A Letter To My Roommate Who Survives A Whole Month Without Me

Dear Roomie (aka Sarah),

Our first semester is coming to an end, meaning that you have dealt with my weirdness and goofiness for about a few months and yet you survived. I am known to be a quiet person and sometimes kind of hard to be open, but talking to you, I became a more open person and surprised to find out that we have more things in common than what I thought. You accepted many things about me that some people think that it's very weird of me to like it. We are very similar, but I'm just a little bit more crazier than you.

We met through Facebook during the "looking for a roommate" process because I know I didn't want to go through a random roommate. To find someone who is similar to me was amazing because it did help take the "home sick" feeling that comes and goes. Two Disney fans living in the same dorm was really fun, especially when either one of us were playing a random Disney song to sing along with. I will never forget that random Power Ranger conversation we had because some people have no idea the many series that they had. Our conversations in general were random, but always fun

You accepted the fact that I love anime and came in terms of me being a K-pop fan. To find out that you are also an anime fan just made me like you even more, even if you didn't know what anime was, I would've been introducing it to you for like the first two months of the semester. You had an idea of what K-pop was, which was alright with me, but I felt proud in myself that I got you into one group because of their catchy and addicting song, Blood, Sweat and Tears. All I have to do now is to get you to admit that you love Jimin, but that's a project that can be saved for another time.

Our walks, either in the afternoon or at night, were always fun because hatching eggs in Pokémon Go took a lot of time. Running into our band director because our music building is a gym always made me laugh. It was always fun hanging around you.

I thought it was going to be weird sharing a room with someone since I always had a room to myself back at home, but it was actually really fun. I'm glad we became roommates and best friends because you are like a sister to me. I always was with my brother back home, so it was nice to have you around. As I am leaving a day or two before you, I hope that you do well on your finals and that you have an awesome winter break. By the time you read this, you will be wondering when did I have the time to write this without you looking at my laptop. That is the type of skills that I have. Anyway, have a nice break, I will be texting you over the break and trying to get you into another K-pop group and see you in a month for basketball band.

From your goofy but loving roommate,

Destiny

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.
