I'm telling you right now to room with your best friend if you want to. There have been numerous studies telling you to do the exact opposite. You're told to run the other direction because it will ruin your friendship. Well those studies are wrong and heres 7 reasons rooming with your best friends will complete your life.

They will take on every cheat day with you.

So you want to skip the gym today and pig out on some really good Thia food. Chances are your best friend gone roommate will be down to join you.

Your place is a judgment free zone.

No matter your past or your strange hobbies best friends love you for you. And if you want to sit on the couch for 12 hours watching Grey's Anatomy reruns they don't care. They might even be right beside you doing the same thing.

If you need someone at 3:00am on a Tuesday they are there for you.

Whether it's a ride home from a tinder mistake or you need a hug because life is getting to be a little too much. Your roommate is never too far away to come to your rescue.

When you bring a bad guy home your best friend isn't going to let that happen.

Best friends look out for each other and if Chad from Palace Coffee wants to take you out and your roommate knows Chad has a girlfriend or Chad is a bad guy they are going to be brutally honest. You'll be mad at first but Chad is bad and they are doing you a favor.

You can share everything.

Okay so maybe not everything but for the most part if you need to raid their closet its up for grabs. And if they make dinner its probably for two and you can have some.

They keep you in check.

If it's time to get yourself together they are going to tell you. When it's been a little to long since you went out last you'er going to hear about it. If that outfit is just not cutting it they will tell you. Brutal honesty is no stranger in ya'll's home.

Unlimited venting time.

Your day turned sour or someone just really ticked you off. Good thing you live with your best friend and you can vent to her when ya'll both get home.

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

pale girl

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
