10 Moments You'll Understand If You're Too Close With Your Roommate As Told By "Friends"

Friends HD Wallpapers, Desktop Pics

I'm very lucky to have an awesome roommate, who chooses to hang out with me even when she doesn't have to. We have the same friends and interests, so we're literally together 24/7. When you're with someone that much, you can't help but relate your relationship to your favorite squad of TV best friends that give an accurate portrayal of the conversations that are bound to come up.

1. When you debate where to go for breakfast/lunch/dinner for the 100th time...

Pizza is the only true common ground.

2. When they tell you some juicy gossip from their lives that happened less than 5 minutes ago...

When you're with someone so much, updates every 5 minutes are commonplace.

3. When you're just having one of those days...

"You'll NEVER believe what just happened..."

4. When you're trying to make plans that involve other people...

Best part is your list of hate is usually the same.

5. When you do no work over the weekend but you're in it together...

As long as you're in it together right?

6. And then you're both up until 4 AM on Sunday night, asking your past selves...

No positive influence whatsoever.

7. When you are so yourself around them that you feel like this most of the time...

No one will hear your unfiltered thoughts more.

8. When you're trying to get them to procrastinate with you...

Homework is a tomorrow problem.

9. When they want you to support their problematic decisions...

You end up supporting them in the end anyways.

10. When at the end of the day, you couldn't imagine being attatched at the hip with anyone else...

Here's to the roommates who become best friends.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

You can't just go to your room to take a nap in the middle of your classes.

Having to spend all your extra cash on gas for your car.

Speaking of money, you probably don't have a meal plan so you're forced to scrounge up some change or mooch off of your friends.

It can be harder to maintain the friendships you make with people from class.

Finding a parking spot.

It can be harder to be involved on campus because between your one, two, or three jobs and school you don't have much free time.

When you try to be super involved on campus, it can kill your sleep schedule.

It's impossible to do homework at home, but staying on campus isn't an option sometimes.

There are surveys and events that you can't participate in because you're a commuter.

Group projects are the bane of your existence.

Traffic.

Your backpack rivals that of a survivalist trekking in the woods.

Driving all the way to campus to find a note on the door of your classroom saying class was cancelled.

Because have you ever had to endure grilling your foot on a George Foreman?

1. When he just wanted bacon from his George Foreman grill

2. When he had money (and Jan) issues

3. When he got upstaged at Phyllis' wedding

4. When he unintentionally saved Meredith from rabies

5. When he wore a "bisexual" suit

6. When he had to apologize to Jesus

7. When his GPS drove him into a lake

8. When he had to deal with Ryan as his boss

9. When he couldn't fulfill his most generous empty promise

10. When this happened

11. When he struggled with a X-Mas break up

12. When he had to defend his generosity

13. When he threw a classy Christmas party for Holly but she had a boyfriend

14. When he had to stand up to peer pressure

15. When Toby was "Toby-ish"
