To My Roommate, Thanks For Being The Most Normal Roommate I’ve Ever Had

I’m probably the one with all the red flags.

To My Roommate, Thanks For Being The Most Normal Roommate I’ve Ever Had
Clarisse Meyer

Girl, bless you honestly.

I’ve never been more thankful to live with someone in my entire college experience. I’ve had my share of suitemate drama, fake friends and fights while sharing a living space with other girls and when this year rolled around I was kind of over it. I never wanted to deal with the petty sh*t of people not liking each other, passive-aggressive group chats and straight up yelling at each other that was my past year's experience. You probably don’t want your roommate to be just like you, but it’s pretty awkward when everyone’s being extra about their issues with each other.

Pro tip: Notice the red flags when searching for a roommate!!!

I just wanted to chill this year, save money and live on campus. I’m sorry that a series of misfortunate events and a building without an elevator lead you to living with me, but I’m just thankful the girl with cute decorations and a southern accent turned into the best roommate I’ve ever had.

Sorry, girl — I never plan on sharing a room again, but since we’re sharing our cozy little room for the rest of the school year I’m happy I can spend it with a gal you loves Taylor Swift as much as I do and appreciates a good venting session like I do.

So thanks a million times for being normal — you rock. Thanks for not being a shoulder to lean on when I’m having a bad day and thanks for being pretty clean and owning a nice vacuum because let’s be honest, that matters.

Next year when I don’t see you every day I want you to remember that you’re pretty freakin’ cool. There are going to be red flags with people you meet, so watch out and if all else fails I got you because you’re the coolest roommate I’ve ever had.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
