One Month So Far

So far I've been up in Alaska for a few days over a month.

Things have been different since coming up here. I've learned to control some things, while learning to live on my own without the help of my parents financially speaking. Living within the means that I have has been exceptionally difficult so far - since I only had so much that I came up here with.

Today is another milestone - my new roommate arrives today! I'm kinda of excited and absolutely terrified. I haven't had a roommate since back in high school when I had to share a room with one of my sisters. There are so many odd quirks that I have and I hope we can find our mutual point of understanding and hopefully become friends.

To all my friends who've had college roommates: how did you get along? What kind of advice would you give to someone who's never lived with a non-family member before?


I feel like I'm way behind the curve with this one. Any advice would be helpful.
