20 Signs Your Roommate Is Your Best Friend
James Emery

Man, did I get lucky with my freshman roommate. I came in hoping she would be tolerable, little did I know she was about to become one of my best friends. I hear horror stories about my other friends and their roommates and I just can't help but think how lucky I am to have her in my life. So, this one's for you, Miko.

1. When you see each other for the first time after break, its like nothing changed

2. You stay up way too late talking about your feelings

Like, way too late.

3. Surprise gifts

4. They don't judge your food intake

Just the other day she ate a 40 pack of pizza rolls. I encouraged her the whole time.

5. You know exactly what the other is thinking just by the look on her face

6. You have your own language

Yeeeaaas.

7. Nap times

8. Synchronized emotional breakdowns

Once one of us starts, the other isn't too far behind.

9. They can be your best motivator or your worst influence

In all aspects of life.

10. They know every name on your R.I.P List

The R.I.P List is basically a list of your ex's.

11. They stop you from contacting the people on your R.I.P List

12. Your friends back home are her friends

13. They remember your deadlines

And hold you to them.

14. They tell you when you look like trash (and when you look gorgeous)

15. They just know

She's a wizard, I swear.

16. They know your limits

And push them.

17. They've seen you at your best (and your worst)

18. They encourage your obsessions

19. They know every dirty little secret

Every single one.


20. You can't imagine living with anyone else

Love you, girl.

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
