8 Things That Happen When Your Best Friend Is Also Your Roommate
Kennedy Muirhead

College is home to many beautiful things, one of which is the amount of people that you get to meet that you wouldn't get to meet otherwise. Maybe, if you're lucky, you'll even get to meet your best friend like I did! I'm double as lucky now because she's also my roommate. Rooming with your best friend can lead to a lot of fun situations that wouldn't happen if you roomed with a random!

1) WaWa runs are always on deck, whether it's 7 pm or 3 am, driving to that beautiful holy mecca is always an option...

WaWa is a rite of passage in New Jersey and if you can't take your roomie there at all times of the day, where can you take her?

2) Your room becomes a wasteland of clothes in the morning.

Living with your best friend also means living with a personal stylist and although it may seem kind of harsh when she says it, maybe she's right that you shouldn't go to class wearing high waisted jeans and a halter top with no bra.

3) Double the food!!!


There are really no boundaries when it comes to the two of you anymore, that means your food could possibly disappear, but how could you stay mad at her?

4) Rants are inevitable, and endless.

Whether it's about that bitch that took your seat in your 9:55 class or the professor who never grades your assignments on time, rants are bound to be a frequent occurrence.

5) You'll wake each other up frequently...

and at inconvenient times...when you have a 9:55 and your roomie doesn't have class, there could be some issues...

6) Speaking of issues, you'll bicker.

These little arguments will last about 10 minutes and are about the dumbest things imaginable. Some possible topics to bicker about are "is that mean girl actually Regina George or is she not that bad?" and "why don't you watch the Bachelor? It's a big deal" or even "how come all you eat is mashed potatoes?"

7) You'll always have someone to come with you around campus.

If she doesn't want to come with you to that frats fundraiser, or to print out papers at the libary, you can always be comfortable that she'll still tag along because she knows how badly you need her.

8) You'll support each other, but also be honest when you need it.

Be it about boys, clothes, family drama, or anything. Advice is always going to be flowing through your room, but you can't always sugar coat things. Sometimes you just need to give the blunt, honest truth about things and it will suck. But you need to know that in the end, you guys will be here for each other no matter what.

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.
