15 Things I Need To Thank My Roommates For

"True friendship multiplies the good in life and divides its evils. Strive to have friends, for life without friends is like life on a desert island... to find one real friend in a lifetime is good fortune; to keep him is a blessing."

I've been blessed this year to get amazing roommates and an "adopted" one too. College would not be the same without these gems. That being said, I don't give these girls enough credit. They're here for me 24/7 and while we constantly bicker, we always find a way to make it through. Here are fifteen things I definitely have to thank them for.

1. Listening to my heated rants

Sometimes it's midnight rants about genetically-modified foods, other nights it's boys and other everything between.

2. Staying up until early morning hours to be my moral support.

We all hunker down and drink coffee and bond over mutual hatred for homework.

3. Being the Duff in my selfies when I'm trying to look good

There's nothing to lose when your friend has a crush on a guy, so why not make her look best?

4. Being available when I lock myself out of our dorm

The key is usually on my desk... You guys are the real MVP.

5.Not judging me on my taste of music

Even when you really don't understand it.

6. Not hating me for turning every light on when I get ready in the morning

My morning person and your morning person don't get along, but you still love me.

7. Being my moral support when I replay every aspect of the conversation between me and a boy

Whether I've actually talked to the boy or not there might be something to overthink.

8. Reading into things just to make me feel better

"He touched your arm on the way to the Rot, it's almost ring by spring!"

9. Keeping the room neat - when I forget

Room check reps would cost me a fortune if it wasn't for you guys.

10.Being my Personal Stylist

"You can totally pull off red lipstick, plaid and checker does NOT go together, don't wear those shoes with those pants. What is that eyeshadow?"

11.Late night Walmart runs because I'm hungry

FOOD and a college budget don't go well together.

12. Morning Teeth and Toothpaste checks

"Do I have anything on my face?"

13. Eating lunch with me so I'm not alone

The Rot is a scary place without friends.

14. Not telling me "I told you so"

I usually deserve an " I told you so", but you guys don't say it.

15. Laughing with me

You guys are the best roommates a girl could ask for. Thank you for laughing with me, listening to me, and enjoying college with me.

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.

Fibonacci Sequence Examples: 7 Beautiful Instances In Nature

Nature is beautiful (and so is math). The last one will blow your mind.

Yes, the math major is doing a math-related post. What are the odds? I'll have to calculate it later. Many people have probably learned about the Fibonacci sequence in their high school math classes. However, I thought I would just refresh everyone's memories and show how math can be beautiful and apply to physical things everywhere around us with stunning examples.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.
