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!

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.
