Roommates are hard. They never clean up after themselves, they borrow your cardigans without asking, and they'll eat your food. Roommates make your life 10x harder than it has to be. But who you know who doesn't? Cats. Cats are the ultimate roommate. They're adorable, clean, don't wear your clothes, and can't eat your food.

1. You'll have an alarm clock.

Having a ball of fur as your alarm clock will ensure that you're never late for class or work again.

2. Little paws poking under the bathroom door to remind you're loved and missed.

Your roommates don't miss you every time you go to the bathroom, but your cat will.

3. They're weirdly entertaining.

Cats are weird little balls of fur and I bet your roommate can't squeeze into a jar.

4. Cats won't wear your clothes without asking.

Cats are the perfect roommate because they won't wear your favorite necklace without asking you first and then post a picture of them wearing it. *ahem*

5. They'll entertain themselves.

No need for a clingy roommate who needs attention because cats are easily amused.

6. Cats are much more majestic than any humans.

Is your roommate this pretty? Didn't think so.

7. You'll always have someone to cuddle with.

I mean you could cuddle with your roommate, but that's a little weird.

8. You'll always have someone to eat dinner with.

Crazy schedules mean you'll end up eating alone, BUT with a cat, you'll always have someone to eat with.

9. They love to help you clean up.

Your shelves will be spotless. Cats love to help clean up by knocking everything off your nightstand at 3 AM.

10. Unlike roommates, cats will never judge you.

Go ahead and eat that third slice of pizza. Your cat won't judge you.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
