20 Things I Forgot To Thank My Roommate For This Year

College isn't easy, and this is a given. What also isn't easy is moving in with a person you've never met before and trusting them not to steal your stuff or kill you in your sleep. Finding a roommate that you enjoy isn't always easy. It's not like you can test out living with someone before you come to school, especially if you choose to go random. Whether you chose your roommate on Facebook, went random, or knew them already, the fact of the matter is that living with someone is a whole different story.

It can be super hard to find someone who you can compatibly live with and who doesn't make you want to pull your hair out. What's even harder is finding a roommate who actually becomes your best friend. Some people get stuck with roommate they definitely can't live with, and others make a life long friend out of their roommate.

If your roommate has become your best friend without even trying, then the list will not only be relatable, but it will make you gush up about leaving your BFF this summer:

1. Thank you for crying with me when it's been a long day.

2. Thank you for always checking in on my life and showing that you actually care.

3. Thank you for not getting mad at me when I don't take out the trash for 3 weeks.

6. Thank you for letting me eat all of your food.

7. Thank you for knowing when all my exams and classes are and wishing me luck.

8. Thank you for all the times you've ran and got me something if I didn't feel good (or was feeling lazy).

9. Thank you for trusting me and letting me into your life as more than just a roommate.

10. Thank you for all of our inside jokes that make me laugh every time.

11. Thank you for hating and liking the same people as me.

12. Thank you for making sure my outfit and hair looks okay every morning.

13. Thank you for being careful not to wake me up when you get up earlier than me.

14. Thank you for all the times you've taken care of me when I needed you most.

15. Thank you for double checking with me before you do basically anything (even though you definitely don't have to).

16. Thank you for keeping all my secrets and letting me open up to you.

17. Thank you for accepting all the strange/abnormal things I do.

18. ...and for not judging me for eating 24/7.

19. Thank you for putting up with my odd napping hours.

20. Most of all, thank you for making our room feel like home.

For some of us, coming to college was the first time we ever had to share a room. It was a big change, but a fun one.

Toilet Troubles

"So, usually I would never go on a Tinder date but when you are out with girlfriends and a hot Bosnian guy says he wants to hang with you and his friends, you oblige. We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water. To say the least, we were not invited back"
