My sophomore year of college is about to start and I cannot believe how fast the time has gone.

Just a short year ago I had no clue that I would meet some of my best friends, become a part of a sorority, and turn Iowa into a home away from home. There are many people that helped me throughout my first year, but my roommate is one who played a huge part in that.

For many who are going to have their very first roommate in just a couple weeks, here are just a few things you should be expecting to hear/say to one another:

1. "Can I wear that tomorrow?"

I promise you, your closets will become one. There is no, "this is mine". From now on it's, "ours".

2. "Did you skip class, too?"

Whether it's a 7 am, 8 am, or even 9 am, it will get skipped at some point...maybe even multiple times.

3. "When will you be back from class and work?"

It's only fun when your here with me.

4. "Do you have a stuffy nose too?"

There is a very low chance that only one of you will be sick.

5. "Do you think I need to shower or should I put it off another day?"

Even if the answer to showering is a no, at least use some dry shampoo or wear a hat.

6. "We need to clean tomorrow."

It'll be said, but it will rarely happen.

7. "Wake me up in 10 minutes."

I promise you both will say this, but will both end up falling asleep and missing yet another class.

8. "What show should we start?"

Netflix>Homework.

9. "Can you help me with my homework?"

Knowing someone else doesn't understand it will put you at ease.

10. "Should we order a pizza AGAIN?"

This is literally where all of our money went.
