13 Unique Ways To Say "Goodbye"
Topcount.co

There are many ways we say goodbye to the people we live with. Some typical examples of acceptable goodbyes include: bye, see ya later, see ya, I'll be back later, farewell, etc. Unfortunately, simple goodbyes can become so commonplace that our farewells become monotone and boring. However, not every goodbye has to be like this. In fact, there are many goodbyes that you can use to shake up your mornings and get a few laughs out of your roommate. Here's a simple list of unique goodbyes to shout at your roommate as they depart.


1. Don't forget to come back!

This was the first unique farewell my roommate ever called at me. It may seem pretty obvious, but it is still a good reminder in case you have a forgetful roomie.



2. Fall in love and get a husband (or wife)!

Nothing says a good day like the potential of true love.


3. Don't get cut by a blade of grass!

Safety first, kids.


4. Be careful! Don't get attacked by a squirrel!

Squirrels may seem cute and cuddly, but they can actually be very vicious creatures.


5. Don't get lost on your way to class!

This one applies best if you attend a large University like U.K. or O.S.U.


6. Don't get attacked by a bear, It's nighttime!

It's a jungle out there, bro.


7. Don't trip on a raindrop!

This one applies best if it's raining outside when your roomie departs.


8. Don't get paint in your nostril!

This may seem strange, but if your roomie is an art major then it is definitely good advice.


9. Bye! I tolerate you!

This is great to keep your roommate from getting too chummy. Especially if you hate hugs.


10. Influence the youths in a good way!

We all have that one friend (or roommate) who needs this distinction.


11. Have fun storming the castle!

I'll admit, this one came from the Princess Bride. But it's still really fun to say.



12. Make sure the doormat says goodbye!

This one really only applies if you have one of those doormats that says "hello" and "goodbye" on it.


13. Make new friends on the sidewalk!

The sidewalk can be a magical place if you let it be.


Next time you're roommate leaves for class, the library, Starbucks, etc. Shout one of these unique farewells at them! It'll probably brighten their day, or at least make them chuckle.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

1. People assume you are mad all of the time.

2. Ten out of ten times you will give off an intimidating impression to others.

3. People do not acknowledge your feelings because you "do not have any."

4. Constantly being exhausted from trying to smile and not look like a witch.

5. And on the rare occasion your facial expressions show how happy you are, your friends think you are going crazy.

6. Each of your friends has said "I thought you were so mean when I first met you" at some point.

7. Then they follow that by saying "you are just hard to read."

8. So naturally if people do not know you they just assume you are a snob.

9. And when you are actually mad, your facial expressions are horrifying.

10. In the end you always look like you are judging people, when in reality people are ALWAYS judging you.
