Dear Roomie,

Remember how before we made being roommates official we were both afraid the other wouldn't want to room together and were afraid to ask each other? That's when I realized we were both basically the same person.

During welcome week, we instantly became close. I was so nervous and scared to start this new chapter of my life but you introduced me to your friends and made me feel more welcome than anyone else. You helped me get acquainted with everything and made life easier and I couldn't be more thankful for that.

There have been ups and downs but we've always managed to work things out in the end. You've seen me at my worst and you've dealt with me in my worst mood possible and yet you've stuck around longer than most people would've. I'm pretty sure you deserve some type of reward for that or something.

With living with you comes adventures on the daily. From sitting on the floor at 3 a.m. eating pizza rolls in our underwear to rearranging our room in the middle of the day just because we were bored, there's never been a dull moment.

Thank you for laughing at my terrible jokes (yes, this includes the "yo ho will get sleighed" one), listening to me rant about almost everything and everyone, going on adventures with me, supporting me no matter what decisions I make, letting me write the dumbest things on the dry erase board that's on our door, making me laugh until I can't breathe but most importantly, thank you for being one of my best friends.

You're one of the most kindhearted, open-minded, opinionated and easy going people I've ever known. You're beautiful inside and out and I hope one day I'm at least half the person that you are. I know you're going to do great things and I can't wait to see what you accomplish.

I'm so thankful for you and everything you do for me. So, thank you for choosing me as your roommate and thank you for making my life more entertaining. You've made both college experience and my life so much better just by being a part of them. I don't know what I would've done without you.

I promise to always have your back, laugh at you when you fall (this includes falling while walking AND falling out of bed), laugh at your jokes, be here when you need to rant or need a shoulder to cry on, never let you do anything stupid alone and make you pizza rolls when you're too lazy to get out of bed and walk the 5 steps it takes to make them.

Here's to more adventures, late nights and laughs with you. I can't wait to see what else we manage to get ourselves into next semester.

With Love,

Your Roommate
