My Future Roommate: You Won't Regret It

Here's an open letter to my best friend and future roommate. It's about to be a crazy ride!

My Future Roommate: You Won't Regret It
Loves U Jeiry

You, my friend, are in for a crazy ride. Thank you for deciding to put up with me. I promise you won't regret it.

We are going to have so much fun in the future. I can't wait to move in together. From crazy nights at karaoke to dinner dates at Applebee's, you are the one who has been there for me in the past and I can't wait to have that atmosphere 24/7.

We became best friends in such a short amount of time and things just clicked. People say that best friends living together is a bad idea but there's something different when it comes to you and me. I know you're probably reading this, rolling your eyes and thinking "here we go with the sappy stuff again" but I can't wait to see what the future has to bring. In the short amount of time that I have known you, you have gotten to know me better than anyone else. Not only are you my best friend and my roommate but you're "my person." (of course I had to make a Grey's reference) You are the one I come to when I need advice. You're who I immediately want to talk to when any event happens in my life (which is about 10 times a day). You're that friend that I see being there for me for a lifetime. Now that I've met you, I can't picture going through anything without you.

We've definitely had our ups and downs. Our friendship hasn't always been the smoothest but I think all of the fights we have been through have made us grow stronger. We are so much alike that sometimes we tend to butt heads about the stupidest things, like me siding with your mom or you being brutally honest with me over a stupid outfit. Even though sometimes I take things way to seriously and sometimes you don't take things seriously enough, I think we are going to make great roommates.

We balance each other out. Even though on somethings we are exactly the same, on others we are as different as can be. You love being home and being in your comfort zone, while I like to move to new places and be away from home. You love your sleep, while I tend to stay up studying. You like acting like a quiet person while I'm a social butterfly. But what I absolutely love is how even though we drive each other insane, at the end of the day we always have each others backs. From yelling at each other through texts to crying about something that happened over the phone, I know that you're always there for me and vice versa. I've never had someone click with me the way that you do.

This year is going to be a roller coaster ride. It's college and it never fails that as students we can go from a personal high to a personal low in a matter of minutes. Regardless, I know that when I hit rock bottom this year, whether it's failing a test or finishing my softball career, you'll be there and give me a shoulder to cry and. I also know that when I accomplish my biggest goals this year you'll be the one there celebrating with me. I hope you know that this is going to be the best year yet!

I can't wait to live with you this year not because you're my best friend but because you're my person.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

10 Reasons Why Sisters Are The Best

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

sisters
Taylor Hooper

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

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.
