After living with your roommates for a few months, boundaries are pretty much non-existent in your household.

1. You crawl into bed with them.

Even under the covers. After Saturday afternoon festivities, you crawl into your roommate's bed once you get home. Obviously, you share your Will's and wrap yourself in her comforter while watching your Snapchat stories together. Best part? Neither of you think it's weird.

2. You're their second mother.

You embody a maternal instinct for your roommate. You know all of the things to make them feel better. And you know something is up when she isn't acting like herself. Allergies? Second shelf to the right dude, I got you.

3. You are greeted enthusiastically...

...every single time you come home, even though you were only in Calc for an hour and twenty minutes. Separation anxiety.

4. Their significant other loves you just as much as them.

There is no such thing as third-wheeling. You know too many details about their relationship. Sushi Nara tonight? Table for three.

5. What is mine is yours.

You don't ask to borrow their bandeau and sweater, you just take it. But it's OK, because you basically have one giant closet. She'll let you borrow anything, even the special scarf her grandma made her.

6. When you arrive home, a little looser than normal.

They know the routine, pretzels, water, pillow for the bathroom floor. Take her phone, Tom does not need to know how much she loves him.

7. No judgment on appearance.

You come downstairs with your hair standing straight up and no pants on, every morning. She encourages you to wear that way-too-short-of-a dress out. In fact, she'll even be caught dead in Starbucks with you in last night's clothes.

8. You're blunt with each other.

There's no passive aggressive roommate tension. If she does something that bothers you, you tell her straight up. Storming in and yelling at her to clean her mac 'n' cheese bowl in the sink is the usual, but normal routine. You tell it like it is.

9. You finish each other's drinks, food, sentences.

The leftover Chinese in the fridge, she brought it home for you. You share drinks at the bar, no need for two straws, you are past that point.

10. Your inside jokes have gone so far...

...that people have completely stopped following you on twitter. No one gets your Instagram caption, and people can't hold a conversation with the two of you together.

11. You know way too much about your personal problems.

No need for explanation.

12. You text them when you're in the same room.

If they are upstairs studying while you're cooking dinner, communication hasn't stopped. A constant conversation is going, even when you're one room apart.

13. You didn't know being TOO close was a thing.

Between walking around in your underwear and picking out which flavor Starbursts she doesn't like, it never crossed your mind that maybe you have no boundaries.

But being too close is okay with you two.

6 Things Owning A Cat Has Taught Me
Liz Abere

Owning a pet can get difficult and expensive. Sometimes, their vet bills cost hundreds of dollars just for one visit. On top of that, pets also need food, a wee wee pad for a dog, a litter box with litter for a cat, toys, and treats. Besides having to spend hundreds of dollars on them, they provide a great companion and are almost always there when you need to talk to someone. For the past six years, I have been the proud owner of my purebred Bengal cat named Spock. Although he's only seven years and four months old, he's taught me so much. Here's a few of the things that he has taught me.

It's fun to see all of the selfies on social media, they are everywhere. I see pictures with pouty lips, duck lips and pucker lips. I see smokey eyes, huge fake lashes and nicely done nose jobs, boob jobs and butt lifts. Women working out in spandex, tiny tops and flip flops. I see tight abs and firm butts, manicured nails and toes, up dos and flowing hair. "Wow", I think to myself," I could apply tons of make-up, spend an hour on my hair, pose all day and not look like that. Maybe I need a longer stick!"

Ancient Roman Kings: 7 Leaders of Early Rome

The names and dates of the reigns of the first four kings, as well as the alternation of Sabin and Latin names, are more legendary than historical. The last three kings, of Etruscan origin, have an existence which seems less uncertain.

It is evident that all this is only a legend although archeology shows us little by little that these kings if they did not exist as the ancient history, describes them, have at least in the very Outlines were real as chief of a shepherd’s tribe. The period when kings ruled Rome could estimate at 245 years.
