50 Things You're Missing About Your Roommates Right Now

I was lucky enough to spend a few short days with some of my college roommates before we move back. In that time, I realized how much I really missed those girls and how much I can't wait to move in with them again. Here are just some of the amazing benefits of your roommates that you're craving right now.

1. Dragging them into your bed when they try to wake you up.

2. And proceeding to cuddle them as you go back to sleep.

3. Cooking together.

4. Giving up on cooking and eating junk food instead.

4. Watching random YouTube videos.

5. Acting like a little kid to annoy others.

6. Acting like a parent when the others are being annoying little kids.

7. Movie marathons.

8. While cuddling.

9. Making unnecessarily long SnapChat stories.

10. Midnight talks.

11. 1 a.m. talks.

14. 2 a.m. talks.

15. Crashing in the same bed at 3 a.m.

16. While cuddling.

17. Tweeting inside jokes and quotes that no one else would understand.


18. Arguing like an old, married couple.

19. Always having someone to talk to about your day.

20. Always having someone to complain to about your day.

21. Having a second closet (for roommates of the same size).

22. Having someone to ask about your outfit before you go out.

23. Having someone to give you life advice.

24. Planning awesome adventures to have in the future.

25. Even though you know you'll just end up staying at the apartment.

26. Probably at least two of you cuddling, tbh.

27. Comparing your home lives.

28. Explaining things about your home town like they're foreign to the other person (check out Mary-Elizabeth Esquibel's "When The South Met The North" article for more information).

29. Splitting junk food so it doesn't seem like so many calories.

30. Going to the gym together.

31. Swearing that going to the gym together was so great and you should do it more often because you feel so alive and got to bond.

32. Giving up on that whole gym thing because they sell Ben & Jerry's right downstairs and you can bond together over that, right?

33. Having someone's shoulder to cry on when you miss home.

34. Cuddling with them when you're crying about missing home.

35. Boy/guy talk.

36. Girl talk.

37. Talking about your neighbors.

38. Dancing montages.

39. Performing songs at the top of your lungs.

40. Laughing when you hear your neighbors doing the same thing.

41. Shouting when they're on the phone with their parents. ("Mary, put your pants on!")

42. Coming home to a group of people you love seeing.

43. Having someone that will always read your papers.

44. Even if it's after midnight.

45. (Thank you, Christine.)

46. Having someone who doesn't care that you don't wear pants to bed sometimes.

47. Because chances are they probably don't always wear pants to bed, either.

48. Living with someone who is going through the exact same transition as you.

49. And helps you figure it out along the way.

50. And will always be happy to cuddle you when you need it.

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.
