An Open Letter To My Freshman Year Roommate

To The Hero To My Zero

An Open Letter To My Freshman Year Roommate
Libby Frazier

Dear roommate,

Honestly? I went into college terrified that we wouldn't like each other or that at some point we would get sick of each other. Granted, it's only three weeks in, but we have bonded so much.

We have the best time ever. I don't know what to do with you half the time, what with taping nail polish remover covered cotton balls on your fingers, or simply touching my head awkwardly to wish me luck on me day. However, I couldn't have asked for a better first roommate.

So many people have horror stories about their first roommate, but I don't think I'm going to have any. Except for that awkward spooning encounter...but we can brush over that. So many of our friends have told us that we basically have the same personality, and if I'm honest, they're right.

I will forever cherish belting "Zero to Hero," "I Will Always Love You," and any other Disney show tune that comes on. In all honesty, I'll always cherish YOU. Being your roommate has been the highlight of college so far.

Here's to more self loathing movie nights, cleaning days, alarm making, and serenading our RA. I can't wait to request you again.

All the love,

Your Freshman Year Roommate

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

I've lived a whole 21 years with an RBF (Resting Bitch Face), so naturally, I go through most of these struggles on a daily basis.

And before you ask, yes I'm fine. No, I'm not mad. This is just my face, so take it or leave it! To those of you who have been #blessed with an RBF, you'll probably relate to these more than you'd like to:

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
