Living with your best friends is an amazing opportunity. One that you will probably not get the chance to do again so take advantage of it while you can.
I live in a house in Lexington that is right off of campus. It's kind of reminds me of the dogs that everyone refers to as "ugly cute". When you first see it, it is hideous, but if you squint your eyes until they are closed it is kind of cute, in a way.
While my house may not be the best on the outside, it is the inside of the house that makes it so special. And by the inside I am not referring to the interior architecture, that's not any better from the outside, I am talking about the amazing girls that live in my house.
I live with seven of the most amazing girls I have ever met and I am not sure how I could do college without them.
Their names are Molly, Jane, Carly, Maddie, Heather, Hannah, and Taylor.
They allow my life to constantly be filled with energy, crazy stories and lots and lots of laughter. While we all get along well, the one thing that makes our friendship work so well is how different we all are.
Molly is a broadcast journalism major and she is the stylist of the house, she has her own fashion blog, wants to be a sports broadcaster one day. She loves to take photos and videos and is our social media queen.
Janie is the hard-worker. I have never met someone who can do so many things in one day. From working two jobs to studying at the library she is constantly on the go and makes it look easy.
Carly is the laid back one of the house. Coming from someone who is always uptight and stressing, I envy her. She seems to always be able to find a way to make things seem okay.
Maddie is the confident one. It does not matter what life throws at her she always comes out on top and is rarely flustered by the issues she faces.
Heather is the carefree one. If I could trade traits with anyone in the house I think it would be her. I am the anxious one in the house and Heather is always level headed and optimistic.
Hannah is the spontaneous one. She is always down for an adventure, whether it is to another state or just to see if the ice cream machine at McDonald's is working you can always count her in to join you.
And lastly there's Taylor, or T, she is the mature one of the house. The one who has her life together. Somehow she is able to balance academics and a social life flawlessly.
Living with your best friends has its own problems but they are nothing when compared to the fact that the person asleep in the bed next to yours will be there for you no matter what.
Having so many different personalities in a house could cause chaos but for us, it is a perfect mix.
