A Letter to My Roommate(s)

Now, there isn't necessarily a 'perfect' roommate, but mine are pretty close.

A Letter to  My Roommate(s)

By the time senior year roles around, most have senioritus pumping through their veins. While applying to top choice schools and partaking in all the 'senior' things is amazing, most seniors are just read to be finished and get their diploma. To go with applying comes housing assignments- getting the perfect roommate. Now, there isn't necessarily a 'perfect' roommate. But, some have gotten pretty close.

I was blessed to have three amazing people to live with: Krista, my bathmmate, Savannah, and Kim. Here is a letter to the three perfect roomies.

Dear Roommates,

I can't tell you all how amazing it is to live with you. As a younger freshman in college, Savannah and Kim you both have been so helpful and kind with words of wisdom to just overall support. With you both being older than I am, you have given me insight and advice that has been so helpful to me. From homework help, personality test trials, to my relationship with God. I love all the bonding time we have, drives to Qdoba, laughing over donuts to picking a show we are gonna watch as a house. I love the immediate respect we have for each other.

Krista, where to even start. With both of us being honors freshman, I had the pleasure of meeting you in February, and then again in July. In the last four weeks, we have gotten so close. We have gone though nearly every stage of a friendship in such a short time and I love it. I know sometimes I probably am not the easiest to live with, whether I am camped out in your room talking about boys when you really only want to go to sleep to asking million times for my essay to be edited. I could not have asked for a better person to share a living are with.


If I don't have the best people to live with, I don't know how it could get any better. I was so fortunate to have three wonderful, hilarious people to get to know. So thank you all for the laughter we have shared so far, and for the times to come.

In case you're unaware, "resting bitch face" is the term used to describe when a person's natural, expressionless face makes it look like they are mad at the world. Whether they are walking down the street or simply spacing out thinking about what to eat for dinner, it's very easy for others to assume that this person is either upset or mad at them. Because of this, those of us with Resting Bitch Face (RBF), and especially us women, have all experienced many of the same situations and conversations, including:

We've all had a crush before. Whether it leads to something or nothing, the process has all been the same. The awkward feelings, the stalking, and the stress of trying to keep this huge secret. The feeling of becoming a total spazz is something that cannot be avoided, and the most spazzy family that can relate to this feeling is the Belcher's.

At the tender age of 18, we are bestowed with the title of “adult.” For 17 years, we live under the rules and guidelines of our parents, school, and government, and to stray from any of those rules or guidelines marks us as a rebel. At 18, though, we must choose which college we want to go to or what career we want. We are allowed and encouraged to vote. We can buy lottery tickets and cigarettes. We can drop out of school, leave our household, and do other "adult" things. At 18, we start down a path of thinking for ourselves, when for the entirety of our lives other institutions have been mandated to think and do for us.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.
