We love winter break, but we hate leaving over roommates behind, and here's why:

1. Having someone to talk to 24/7


There's always someone there to talk to you, whether you need advice or just need to talk about something funny that you saw today on campus. They're always there to listen and they're awesome for that.

2. Laying in their bed


For some reason, you are always found laying in their bed instead of your own and the best part is, they never seem to mind you napping in their bed.

3. Getting ready together


Sure, you might shove each other in the morning when you're brushing your teeth and need a sink, but nothing is better than having your roommates there doing your hair and fixing your makeup for you before a night out. Getting ready isn't nearly as fun without them there.

4. Your inside jokes


There's certain things that only you and your roommates know or joke about and it stays that way between you guys. When you're home no one understands what the heck you're talking about, but you know that if your roommates were there, no explanation would be needed.

5. Laughing when someone does something embarrassing


Someone does something embarrassing at least once a day and you're not a close roommate if you don't all laugh together when that happens.

6. Being too comfortable with each other


You're going to miss not having a filter talking to your roommates and doing things that you would only let them see you do. There's a level of comfortability when you're with them and it's being too comfortable, but you wouldn't want it any other way.

7. Late night movie dates


It's always nice having them there to have those late night movie dates when you feel like watching a RomCom or just are fed up with doing your schoolwork and need them to take a break with you.

8. Blasting music so loud that the neighbors yell at you through the walls


The neighbors might yell at you through the walls because it's 9 a.m. on a Saturday and you're blasting Christmas music, but it's not a surprise because you and your roommates are constantly blasting music with each other, just trying to have a good time.

9. Complaining to them about your problems


A roommate is like your own personal therapist at all times of the day, whether they like it or not. The best thing, though, is that they always listen to you vent and are there for you when you need them.

10. Never being bored with them


I know that there will be a point over winter break when I get bored and I will just think about how my roommates are the furthest thing from boring and I will miss them so much.

11. Stealing their clothes


When you have one of those nights when you don't like anything in your closet or just need a certain type of shirt to match the new pants that you got, you can always go shopping into your roommate's closet!

12. Having them get you food


Whether someone is sick and needs soup delivered, or someone is out in town and offers to get everyone food that isn't dining hall food, you're always appreciative when your roommate brings you back food.

13. Their support in your decisions (even the dumb ones)


Whether it is a good idea or maybe not your best idea, your roommates have your back and are there supporting you along the way.

14. Sharing all the gossip that you know with them


You find out the majority of your gossip when all of you are together. Someone hears something juicy and shares with the group and it's great.

15. Just them, being them


At the end of the day, you love all the memories that you and your roommates have made and you are thankful that you live with such crazy, amazing and caring people.

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.
