My mother and I share a punctual trait that, though in some cases can be inconvenient, is generally a helpful trait to have. I am rarely late to class, meetings, dates, movies, parties, etc, and even if I’m generally the first one to arrive (which can be awkward when it’s a party), I never miss anything.

HOW TO: Not suck at being a roommate
Inevitably, unless you’re super rich or something, you’re going to have to live with a roommate or roommates at some point in your lifetime. During college, you might end up having multiple different ones, and trust me, not all of them are going to be picnics.

Either way, follow these tips, and you will never be the roommate everyone else hates. Continue reading “HOW TO: Not suck at being a roommate”
