Thank You To The Roommate That Turned Into A Sister

I couldn't stand you but at some point you turned into my best friend.

Thank You To The Roommate That Turned Into A Sister
Raven Stikes

First, let me say thank you for putting up with me. Who would've guessed that we would end up being friends after I spent most of the first semester not being able to stand you? We have had so many fun (mis)adventures. Whether it be the time we went driving and ended up on a dirt road with you and Shelbs flipping out to our late night runs to the commons for Swiss Cake Rolls because I really wanted some and was too afraid to walk by myself to the times that you put off your sleep just to stay with me at the library so I could get in my study hours because I was always busy during the regular hours. Though we both knew we had an early morning the next day. Then there is the time we decided that climbing the stairs for two straight days was a great idea so we wouldn't get out in Spoon Assassins and after being so sore decided the elevator wasn't too risky. But we still acted as if we were being hunted by the FBI whenever we felt the elevator stop on any floor besides the first floor. Then there was the days where after our 9 a.m. you would meet me in the commons because I always had to get George's or Einsteins.

Looking back on the past semester makes me upset that we won't be rooming together again. We hardly ever had a dull moment whether it be you talking in your sleep or us messing around in the hallway because of Juan the ghost dog. I couldn't have asked for a better person to share some of my most heartbreaking to funniest moments with. Getting to spend this past summer with you has truly been a blessing even if we are spending most of it together at work. I'm glad that I have gotten to spend my summer with you. Thank you for always listening to me complain even whether it be about boys or my crazy family or school. You were always there ready sitting in our room in your pink moon chair ready to listen to me and give me advice.

Even though many people probably believe that we hate each other they will probably never understand that you are one of my best friends even if you do drive me crazy sometimes. I can't wait to share the rest of my college experience with you. I hope you know that no matter where we go I will always have your back and you will now and forever be Mama Tams. I look forward to our workouts together, movie nights and game nights (Clue is calling our name). This next week coming up is gonna be one of the toughest leaving both you and my family. As soon as you get to campus I will be over annoying you, Chlo and Shelbs. I can't wait for the Nanas to be reunited to wreak havoc on campus once again at Bingo and Zumba. I can't wait for us to have more Haute adventures. Also, Whenever you figure out who built what wall when let me know. Thank you for being my mom away from home and kicking me in the rear when I needed it most.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
