When you have to remind yourself, "I don't actually live here..."

I recently have started watching "Fuller House" on my dear friend's Netflix that I mooch off of (which only reinforces my point in this article, but I digress.) For those of you who haven't seen "Fuller House," you've at least seen "Full House," right? Come on, it's a classic. Any who, in the process of watching this series, I reached a point where I realized -- I'm the Kimmy Gibbler.

In case you don't know what a "Kimmy Gibbler" is, Kimmy is the quirky next-door neighbor who practically lives at the house of the protagonists rather than her own, and in the series reboot, she basically invites herself to actually move in with the family. So yeah, I'm that girl that spends more time at my neighbor's abode than my own. But in true "Gibbler-style," I embrace this fact. So for all of you who currently have or have ever had that one place you live at more than your own, here are all the perks of being the "Kimmy Gibbler" of the group and making your neighbors your best friends.

1. Save gas money.

You don't even have to walk to your car to go see your friends.

2. Always have dinner buddies.

Why eat alone if you can just make yourself at home in your neighbor's kitchen (or drag them with you to get food?)

3. Decorating ideas.

Especially if you're in an apartment, if it works for their room, it'll probably work for your room too.

4. Free rides.

You're going to Walmart? I call shotgun.

5. Homework parties.

"Have fun while getting everything done." - Neighbor

6. No shoes required.

You know you've really made yourself at home when you reach barefoot-status.

7. You can bring your own bed to sleep over.

"It's literally just right there, let me go drag my entire mattress over here real quick."

8. I'm too lazy to make friends that live more than three feet away.

Why leave your own neighborhood or hallway to make friends?

9. No knocking necessary.

Yeah, I really only knock if the door's locked…

10. There's usually at least 1 to 4 people available for moral support at any hour of the day.

Is there really such thing as a bad time to ask your neighbors a random question?

11. You can go home anytime you need to.

No need to worry about forgetting anything in your own apartment.

12. Cry together.

Friends who live next to each other stick next to each other.

13. They have food.

Mi casa es su casa, mi comida es su comida…?

14. You share recipes and spices like grown-ups.

Pssh, forget running to the store to get more eggs, let me just walk next door and see if they have any.

15. Company when all your roomies go home for the weekend.

There's a whole other room of friends waiting! (Theoretically)

16. Extended roommates when you need bandaids, a plunger, a mop…

Altogether, we make one complete adult human being.

17. You have a couch to crash on when you get locked out of your room.

… I speak from experience.

18. You can pretend to be a part of another family.

When you jump in on roommate meetings and you have to remind yourself, "I don't actually live here…"

19. They're pretty cool I guess.

Even if they weren't my neighbors, we'd still be friends. The proximity's just a pretty big perk.

Singing is something I do all day, every day. It doesn't matter where I am or who's around. If I feel like singing, I'm going to. It's probably annoying sometimes, but I don't care -- I love to sing! If I'm not singing, I'm probably humming, sometimes without even realizing it. So as someone who loves to sing, these are some of the feelings and thoughts I have probably almost every day.

After turning 16, our parents start to push us to get a job and take on some responsibility. We start to make our own money in order to fund the fun we intend on having throughout the year.
