Going into college, everyone is nervous about who their roommate is going to be. Are they going to like me? Are we going to get along? Personally, my biggest fear of going into college was my roommate moving out and finding someone better, and unfortunately that happened to me, but within the same day I found a new, amazing roommate who helped me make my freshmen year one that I will never forget! I quickly noticed sings that she was the perfect roommate for me, hopefully, everyone found their perfect roommate, or will find their perfect roommate when going into college.
1. You help each other study all night, even when you'd both rather be sleeping. (Especially when your roommate is studying for Anatomy and Physiology.)
2. You feel completely comfortable around each other, maybe a little TOO comfortable.
3. They're always down to de-stress with some good old fashioned partying!
4. When everyone around you is hooking up and your self confidence goes down, they're always there to help you pick yourself back up again!
5. When you're sad and crying, they hurt too. They cry along with you, no matter what the circumstances.
6. They binge watch the same shows with you, even though you both should be studying. You earned that 3 hour break for reading Chapter 1 of 9.
7. They find all of your jokes funny, even if it's the dumbest thing they've ever heard, they laugh along with you, because let's face it, you're not always as funny as you think.
8. Over school vacations and when they leave for the weekend, you miss them like crazy and it feels weird to be sleeping in an empty room.
9. You help each other with their assignments, even when they've only done the bare minimum.
10. You never judge each other on the amount of food the other person is eating, instead, they join you in the binge fest!
11. They know when you should be studying, so they force you to skip one "Thirsty Thursday" to hit the books, even though you don't want to, but the temptation is all over your building and they keep telling you, "you don't need it."
12. They aren't disappointed in you when you procrastinated an assignment because they know you've procrastinated something important as well. Instead of crying about it, you both laugh about how you only have 4 hours 13 minutes and 57 seconds to hand in the assignment, but who's counting right?!
13. You share a fear in the future and have the occasional mental breakdown because of it. The stress of college has finally gotten the best of you and all you can do is accept it.
14. They know exactly what to say to get you out of your bed and have a good time.
15. And, most importantly, they've become your best friend over blood, sweat and tears, and you know your relationship with your roommate is unique and something that no one can take away from you!
