.

2. You most likely watch a show together

You guys all have that special TV show that you watch together and obsess over. You may even have multiple shows you both can't get enough of. Make sure that you don't watch it without them. They may stop talking to you for a few hours and I could attest to that.

3. Dinners

Usually, it is everyone fends for themselves, but at least once a week, oddly enough, you guys are all together. Might as well have dinner together. It is even more fun if it was planned because then you can start trying new recipes and dishes. Everyone usually eats something that the other person never tried before.

4. Homework parties

Everyone bring their homework to the common area and let's get cracking. Sometimes, it is easier to do homework with other people. Seeing other people get their stuff together will hopefully allow you to do the same.

5. Late night chats

You stay up all night gossiping without even realizing the time. Getting to know each other and learning new things about each other is always a good time. These are the most fun because one moment it is, "What is your favorite food?" and the next question would be, "Who would you sacrifice?" No topic is safe.

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.
