Why Having College Roommates Has Its Pros And Cons

As my final semester here at Florida State is winding down to an end, I stop and think about all the wild memories that my roommates and I have shared. The countless nights spent getting ready together, sharing meals, and our "big nights out," I know that these are memories that are going to last a life time. There's a lot of things I am going to miss about our little home, but there are certain things that I definitely can live without.


Thing I'll Miss.

Having multiple closets to choose from. It's always a nice thing to have a roommate that has good style and good clothes. "Oh hey I love your top!" "Oh thanks, it's my roommate's!"

Thing I Wont Miss.

Raiding closets without permission. Come ladies, it's a simple task to just ask!

Thing I'll Miss.

Things Always having someone to go out with or stay in with. (most of the time). And when you choose to go out and they don't, they'll still love you for who you are, even in the rarest of forms.

Things I Wont Miss.

When I choose to stay in, my roommates go out, and come home really late at night and making really loud noises. The next morning asking questions like: So, did you fall and hit your head? What kind of food did you make? Are you OKAY!?

Things I'll Miss.

There's always someone that will go eat with you. Weekly family dinners are a must and probably one of things I'm going to miss the most.

Things I'll Miss.

Always having someone to be on the same stress level as you during difficult times: Exam & Midterm week, formal seasons, and boy troubles. You'll at least have one person there for you at all times.

Things I Wont Miss.

When they bring an unfamiliar fellow home. Like girl, who is this guy and why is he in our home?!

Through the good and the bad, roommates and college make friends that will last a life time. They've seen you at your best, and most certainly your worst as well. Shout out to my homies at Catalyst 224 and Treehouse, let's make this last month count!

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
