10 Things That Happen When Your Roommate Becomes Your Best Friend

The best (or worst) thing about college is getting to live with a roommate. Depending on who you end up with, this experience can be good or bad. This person sees you at your worst, when it's 3 am and you have a paper due at 8 or at your best, when that cute guy from chemistry finally texts you. If you're lucky, you get someone great that eventually becomes your best friend and these things happen:

1. Every night becomes a therapy session.

Because who else is going to listen to all of your problems and not judge? She'll always tell you like it is. You both give great advice.


2. You have one giant closet instead of two small ones.

You trust each other enough to share everything. With both of your fashion skills combined, nothing can stop you. Her black dress + your red shoes = total world domination.


3. You memorize each others' schedule.

It's not planned. It just kind of happens. Oh it's 2:00 on a Wednesday? She's in math class.


4. You always have someone to go places with you.

"Hey, wanna go get dinner?" "Sure!" She'll always tag along on your adventures across campus or anywhere else you might need to go. She can make any boring task a fun one!


5. You understand each other completely.

It's like you have pizza telepathy. She knows what you're thinking before you even think it. "Wanna order pizza tonight?" "Duh."


6. You're always updated on each others' lives, even on long breaks apart.

If you can't tell her in person, a text is the next best thing. It's like she never left. She gets a daily update of your life, even if it's just telling her you saw a cute puppy that day.


7. You celebrate together and cry together.

She's the very first person you call when something big happens. She's there to dance around the room with you after you ace your science exam and cry with you when you're stressed. Sometimes both. You both care about the small things and that's what makes your friendship so great.


8. You balance each other out.

She's the crazy one with a sunshiny personality and you're the cool, calm, and collected one that keeps you both put together. It works perfectly. Together, you're the dream team.


9. You watch the same shows on Netflix.

Usually together. You might even share an account. You obviously can't watch the next episode without her. It's against all laws of having a roommate.


10. You wouldn't trade each other for the world.

She quickly became your best friend and you couldn't imagine living with anyone else.


Hopefully, you'll be able to find a roommate this great.

Bob's Burgers
Adult Swim

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.

We're in college, none of us actually have anything together. In fact, not having anything together is one of our biggest stressors. However, there's a few little things that we do ever so often that actually make us feel like we have our lives together.

1. Making yourself dinner

And no this does not include ramen or Annie's Mac & Cheese. Making a decent meal for yourself is one of the most adult things you can do living on campus. And the food is much better than it would be at the dining hall.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.
