7 Times You And Your Roommate Were Leslie Knope And Ann Perkins

Many times, your college roommates become your closest friends. In fact, they become more than friends--despite disagreements or frustrations, there's something about sharing a living space that brings you closer together like nothing else will. You develop a bond deeper than friendship, and although they may never be roommates in the television show Parks and Recreation, Leslie Knope and Ann Perkins are the perfect example of what best friend college roommates are like.

1. Asking each other for clothing advice:

Because you would much rather hear it from them and have them save you the embarrassment of wearing a bad outfit in public.

2. Spending so much time together that people mistake you for a couple:

Although truthfully, they probably know more about you than your significant other does. After all, the best conversations happen behind closed dorm doors at 1 a.m.

3. The bond and loyalty you share:

Your roommates become your family, and family comes first. Always.

4. Being able to rely on them when you're having a bad day:

You know that no matter what, they have your back. Sometimes you don't even have to ask for support--they know you well enough to know when you need some cheering up.

5. Pep talks:

Not only are they there for you, but you want to support and encourage them when they're feeling low, because they're awesome and need to be reminded of that sometimes.

6. Wanting to find them Mr. Right:

It's no easy task, because they deserve the very best, but you're up for the challenge. Because if anyone knows them well enough to find them a match, it's you!

7. Loving each other through the good, bad or the ugly:

There will be times when you don't get along and feelings are hurt. But through it all, you will always make amends, because you love each other and can't imagine life without them.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
