12 Signs You And Your Roommates Are Old Souls

Does the TV in your room always seem to be turned to the game show channel? Does your house have an unusual amount of blankets or mugs? If so, you and your roommates just might be old souls. Here are 12 more signs that just might apply to your current living situation.

1. You've played a board game or card game together in the last month


Nope, Cards Against Humanity doesn't count.

2. Your dinner plans revolve around Jeopardy


Roommate: "I want Jim's. But I also want to watch Jeopardy tonight. What time is it?"

Me: "6:30. If we leave right now we'll have plenty of time to do both."

Roommate: "Or we could call ahead in 15 minutes, then leave, so we can bring it back here and eat while we watch."

Me: "I like your thinking."

3. You have more soup in your room than any other food

Perfect for nights when you don't actually feel like going anywhere to find dinner.

4. In addition to Jeopardy, you also watch a lot of GSN


If you don't know what that logo stands for, you clearly aren't an old soul.

5. If GSN isn't on, CNN is


Old people always seem to have the TV on, just like you and your roommates do. And you always keep it on one of these two channels, just like old people do.

6. You have enough throw blankets for all of you plus guests!


Because you guys are always cold. Or even if you're not, you always have a blanket. You know, just in case you might become cold.

7. You own more mugs than shot glasses


So. Many. Mugs.

8. You all still read as a hobby


Afternoons spent reading are not uncommon in your household.

9. More often than not, you guys decide to just stay in on Saturday night

Saturday evening usually consists of an hour of talking like you guys might actually do something, before ultimately deciding that none of you want to.

10. Meaning that you're too lazy to do your make-up even on a good day

If you've already found roommates who think you're beautiful without make-up, what's the point anymore?


11. Sometimes you just need to go to bed at 9pm

And when one of you goes to sleep early, you all end up going to sleep early.

12. You all argue like you've been married for 50 years, but you love each other anyway

If you're an old soul, the only people who will understand your lifestyle are fellow old souls. Find them. Room with them. They really do make the best roommates!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
