Not getting along with my roommate was a fear I had. I realize now that was totally irrational because we get along great. I have truly found my match. I am so thankful for that because I have heard plenty of roommate horror stories. I am proud to say mine is not a horror story. So here are some reasons I love my roommate.

1. We like the same snacks.

Almost every night we sit down with carrots and hummus. We switch to chips and salsa. Then we are eating chocolate. Oh, and don't forget the beef jerky. That is the most important.

2. She keeps our room clean.

She always does her part in helping out. I love that my room is never dirty. Of course there are clothes thrown around sometimes, but I never feel like I am responsible for everything.

3. We have the same sense of humor.

We always are laughing together and laughing so hard. Whether it is doing spit takes at twelve AM or laughing at funny videos on twitter. She always makes me laugh.

4. She does not judge my strange habits.

I have the worst allergies ever and I blow my nose so much in the middle of the night. I talk to my boyfriend every night before bed and she never gets mad at me. She always just lets me do whatever I want/need to do.

5. She listens to my rants when I am annoyed.

Sometimes they are about my boyfriend, sometimes they are about my family, or about our team, even sometimes about her. She always listens and manages to cheer me up.

6. She stands up for me.

If she ever hears people talking about me she will always stand up for me. She can always complain about me, but if anyone complains about me it is not okay.

7. She always forgives.

I can be a real brat sometimes, and we fight. She always forgives me even when I do not verbally express my apology.

8. She always comes with me when I do not want to go somewhere alone.

9. She knows how to have fun.

No matter how tired we can be sometimes, we always have fun. Even during our miserable pre-season, we always had fun together.

10. She sings High School Musical with me in the car.

We are really in this together, and we are so not going our own ways.
