A Letter To My Soon To Be Roommate

Cheers to new beginnings.

A Letter To My Soon To Be Roommate
Tumblr

One of the most terrifying things about college (other than college it self) is choosing to hit the "Random" button when finding a roommate. As soon as I did it, fear set in and it was real. All kinds of questions ran through my mind."What if we're nothing alike?", "What if she thinks I'm weird?", and "What if it's just plain awful?". Soon after that the prayers began and thankfully the Lord was good to me and gave me a really cool roommate! So, here is a letter to my future roommate.

Dear Roomie,

Well, we aren't freshman and here we are having the same fears and thrills as they are about: their roommate, trying to make the dorm room the cutest, moving away from home, and wondering how on earth they're going to make it. So I would like to start off by saying I am so excited for what this year has in store for us! I also would like to apologize in advance for all the pictures I'm going to make you take, but I'm a photography major so not much surprise there. I would also like to apologize for all of my bad and cheesy jokes, that I'll doubt you'll laugh at (it's okay if you pretend), or for the jokes you tell and I don't get because I can be oh so blonde. I also hope that you're up for a lot of adventures... because I hate not being busy. I am also slightly OCD so I might start cleaning up my stuff and just so happen to clean yours too, hope you don't mind! Something else I might add...homesickness is a real thing for me, so when I start to ball my eyes out because I miss home, hopefully you'll understand and make me feel at home!

I am looking forward to the late night talks and Netflix binges, with our endless amounts of coffee. Then I will have to apologize for how cranky I'll be the next day because I stayed up late...and I do not do well without eight hours of sleep. Speaking of sleep we will need a few fans and heaters, because some noise is good, and I am a morning person, who loves to drink coffee and listen to music loudly as I get ready. I should also say sorry for not being the most quiet person in the world, I'm a tad bit clumsy. I can't wait to send you endless amount of snaps of cute boys on campus (for me not you hahah) that I see, and tell you about the one I'm hard core crushing on in one of my classes. I hope you enjoy make up, clothes, shoes, and hair stuff as much as I do because any excuse to dress up is a good one, plus I have so much that stuff I have no idea how it's all going to fit in our shoe box of a room.

Even though you don't know much about me yet other than what I've said above, I will tell you I'm one of the most loyal people, I love to have fun, and I am a no drama kinda girl! So "Cheers" (with our coffee mugs) to a great first year at a college that is new to the both of us!

Love,

Your Roommate

P. S. I don't do well with throw up, but will hold your hair when needed. I also don't know how to do laundry so hopefully you do!

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:

Bruce Springsteen's Top 7 Lyrics

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.
