If You're Still Besties With Your Freshman Year Roomie, These 10 Things Are True

Move-in day freshmen year was so fun, but also chaotic AF. Not only was everyone bringing in big boxes and suitcases, but they had their entire family with them. You may have been a little nervous about setting up your new space, and meeting your new roomie for the first time. Now, you look back on that chaotic day as the first day of a beautiful friendship.

Traditions are a fun way for roommates to bond. Simple things like decorating for the holidays, movie nights, and Sunday brunches are all things you did together. You may not be living together anymore, but those college traditions have carried over with you. You may still meet every Sunday for brunch, and make sure to watch your favorite movies together.

Your friends think they know you to a T, but there are just some things you can't understand until you've lived with someone. For that alone, your freshman year roomie knows you better than most. She knows a few key things, like what it actually takes to wake you up in the morning, what makes you feel better when you're feeling down, and your favorite thing to do when you just want to relax. She could pretty much write a term paper on you, and you could do the same on her.

Real talk: Going to the dining hall alone stinks. Luckily, you never had to deal with that. You and your roomie always went to breakfast together, and because of that, you know her go-to meals and how she likes her coffee.

All-nighters are inevitable in college. Mom isn't there telling you to go to bed, so it's easy to lose track of time. Before you know it, it's 3 a.m. Those late nights are when you and your roomie think everything is hilarious, and it's when you come up with some of your best inside jokes. To this day, they still make you cry from laughing so hard.

Your dorm floor was pretty much your family freshman year. You may not have been super close to them, but you saw them all the time. When you end up moving on to the next dorm sophomore year, you lost track of some of them. Luckily, you and your roomie still keep each other up-to-date on freshman floor-mates when you bump into them, or see something new on the 'Gram.

You may have gone through a phase of doubting your major, and the struggle was real when you were tasked with a couple of massive papers. That's when your bestie came in to save the day.

When you were having a major school meltdown, your bestie was there to cheer you on. At graduation day, you screamed the loudest when they called her name, and now you're still cheering for every job promotion and interview.

Getting sick for the first time in college was rough. It was the first time you did't have your mom there with a bowl of chicken noodle soup and blanket to make you feel better. When it happened, you were so grateful to have your roomie there to nurse you back to health. She ran to the store to grab some tissues and picked up soup from the dining hall. She was your hero — for real. Now when you get sick, she is still the one you call to save the day, or at least whine to.

You talked to her about your friends from home so much that she practically felt she went to school with them too. She is probably friends with them now on Instagram and Facebook, and when they come to visit, you all hang out like you've been friends for years. You knew your freshman year roomie would be a friend for life when she so effortlessly fit in with your squad back in college.

During the summer, you missed each other so much that you made plans to visit each other's hometowns. Not only did you get to finally see all her favorite spots she had been talking about all year, but you got to meet her family. Now, her family is like your family, and vice versa.
