46 Things To Thank Your Roommates For
Abby Blankenship Facebook

One of my favorite things about college is getting to live with my very best friends. Sometimes in the midst of craziness that occurs, I forget how lucky I am to have girls that STILL want to be friends/roommates with me despite the reasons listed below. (At least, I think they still want to live with me...) Here's a thank you for the past year! Have your roommates done a lot for you? You should thank them for the following reasons!


1. For telling you that you're the bigger person and you shouldn't block him.

2. And then supporting you when you block him anyway.

3. For deleting that Snapchat you looked bad in.

4. For still wanting to be roommates with you, despite the fact you don't clean.

5. Like ever.

6. For listening for HOURS when you want to tell them your future wedding plans.

7. Even when you have yet to find a groom. Or even a slight potential groom.

8. For always reminding you that grades aren't that important.

9. And then saying in their motherly voice, "Now have you studied or have you been playing on your phone all night?"

10. For dropping everything immediately to bring you toilet paper.

11. For always letting you borrow cash because you only have your debit card.

12. For turning your birthday into a literal lifestyle (thanks, Drake!)

13. For understanding that when you text, "Almost there!" what you really mean is that you haven't left yet.

14. For always checking for your approval before they post a picture of you on Instagram.

15. For never, ever judging you.

16. Even when they probably should.

17. For accepting that you're super dramatic about everything.

18. Like everything.

19. For telling you not to wear that (this is how you know you have a true friend...)

20. For spending a good 30 minutes in the group text coming up with a picture caption.

21. And then not getting mad when you choose a completely different caption.

22. For telling you that you're a pretty crier.

23. Even though you all know you're not. It's like, Kim Kardashian-bad over here.

24. For always leaving the room unlocked because you never have your key.

25. For not getting mad when you rip the couch because the "Sophomore 30" IS a real thing, y'all.

26. For wanting to have sleepovers in the living room so you can all be together, despite everyone having their own bed.

27. For always being available to cuddle.

28. For including you in their plans with their boyfriends.

29. Like, they don't even ask. It's just understood that it's a party of three.

30. For not getting mad when they've just cleaned the whole room and you bring all of your stuff in.

31. For sharing your love of "Hannah Montana" and always being down to have dance parties.

32. For always shrugging off the "noise complaints" that always seemed to occur during said dance parties.

33. For praying with you.

34. And praying for you because clearly you need it.

35. For picking you up at 2 a.m. behind the Winn-Dixie parking lot and asking no questions.

36. For always letting you borrow an outfit.

37. Or five.

38. For always texting you when they're having company over.

39. Which is never because the only company any of you have is each other.

40. For always going to eat with you, even if it's just so you don't have to sit alone.

41. For understanding your intense need to avoid all male contact.

42. For texting you in advance when they pass someone they know you're trying to avoid so you can plan your route accordingly.

43. For already having your speeches planned out for each other's wedding. (Still no groom.)

44. For never getting embarrassed when you FaceTime your cat.

45. They've even gotten to the point where they want to talk to her, too.

46. For defying the stereotype of "Don't live with your best friends because you'll end up hating them." We're still here, haters.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
