Current mood: sad to the point of tears
Subject: Roommates and the like
Some roommates become best friends (like Amanda and Tara), some become rivals (no example that I know of). I prefer to think of Tara as a sister. Sometimes the older one (okay, most times) and sometimes the younger one.

I felt so...complimented when she asked me some advice about dating and guys. And I can't help but babble to her about things going on in my life. Friendships, boys *blushes*, classes, weekends, going home... you name it. If I'm in a talkative mood, I'll just try to talk her ear off. I'm afraid though, once in a while, that I'm pissing her off by talking too much.

Tara, her friend, and a couple others are going to be renting out an apartment next year. The day when she came back, excitedly announcing that she'd signed the lease for the apartment, something akin to pride just broke over me. I was immediatly excited for her, seeing her so happy. Like when she told me that Fall Out Boy was going to be at her friend's party. She was so excited that it was freaking adorable.

I have to admit that I'm not the best roommate. Hell, I'm probably the worst. I'm messy, I hate getting up, I'm grumpy as a bitch in the morning, I grumble about food, I take my time in the shower, I listen to heavy metal, I wear black waaaaaaaay too much, in the beginning I was antisocial, depressed, and angry, I won't touch the vaccum, and I rant. I can't see how Tara can stand to live with me. I try to be good, honest. And I don't have any problem with her, just her phone when it rings late at night when we're trying to sleep ;p

Look, the point that I'm rambling on trying to show is that I have no problem with my roommate. She's probably the best roommate that I could ever have. Sure we have our differences, but that adds a bit of spice and flavor to everything. I wish I could tell her that I love her (platonically) and I always want to hug her. But I'm afraid that I'll scare her.

Tara's the best. I hope you all get a chance to meet her someday.

Ha. That is exactly how I feel about my roommates. Especially Melissa. She is a neat freak and listens to hip hop and pop, and my music (and the chaos that is my side of the closet) probably scare the hell out of her. Also she opens the window when it's like 40 degrees out and I yell at her :p. But I wouldn't trade it for the world.

Roommates are a trip. And they rock.
