As the summer is about to end and we are all getting ready to head back to campus, we (well most of us) are all looking forward to moving in with our roommate. It is easier when it isn't your first year of college because you most likely know who your roommate is and you can't wait to room together.

Rooming with someone for a year should bring you both together. You share laughs, tears, and a room. At the end of the day even when it gets tough, you learn to appreciate your roommate and who they are. Here's somethings I want my roommate to know before the year begins.

1. First off, I'm super sorry

To start this off let me just say sorry. Sorry that I am going to try to make you laugh all the time. That I am going to show you my love by giving you cute little notes and making you food.

2. Dance Party?

If you are bored, happy, sad, whatever your mood is, we are going to dance it out. Don't worry, I'll bring the speakers and you just plug in your phone. We can turn any day into a fun time with some music!

3. What's on my mind?... Food and sleep.

Don't be surprised if you come into the room and I am eating or sleeping. But I'll make you food! Don't worry beautiful, I'll get enough snacks for the both of us.

4. Little adventures!

We can get bored sometimes. But I am up for anything especially if it's with you. Wanna get something to eat? Climb Table Rock? Get a milkshake from Table Rock? Or just walk around, of course I'll go with you!

5. I'm here for you.

Whatever happens during the school year from passing a test to just having a sucky day. I'll be there for you, literally too, because we live in the same space. Just wake me up from my nap, or shoot me a text, I promise I will be there. I'll make you laugh and smile again!

6. Selfie Time!

Would we even be roommates if we didn't take pictures all the time? Get ready! We can both look beautiful or even looking tired. I'm always taking pictures so get ready for them!

7. Holiday Decorations?

I'll make sure our room feels super comfy and homey! Be prepared for decorations for the holidays! Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, you name it! I'll get the decorations!

8. Movie Dates

There are going to be nights when we both just want to stay in. What's better roomie bonding then watching a movie, face masks, and doing each other's nails?

I can't guarantee that I'll be a perfect roommate. But I do promise I'll be the best one I can be. I'll try to make you happy when you're having a bad day. I'll try my best not to annoy you, but no promises. I just want you to know that I am very excited and I'll try to make this year very memorable for you!

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

10 Reasons To Thank Your Best Friend

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst. You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed. You feel like you will have never-ending classwork to catch up on if you miss class, so you end up going sick and then it just takes longer to get better. Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
