Girl Roommates: Exposed

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at UCF chapter.

Upon embarking on my sophomore year, I came back to Orlando with a lease signed for an apartment with my three best girlfriends. Today marks one month since move in and I’ve already learned a lot about living with these girls. Join me in calling out all of those girls you’ve lived within the past.
 

·   Spontaneously decide to go to dinner… leave an hour and a half later because of that one         roommate that takes decades to get ready.
o   It’s like rocket science trying to get these girls to get ready at the same time, I feel like I can graduate with a self-taught event management degree by the end of this year.

·   Only fat-free milk in the fridge…gross. I may as well put water in my cereal.

·   Shoes, EVERYWHERE.

·  That time of the month…times three.
o   Did you know that when girls live together, their menstrual cycles sometimes sync? It’s called menstrual synchrony and has to do with pheromones emitted by the girls. Three at once, lucky me.

·   2 am ranting sessions.

·   No hot water. Ever.

·  Twilight movie marathons.
o   Can anyone else not stand those movies?

· “WHERE ARE MY SHOESSSS?!”

·  Seeing them wake up in the skimpy dress from last night.
o   Enough said. The rule in the house is that this girl gets the cup imprinted with “hot mess” for the next get together.

· Lightweights.

·  Screaming fits of lust over Eric from True Blood.
o   Thank goodness the season’s over. I’d avoid my living room on Sunday nights.

·  Boy drama. Period.

I hope you guys can relate to some of these. However, even with all of these quirky things, I wouldn’t live with these girls any other way. They definitely keep things exciting and always over-the-top.
 
Until next time, YGBFF Justin xo.
