Roommates. We all have 'em. If you're like me you went into freshman year not knowing much about the person (or people) you would be sharing your living space with for the next year.

However, if you're lucky like me you will be so thankful every day for those strangers because they have quickly become some of your favorite people.

1. You always have someone to talk to

The great thing about living with multiple people is that there is almost always have someone you can talk to when something goes great, or wrong or even okay, even if a few roommates are not around.

2. You always have someone to hang out with

Whether it's just getting food at the dining hall or going out on the weekend, with multiple roommates you can always count on someone to be down for an adventure.

3. Sharing is caring

From food to clothes to Netflix accounts, if you need it there's almost a guarantee one of your roommates has it (and is willing to share with you).

4. Life talks come naturally

Even if you only met these people a few weeks ago you already feel like you could tell them anything about your life.

5. Their triumphs are your triumphs

When one of your roommates succeed, everyone is happy and supportive of them, therefore everyone succeeds.

6. You get to meet even more new people

If a roommate has friends that visit often, chances are they will eventually feel like part of the group

7. Separation Anxiety

You miss your roomies after only being apart for a few days (or a few hours).
