19 Promises To My Future Roommate

It’s really exciting to make so many new friends your freshman year of college, and to develop a group of girls who are your family away from home. What’s more exciting, though, is being able to live with them after you’ve made a year full of memories. I'm still questioning if we're going to make it out alive next year. To my future roomie, I promise to…

1. Leave my closet door open at all times.

2. Always give you surprise concerts.

3. Be there when you need a hug.

4. Remind you that chocolate is not acceptable for every meal.

5. Never take the shot glass away from you.

6. Always make sure my side of the room is clean in case we're expecting visitors.

7. Never forget a Wine Wednesday.

8. Make our Pinterest Dorm board a reality.

9. Give you the best advice I can.

10. Always have Ben & Jerry’s in the freezer.

11. Know when we've written enough papers and just have a dance party.

12. Force you to go to the gym.

13. And talk you out of it.


14. Go out for Tower Tuesday even though we both have 8 a.m.s on Wednesday.

15. Talk about the future at 2 a.m.

16. Dedicate Sundays in the fall to football.

17. Obsess over all the beautiful men on the field.

18. Encourage you that failing a test is not the end of the world.

19. Make the room always feel like home.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
