I'd Be Lost Without My Roomies

A letter to my pod-mates.

I'd Be Lost Without My Roomies
Kaitlin Didinger

I want to start by saying that I'm more than excited to be living alongside all of you this year. I wish that I would have had the chance to get to know you all a little bit sooner. You all have such unique and awesome personalities. I'm so proud of everything that you're all doing.

Now, there are twelve of us living in one common space. That means we aren't always going to get along; however, I want you to know that I will never hold anything against you. It would be ridiculous for me to lose a friend because of something so minute as dishes adding up in a drying rack. Even if I'm upset about something, it will blow over, I promise you. I want you all to know that I will always be here if you need someone to talk to, no matter what.

Something you should know about me is that I am sarcastic. I am an ass sometimes and I know it. It's your job to tell me when I'm pissing you off. I won't get mad, I won't be upset, I'd rather know if me telling you to get your bread off the counter for five weeks straight is actually bothering you, because it's not supposed to. I can't emphasize that enough, please tell me if I'm getting to you.

I can't wait to see what this year brings us. It's only been five weeks and I already feel like I've been blessed with so much. I can only hope that we'll continue to enjoy many family movie nights, family dinner nights (if we can ever fit that one into our schedules), service days, and so much more. I'm so excited to see what the rest of this year brings, and I'm so excited to be having this adventure with y'all. You're all beautiful people inside and out, and you shouldn't ever think otherwise.

Thanks for choosing me to room with you, I love you all.

Sincerely,

Kdiddy

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)

It all started when we learned the truth about Santa.

It is no secret that many American traditions have changed over time. As we grow older we change in so many ways that it only makes sense that we also change the way we celebrate special occasions. Of course when it comes to the holidays there are some family traditions that many of us still excitedly look forward to, whether it is eating your favorite dish or seeing favorite cousin. However, we all know that the holidays have overall changed a little from what they used to be.
