A Letter to the Roommate Back in Boulder Whose Mattress That I Stole

Dear Roommate,

It's been a while. Four years and no call. How have you been? How's Colorado? Rocky Mountains are beautiful this time of year. Remember that one we skipped class and went hiking? We were sitting there by the fire, you turned to me and said, "wanna do something crazy?" I confidently replied, "always." And the next morning we got matching tattoos on our shoulders. I'm writing you all of this so you are reminded of the good times. I'm writing you all of this so you remember how we used to be so close... Closer than anyone else. I'm writing you all of this because I'm the one who stole your mattress back in Boulder.

It was an impulsive decision. I was moving to the city to follow my then ex-boyfriend, Andrew (you remember him, right?), who, by the way, is sitting next to me right now. We're back together! Surprise! I know he used to drink too much and that was a real issues but he swears he's OK. Anyways, I needed a mattress for my new place and you know how broke I was. I spent all my money on that Range Rover and I never looked back. I know, I know, I should have just asked, but it was seriously way too last minute and you definitely would have said no. I know you. Remember that. I know you and I know you will forgive me... Eventually. I'm so sorry.

-Your Roommate

And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
