15 Things I Need To Thank My Roommates For
"True friendship multiplies the good in life and divides its evils. Strive to have friends, for life without friends is like life on a desert island... to find one real friend in a lifetime is good fortune; to keep him is a blessing."

I've been blessed this year to get amazing roommates and an "adopted" one too. College would not be the same without these gems. That being said, I don't give these girls enough credit. They're here for me 24/7 and while we constantly bicker, we always find a way to make it through. Here are fifteen things I definitely have to thank them for.

1. Listening to my heated rants

Sometimes it's midnight rants about genetically-modified foods, other nights it's boys and other everything between.


2. Staying up until early morning hours to be my moral support.

We all hunker down and drink coffee and bond over mutual hatred for homework.


3. Being the Duff in my selfies when I'm trying to look good

There's nothing to lose when your friend has a crush on a guy, so why not make her look best?


4. Being available when I lock myself out of our dorm

The key is usually on my desk... You guys are the real MVP.


5.Not judging me on my taste of music

Even when you really don't understand it.


6. Not hating me for turning every light on when I get ready in the morning

My morning person and your morning person don't get along, but you still love me.


7. Being my moral support when I replay every aspect of the conversation between me and a boy

Whether I've actually talked to the boy or not there might be something to overthink.


8. Reading into things just to make me feel better

"He touched your arm on the way to the Rot, it's almost ring by spring!"


9. Keeping the room neat - when I forget

Room check reps would cost me a fortune if it wasn't for you guys.


10.Being my Personal Stylist

"You can totally pull off red lipstick, plaid and checker does NOT go together, don't wear those shoes with those pants. What is that eyeshadow?"


11.Late night Walmart runs because I'm hungry

FOOD and a college budget don't go well together.


12. Morning Teeth and Toothpaste checks

"Do I have anything on my face?"


13. Eating lunch with me so I'm not alone

The Rot is a scary place without friends.


14. Not telling me "I told you so"

I usually deserve an " I told you so", but you guys don't say it.


15. Laughing with me

You guys are the best roommates a girl could ask for. Thank you for laughing with me, listening to me, and enjoying college with me.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
