Every incoming college freshman anxiously spends their summer taking surveys and messaging others going to their college to try and find the perfect roommate. Roommates can either be a blessing or a curse. Hopefully, you get along with your roommate as well as I get along with mine.

Amazing things come along with getting a good roommate. Here are the cool things that happen when you give a girl a roommate, and they are just as good as when you give a mouse a cookie.

1. You get to have a never ending sleepover

You know that as a little kid you would do everything you could to hide from your parents when they came to pick you up from a sleepover. In college, this never happens. You can have endless nights staying up late talking to your best friend about boys and life and it never gets old.

2. You have access to a whole other wardrobe

While packing for college most girls get nervous that they are not going to have enough space to bring all of their favorite outfits. I have good news though, your roommate is going to want to borrow that cute top that you have and you'll want to borrow her romper. It's a win win situation that you can't get with anyone else.

3. You have someone who always looks out for you

A good roommate will want the best for you and they will always look out for you by motivating you to do your school work ahead of time or go to the gym. Maybe you and your roommate are even watching over each other at parties. No matter what, you have someone that always has your back and will watch over you.

4. You make all of your friends jealous because you love your roommate

Some of your other friends may not have been as lucky as you were to get a good roommate. They may not get the late night talks that you have or they may fight all the time. These are the friends that will spend more time in your dorm than their own, making it feel like you have two roommates instead of one.

5. Everything you buy is 50% off

My roommate and I buy almost everything together. This includes food, dorm decorations, and even Crocs. You always know you have your roommate there to split the price of everything with you, so there is no need to go searching for a bunch of coupons ahead of time.

6. She'll be honest with you

Your roommate will always be the first one to tell you if there is something to change about your outfit or if your eyeliner is uneven. Roommates will never lie to you and they surely won't judge you because they see you at both your best and your worst.

7. You'll make a lifelong friend

If you have a good roommate, it will feel as if you have known her your whole life. At this point, you cannot even imagine your life without her by your side.
