Signs You And Your Roomie May Be TOO Close

Is there really such a thing?

Signs You And Your Roomie May Be TOO Close
Taylor Martinek

We've all heard the horror stories. The stories about the roommate from hell that wears your clothes and eats your food. The roommate that stays up too late and constantly has people in the room. But for every one of these roommates, there are good roommates. At the same time, how close is too close?

You dress each other

Her fashion sense is just so much better than yours.

You're not sure whose clothes are who's

So you didn't see your roommate before you left for class. Suddenly she shows up at lunch wearing your shirt. Do you care? No. You're wearing her sweatshirt.

All food is up for grabs

Anything you don't want her to have better be hidden well. If I see it, I eat it!

You have so many inside jokes.

Other friends usually stop listening when you two start using inside jokes in your conversation. I guess you just had to be there.

The only time you spend apart is in class

Hands down the longest hours of the day.

When they leave for the weekend and you realize you have no other friends

You may think you have other friends, until you are watching Netflix alone in your room waiting for your roommate to get home.

You are associated together

You constantly refer to you and your roommate as we, and so does everyone else.

If one goes, both go

No need to invite both of you, and invite to one is an invite for both.

There is no such thing as personal boundaries

You know all of her relationship, personal, and family issues and have helped her solve many problems. Your room is a safe zone where everything is tolerated and judgement is not allowed. Of course, you could never judge her, she knows all of your secrets too!

You couldn't imagine life with anyone else.

At the end of the day, she is your best friend, and what's better than living with your best friend?

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
