Living together through it all, you'll never be as close to anyone as your college roommate. Whether it's a wild night out, a late-night study session, or a Netflix and ice cream binge, the two of you are pretty much inseparable. Your roommate becomes your go-to for just about everything-- surprising you with your favorite snacks, telling you when it's time to shut off the tv and be productive, and, of course, picking you up when she knows you need it most. So when you head home all alone for winter break, it can be hard to readjust to life without your person just a few feet away. Here's some of the things you'll miss most about your roommate this break...
1. The Pep Talks
Recommended for you
Your roommate knows it's best to be brutally honest. You'll miss her daily encouragement to go to the gym, to class, the library, and everything in between.
2. Cooking Together
Part of the fun of living together is being able to cook fun meals. Making your own lunch at home is just not the same.
3. Their Closet
Arguably the best thing about living with a roommate is having double the clothes! You'd be lying if you said you didn't wish you had that one top of hers this break.
4. Surprising You With Your Favorite Things
With your roommate always looking out for you, she tends to pick up your favorites while at the store. There's nothing like coming home after a long day of class to a Coke Zero already waiting for you in the fridge!
5. The No Judgment Zone
No matter how stupid it may be, your roomie is always there to listen and offer advice. You'll miss always being able to show her your outfit, vent about your day, and ask her to edit the text you're writing.
6. The Little Things
When you're living with someone in such small quarters, the smallest things really do make the biggest difference. It won't be the same without watching tv together, having her straighten that piece of hair you can't reach, talking about your days, and all your inside jokes too.
7. Your Partner In Crime
She's the first face you see every morning, and the last face you see every night. You'll miss life with your roomie and be counting down the days until the two of you are back!
