All you can do is hope and pray that they’ll just leave you alone for the most part. A lot of the time, you can get a hint about what kind of roommate they’ll be just knowing their first name.
1. Hailey
Her dad pays her rent. She can’t cook. Litters the kitchen with taking-out boxes from the local vegan joint.
2. Beth
Totally wants you to go to SoulCycle with her at 6 a.m. on a Saturday. The room is littered with leggings and sneakers.
3. Michelle
Comes home at 3 a.m. after a night of heavy drinking. Loudly makes some sort of frozen meal. Sleeps through her noon alarm.
4. Victoria
Probably has dark hair and an acoustic guitar. Keeps pretty much to herself. Does homework in the living room at obscure hours.
5. Madison
Was on the dance team in high school and has not stopped telling you about how great it was. Does work out videos on the TV in the living room.
6. Kim
Brings her boyfriend over every night of the week. Brings different boys home on the weekends.
7. Megan
Actively avoids cleaning the bathroom. Leaves her dishes in the sink. You haven’t seen her shower in four days.
8. Erica
Normal. Quiet. Wants to be a high school English teacher.
9. Erika
Wild. Emotionally distraught always. Is always hosting the pre-game. Never comes home with all of the clothes she left wearing.
10. Sarah
“Definitely should have got into Harvard, but I ended up here instead.” Too into trying to get a 4.0 to pay attention to you.
