The great thing about college is that you get to make a lot of choices. You get to choose your major, what clubs you are in, and you get to find the path to becoming who you want to be. One of the biggest choices you will make during these four plus years is who you live with.

Choosing who you live with can either enhance or ruin your first experience of living off campus where there are no RA's or parents constantly watching you. You can choose to live with new friends or old ones. Personally, I decided to live with people I knew from high school, however, when I told people they were both guys, I got some looks.

So let me answer some questions. One, no I'm not dating either of them (nor do I plan to). Two, no they aren't super gross or slobs (if anyone is the slob it's probably me and I try to keep it contained to my own room). Three, yes I do a majority of the cooking (for some reason people always ask that).

I chose to live with boys simply because it just felt right to me. Especially since I transferred in the middle of my freshman year and they were the two people I knew best. This isn't to say that I couldn't live with girls but I have always just found myself to get along better with guys. Blame it on my high school crew team where the majority were dudes. To me, it just always seemed like guys were more relaxed and not as passive aggressive. I've always respected people who just tell me like it is instead of sending snarky comments my way that I may or may not pick up on.

Living with two guys just seemed like the best choice for me. I don't mind cooking. Growing up my mom was always the one to do the cooking no matter how long of a day she had and I think I picked up that trait while being at school. Some might say that it's sexist that I'm the only one that cooks but I really don't see it that way.

My roommates and I have settled into a routine. One that consists of sitting on the couch at the end of the day watching "That 70's Show" and complaining about college. There are little drama and most of the time we aren't the ones directly involved. We don't keep tabs on each other even though we usually know where the others are. Coming home to the guys every day is just easy and when college classes are constantly throwing curve balls, it's nice to know what to expect when you go home.
