When I first left the comforts of my home, I was very worried that I would not get along with my roommates. I had heard many roommate horror stories from my college veteran relatives, and was expecting the worst. I was pretty sure that at the least one of my roommates would be a psycho demon that would breath fire, cook nasty smelling food, and never do her dishes.
Thankfully, there are no demons living in my apartment. My roommates are amazing! At first things were a little awkward, we were six girls that didn't know anything about each other, and were suddenly around each other all the time. But, as the days went on, we've all become really good friends.
My roommate Lea, the one I share a room with is hilarious. At first she was really quiet and shy, but after she got out of her shell she became the life of the party! She's always pulling little pranks on us, her favorite of which is to sneak away our food and hide it. Recently she took my delicious double-stuffed oreos and hid them in one of our other roommate's beds. When I found out, I decided to play my own prank on her. So I took all of her food out of our pantry and hid it under the sink.
I felt really sneaky until I came home from my swing dance class and found all of my food sitting in the shower.
We have so much fun together, most of the time we just sit around and giggle at each other, it's great.
So to all of you who are afraid to live with complete strangers, don't be. You'll love it!
