Roommates and best friends all in one.

To my roommate,

Even though we’ve only spent six weeks together you are like a sister, mom, best friend, therapist and doctor all in one. Everyone has their problems with their roommates and usually end up hating each other. That’s not the case for us at all. Yes, sometimes we have our petty fights but we never stay mad for too long.

I live for our late night drives we take exploring Macomb. I’m sorry about my horrible singing at the top of my lungs when my jams are on. Also, I love it when we make unexpected Walmart runs just for the fun of getting out the dorms. Even if we don’t need anything, it’s nice spending some quality time together just the two of us. You take some funny videos of us singing aloud I will forever cherish and save those.

I was lucky enough to find you on the roommate matching and find out that we both are Social Work majors! I knew after talking to you on Facebook that you weren’t like the roommates off of the horror movies. Instead, I was blessed with such an amazing person who has turned into my best friend. We both have an advantage of helping each other with our homework when we actually know what we're learning.

We have so much in common and laugh about the dumbest things together. I love how we can just break out into a dance when music is played together. We already have hundreds of inside jokes and much more to come. You are the first person I go to for everything like what outfit to wear, workout routines, movies or what to eat. Thank you for going to dinner with me across campus even if you weren’t that hungry. I know I’m not the easiest person to live with but you somehow handle living with me.

Weekends are best spent with you when we play with my Game Cube or have a girls night watching movies. I have never met someone so similar to me. I’m so glad I met you and we are roommates. I don’t know what I’d do without you. Thanks for staying up late and talking to me when I needed someone to vent too...even if it was late on a school night.

I always miss you when you're gone at class or when you go home on the weekends. It does get lonely in the dorm being by myself. It just makes me realize how much I love having your company. Words won't ever explain the bond we share. I can't wait to see how the rest of the year goes for us.

Thank you for everything you do. I love you so much


Love, Hannah

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
