So far during my college years I have completed two Disney college programs DCP for short. Both times I lived in an apartment with 5 other women! This was a college environment with very close quarters so I got the chance to learn a lot about these women. I wrote this blog post to talk about the different kind of roommates we all experience during college.
Friend for life Roommate. Some roommates are just that roommates and after college is over you never see these people again, but sometimes you get blessed with a Roommate where after your program or graduation is over you two keep in touch! You guys visit each other in your home towns and you talk weekly! These are the Roommates who are your lifelong friends! You spent a very big part of your lives together and learnt a lot about that person and it made you two closer! Passive Aggressive Roommate We aren’t all so lucky to be blessed with a passive aggressive Roommate and maybe we were the passive aggressive Roommate! The passive aggressive roommate deals with things indirectly instead of addressing things head on! This person will do something and then post sticky notes or make snide remarks about it but never directly say anything about the situation! Once I was the passive aggressive roommate because I had male roommates who were constantly peeing on the bathroom floor. I posted a sign in the bathroom that read "if you sprinkle when you tinkle be a sweetie wipe the seatie”. That sign did not work there was still piss everywhere. I got tired of it and finally said something and that worked! After directly addressing the situation I finally got the pee to stop! Hallelujah!! I had a roommate who took out the garbage that was overflowing then left notes all over the house. Homesick roommate This roommate is someone who has never been to sleepovers, never went to summer camp, whatever the reason maybe they miss home. They may even have a significant other back home that they miss. They spend most of their time in the dorm facetiming various friends and relatives. You feel bad for them because they miss all the fun that college years has to offer but you also relate to them because of course you miss your folks too, you just go about things a different way. The Mom roommate The mom roommate is the responsible one. Our mom roommate was always decorating for the holidays like Halloween and Christmas! She cooked most of our thanksgiving dinner, which was bomb, and she brought a Tv with a DVD player and Hella movies! We all can appreciate the mom roommates because college or DCP can be a hard time away from home we miss our family, our dorm is ugly and dormy looking, we haven't had home cooked meals. The mom roommate fills this void she's your mom away from home! She also made sure we’re all safe when we went out to party! The rude roommate. This girl talks trash about every single other roommate, just overall rude in general. Only good thing about her is she’s neat. She talks about your other roommates to you and she talks to your other roommates about you. SHE cannot be trusted. Alcoholic roommate. This roommate is drunk every single day everyone is concerned about her and quite positive she should be attending AA Meetings. She wakes up drinking and finishes a bottle before she falls asleep. Dirty roommate. This roommate leaves their stuff everywhere always promising to get it later but after days someone else folds and gets it for her. If the shower is clogged it’s because of her hair. Dishes in the sink probably hers. Her clothes are all over the floor and her bed is never made. Queen of leaving things in the fridge for weeks until it molds. Literally your worst nightmare. The roommates that arent your roommate These people are in your dorm or apartment so much they are basically considered a roommate. They attend all the “family dinners” they put on money for the dorm Christmas tree and had presents under the tree. These friends are in your dorm even when you’re not there and you think they have a toothbrush in your apartment too. You roommate’s boyfriend. There is always one roommate where her boyfriend comes as a package deal. He’s at the dorm all day every day you looked in her closet to steal a cardigan and discovered all his clothes there. He contributes to household duties such as trash and killing rodents. It kind of works out perfectly because you kind of have a house Brother. Party roommate This roommate parties all the time, when she’s sick after work after church after class this roommate parties. You’re not sure if they learned anything in college but they had a good time. You’re also pretty sure they are getting kicked out of uni and it’s just a matter of time! Leave me comments telling me if I left out any roommates also let me know which roommate you were! I would love to get comments telling me about other topics you want to hear about in future blog post.
