Living with your best friends is probably one of the most fun and best experiences ever. But when you're living with a bunch of girls, there's so many pros and cons. Living with my best friends has taught me a few things on making life so much more enjoyable in a house full of women.
1. The drain gets clogged pretty quickly.
Gross, I know. But when you have one shower and three girls sharing it, you have to learn how to clean the drain. There's no denying that we shed so much, there's hair everywhere!
2. Shower times and schedules
When there is five of you, you're fighting for shower time. Especially when you have to factor in shaving time. So, it's a first come first serve for both the shower and hot water.
3. Fridge organization.
As much as you want to keep everything organized, and assign everyone a specific shelf, it doesn't really stay that way. Most of the time, you're either in a rush or super hungry you're just trying to eat, and you throw things back in the fridge. And sometimes you accidentally yell at someone thinking they took some of your things, only to find it two seconds later behind the butter. (My bad.)
4. Chore wheels.
This will be your best friend. In order to save you some arguments and yelling at 6 in the morning, chore wheels or charts are so easy to use and make everyone responsible for maintaining the cleanliness of the home.
5. Doing girl things.
Like going to Ulta, spending all your waitressing money from the night before on makeup and then coming home and dumping it all out and having a makeup session (my roommates and I may or may not be guilty of doing this).
6. No pants.
Let's face it, people love not wearing pants, and living with girls means that you don't have to wear sweats or do the dance to try to get your butt in thighs in those skinny jeans. Freedom!
7. Community closet.
You know the old line "I don't have anything to wear." Well, you can dump that excuse now, because you not only have your closet, but an additional four other closets to pick out the perfect outfit! YAS!
8. You'll always have someone to hang out with.
Unless everyone is out working, then you just picked the wrong schedule. But for the most part, there's always someone to hang out with or just sit in each other's company in silence.
