Roommates

Being gone for a week of school can really put me behind. I woke up early to catch up on all the work I had missed. So I was exhausted and had a big test to take today. I wasn't ready at all but put in as much time as I could to be ready for it. I walked down in nasty slush, sleet, snow mixture falling from the sky. It was not a good day really. I was just trying to get through. As I got to the testing center and then remembered that I forgot my I-card. They won't allow me to take the test unless I have m I-card so its kinda important. I had no idea what to do because by the time I would get home and get back I would have 10 mins to take the test before my next class. That would not be enough time.

So Kourtni, my roommate, came to my rescue. I gave her a call and luckily she was on her way home and has a car so she was able to bring me my wallet. I was relieved that I was able to get my I-card and that I had a great roommate who would bring it to me. I was really blessed with amazing roommates through out college. I wouldn't have been able to survive college if I didn't have good roommates. They don't have to be your best friends but it doesn't really hurt if they are. It is hard when you don't get along with your roommates. I have had those struggles but luckily the problems that I have had were solved quickly. It is fun to look back and see how much I have changed and learned because of roommates. They are your home away from home and there needs to be harmony in the home.

I have grown to love all my roommates over the past 6 semesters, that adds up to over 20 different ones. This has been a blessing in my life.
