Dear Ellie, You Aren't Just My Roommate, You're My Best Friend
Katelyn Doherty

Dear Ellie,

Thanks for being my roomie, my best friend, and my personal therapist. The list could go on, but you're my person and I'm sure you already know. Warning you now this is about to get real sappy and real corny, I'm sorry. I remember the first time you messaged me on instagram asking me to be your potential roommate. I was shocked, and extremely excited because I stalked your instagram hard core. I thought you were so freaking pretty and so chill, you were the perfect college roommate. I later found out that you asked me to be your roomie because you appreciated my tooth gap, and loved my Birkenstocks. The friendship was meant to be. Once we started messaging, we instantly clicked and our friendship grew from there.

From the endless ugly snapchat photos, to the paragraph texts complaining about everything, we became really close and the move in date came even closer. I was nervous to move into college but knowing I already had my best friend, it made life so much easier. I knew it was going to be the best year of my life when we managed to match our room decorations without trying. We connected on so many things, and continue to. It's great to have someone who understands me but can also keep me in line when I'm being too sassy. We both know my sass is out of control some days.

Thanks for being my roomie and for most importantly being my person. I don't think I could have survived this first year of college without you. We've made so many amazing memoires and I can't wait to make so many more! I would never want to finish an entire pizza, scream in the hallways, make up Portlandia skits, be cheer captains, watch Spongebob, cry over nothing, talk about chicken nuggets, obsess over honey mustard, or watch conspiracy theories with anyone else. Or have anyone else chase me with worms....I love you bitch.....I ain't ever gonna stop loving you...biiiiitch.

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.
