I can't believe she didn't even TRY. But at least you ended up with a more normal roommate after that!<br />I didn't go to college. :( No good stories here. When I should have been in college I was couch surfing and sleeping in parks.

We haven't spoken since that year ended. But I spent another great two years in the dorms with the same roommate and then we lived together after that in an apartment with some other friends from the dorm. I recommend dorm living for the first year. You are forced to make friends! Your story kinda stinks though. I mean for you. I am quite sure it had nothing to do with you!! But you almost got a single!<br /><br />HeatherBURIED IN BOOKShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18205451716054533728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6907235505822471522.post-59899142142932557142014-01-11T13:13:54.143-05:002014-01-11T13:13:54.143-05:00I've never had a roommate in my life.

It's awesome and the best four years of your life! I loved college and would relive it again, but I guess some people have a hard time.But seriously…hiding in your closet? Priceless.

That's truly a shame. I mean I met those people who are so connected to their family, city whatever and that stops them from chasing their drams. I'm glad you managed to pull off that year and I'm sure you had more fun later on. Great story Jenny. PS. I've never had a roommate, being a singe child and all that, plus I study in a city I live in so there is not much to tell about.

It did get better the following years (different roomies). <br /><br />This book actually sounds really clever and unique.

She was Goth but friendly, and I was fascinated that she studied Russian. I would ask her to speak it to me. But when January and February hit, I was so wrapped up in twice daily swim practices that I didn't notice how depressed she was getting. She withdrew from school to get treatment at home, and impressed me when she later returned to our school and graduated on time.

My uni is like an hour away from where I live. YAY for me! Personally, I don't think I could have adjusted all that well being away from home plus the added burden of work.

My hubby had an interesting experience. He went out of state and the first night in his new dorm, the phone (a desk phone with cord and rotary dial) rang in the middle of the night. His roommate who by all accounts seem perfectly normal before they dosed off, sat up and shot the phone with a gun he had under his pillow. Now this was an elite school, and needless to say, after all the chaos his roommate never returned. surprising the phone still worked...LOLKimberly @ Caffeinated Reviewerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15658833731713991138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6907235505822471522.post-61477934661956121562014-01-10T18:17:58.363-05:002014-01-10T18:17:58.363-05:00My roommate and I didn't know each other until...My roommate and I didn't know each other until we met, but we are still BFFs to this day.
