Roommates. Love them or hate them, you can't live without them. Freshman year of college can be a stressful time, but with the help of some pretty great roommates, live can be pretty great. Whether you were randomly assigned or knew them from high school, learning to live with new people in a new environment can be very challenging. After a few weeks, you can tell if the next 30 weeks are going to be great or torturous. Finding the perfect people to live with can be stressful, but once you know it, you know it. Living with your roommates will be like a new adventure everyday and there will be new things to laugh at all of the time. Your jokes and memories will be great in the moment and even better when thinking back on them. College is a time to find yourself and while that can be difficult and frustrating, having some good friends to go to your dorm with and lay on the floor and cry is one of the best stress relievers in the world. While finding new friends at school, knowing that you have a couple of friends in your dorm to go and hang out with and talk to about things going on in your life is great and a great support system. Having built-in best friends that you get to live with is great and exciting. Knowing that in ten years you will look back and laugh at all of the memories that you have together will be something entertaining and a hilarious way to reminisce. Living with people that you click with and rarely ever have conflicts with is a privilege that some people never get to experience, but when you have it, it is something amazing. To my roommates, thank you for putting up with me on my good, bad and ugly days. I love you guys and would not want to change anything, even if I could.
