The Perfect Roommate

After a long and anticipating summer I finally moved in to my dorm today! I am so excited to decorate my room and put everything together. I must admit I was very nervous to meet my roommate; it almost felt like I was "[joining] out on a seemingly endless blind date" (Hardigg and Nobile). My roommate, Rose, seems sweet but, other than having pale skin and dark hair, I don’t think we are much alike. We found each other through Facebook  but neither of us really had time to get together this summer. Rose seems like she is a very clean person, she doesn’t play sports, and she plans on rushing. I just hope we can get along; after all, we just need to "coexist in a small room together," and how hard can that be (Ingals)?!
