Roomies #Giveaway and More! #roomiesbook @lbkids
Synopsis
The countdown to college has begun.
What is your Roomie story?!
I was lucky to have great roommates all through college! Two of them were my Alpha Xi Delta sisters and one was a friend from elementary school that I reconnected with at college. We had many great times sharing stories and creating a fun door room (one year it was bunkbeds using the desks!). Two years was in an apartment with a cat names Spaz who fit the description to a T. Although I remember the one time that I was locked out of the apartment because my roommate’s boyfriend put the chain on the door. They didn’t hear me banging on it, yelling through the crack or throwing things at their window. I don’t remember what it took but I FINALLY got in! Even when I bought my first house I had an Alpha Xi Delta sister as a roommate until she purchased her first house. I wish I had crazier stories with my own roommates but I don’t, but it was still a great time.

The only room mate I’ve ever had was my sister. We shared a room for 15 years! It had its pros and cons, but it kept us close 🙂 We’re only 3 years apart, so we could talk about a lot of things. Thanks for this!
