I happen to live with a depressed roommate. She cries almost twice a week even though she seems like a perfectly normal girl who occasionally tells jokes and laughs with people. However, after a few nights of being woken up, I see the other side of her. Just last night, she hid in her bed [...]

Last Monday an amazing new roommate moved in. Her family is from England and we instantly became best friends. She’s the prettiest, nicest, sweetest roommate I’ve ever had. She loves to go for walks, chew my shoes, and watch my favorite TV show with me. She can get a little high maintenance sometimes, like she doesn’t [...]

Recently, I have come to discover there are 3 different kinds of friends. Ones who care and want the best for me. Ones who don’t really care. And ones who pretend to care but really just want to seem to be nice. To be honest, I only have a few real friends in my life. [...]

This thanksgiving break I had the opportunity to bring my Norwegian roommate to visit my hometown. She really likes to travel and we thought it would be a good idea to go to Mexico City because its kind of different from all the places she has been. I notified her before we arrived that everything [...]

Months have passed since we first met our roommates. Some of them are gone and went to a different room with their friends. Some of them have been moved for disciplinary reasons. Some people are just getting sick of their roommates as the true sides of their roommates are finally starting to come out. This is [...]

Last night my roommate really disappointed me. I got back from detention at about 10:00 and when I walked into my room I got a big surprise. My roommate had a box guarding his bathroom and was freaking out. I asked him what he was doing and he said that there was a giant cockroach [...]

The forbidden fruit of the athletes of IMG academies are the cookies at Reggie’s deli. For a slightly overpriced dollar and fifty cents, you can have an indulgent treat that practically melts in your mouth. Other than the possibilities of going broke or gaining twenty pounds, these cookies have one more downside that makes [...]

The difference between living on campus at IMG last year and this year are my roommates. Last year all my roommates were from the US and I was the only foreign student because I was from Australia. I was happy though because I got to learn so much about American culture and not just have [...]

I understand that it is difficult adjusting to a new environment and some people are unaware of what is appropriate and what is not in terms of social behavior, but my new “roommate” crosses the line of JUST PLAIN ANNOYING. In a dorm of 17 and 18 year olds, a new 13 year old girl [...]

I live with 5 other people in my room. The most interesting part is that 3 of them are European. They are wicked awesome. I think they are the coolest Europeans I have met. Two of them are from Germany, and the other one is from the Czech Republic. The best part is learning from each other. [...]

My roommate is THE biggest princess you will ever meet. Every morning (BEFORE GOLF) she wakes up an hour early to shower and blow dry her her hair. Then she carefully applies her make up until she decides it is up to her standards. She will never leave the house without her diamond necklace she received for her birthday, [...]

Leaving nice and comfortable home and moving to the dorms is an unforgettable experience. There are a lot of positive things to it – such as new friends and learning to be independent from parents and other adults. But positive on the surface sometimes can turn out to be negative on the inside, and that’s [...]

The experience of living with roommates that are from a different country is really eye opening. It can be really confusing for the first couple of days because we don’t know how to communicate with each other. At least that’s what we all thought, then I actually tried to talk to them, and that worked out [...]
