15 Things That Happen When You're Close With Your Roommate

Going home feels weird because shouldn’t there be another person in the room?

15 Things That Happen When You're Close With Your Roommate
Lea Rose Allbaugh

1. You share something special.


“This is Jerry, our plant child"

2. Your conversations go from deep and philosophical to random in 10 seconds.

“What are the nutritional benefits of melon?”

3. You have weird habits together.

Bedtime means piano music time.

4. Whenever the other one leaves, you get really bored.

*leaves entire story in sticky notes*

5. You are on the same nap schedule.

*Naps so hard that your other roommates think that you guys aren’t home*

5. You eat each other’s food.

*as you are already reaching into the box...*

“Can I have some cheez-it’s?”

6. You eat snacks at the same time so you can feel fat together.

“I’ll have mac & cheese if you do.”

7. You know each other’s routine.

It takes one of you 40 minutes to get ready while the other person takes 15 minutes.

8. You have too many Snapchat pics of each other that could be used as blackmail.

You have a lot of stupid pictures of each other sleeping.

9. You are way too comfortable with each other at this point.

Who needs pants?

10. They are your go-to person whenever you wanna do something ridiculous.

“You wanna do the crazy run down the street?” “duh.”

“Do you want insomnia cookies?” “yea, it’s only 2 am”

11. You have your own language.

Wowarmoemar” (don’t ask)

12. Late night conversations are everything.

Way too many about boys tbh.

13. You know all of their quirks and they know yours.

From drawn out “yessss’s” when she feels accomplished to you calling honeydew “green cantaloupe,” you are both pretty quirky people anyways.

14. They’re your adventure buddy.

Including the time we decided to see Obama speak, that was probably the best.

15. They were your first college friend, and now one of your best friends.

“Kailey I’m hungry again, what should I eat?”

College is a crazy, beautiful, amazing whirlwind. It is highly popularized in television and movies, but not necessarily in the most accurate way. Yes, there's frats, dingy dorms, raging house parties—but there's also a lot that people fail to mention.

1. If you thought that you knew how to study, you're wrong.

All of your classes aren't taught every day, so professors aren't on your case constantly about reading and memorizing material. Once you get back that "questionable" first exam grade, you'll kick it into high gear and figure out what works for you

Girl With Bleached Hair
Tumblr

I've been a bleach blonde for over a year now, and let me tell you, it is a lifestyle. More hair appointments, longer showers, and special shampoo. But it is totally worth it!

1. Mentally preparing yourself to convince your hair dresser that white is the way to go.

2. Or the anxiety of what could go wrong by bleaching your hair at home.

3. You could either become a ginger

4. Or a pixie

5. The face you make in the mirror when you take off your towel to unveil the perfect white strands.

6. Taking a million selfies the day you bleached it, because you know your roots will be back in literally 2 days.

7. Having to get bangs or a big chop because your hair is so damaged.

8. Having orange highlights in between touch-ups.

9. Going out for a drink afterwards to debut your updated look.

Despite the struggles, you love your platinum blonde hair! You make sure Instagram knows it, too. You don't need a filter, because the color is flawless by itself!

Finals: just thinking about them gives you anxiety. Only two weeks separate you from summer, but they're the longest of the semester. There's a familiarity to this season, now that you have had so many testing cycles under your belt. But that doesn't quell the ever present stress to pass your finals and your classes. Even better, as a package deal during these wonderful weeks, you get to wake up early to study and you get to take exams that can begin anytime from 7 A.M. to 7 P.M. Now that we have established that this week is not fun, here are some super relatable moments that punctuate finals week.

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.
