Worst Roommate, Best Roommate

What would your worst/best possible roommate be like? What are you hoping for?

I'm hoping for someone who isn't snotty, rude, or unreasonable.

I would hope the guy I'll be rooming with likes sports or has some of the same interests as I do b/c it'd be a shame to room with someone who's like the complete opposite in terms of interests.

Hopefully we won't be enemies or anything.

I'm just hoping for a roommate that I can get along with and is communicative. I don't really are that we become great friends, just as long as we respect each other.

I am just hoping for someone decently clean, quiet and whose boyfriend doesn't spend every night in our room.

ditto. I don't have to be best friends, we just have to be mutually respectful.

Well, I'm opting to keep an open mind. Sometimes, the one person that you might have dreaded rooming with might end up teaching you and opening your mind to lots of things. It's a matter of luck, tolerance, and respect.

I had an aweful roommate at Summer College

She didn't know how to--

-wake up on time by herself
-wash clothes...she was 17 for christ's sake
-go anywhere alone...afraid of getting rapped or attacked\
-keep a secret
- gett ready in time for class

She did know how to ---

-annoy the **** outta me
-leave her clothes all over the damn room
-put ice ceam bars in the refridgerator after i told her SEVERAL times that they would melt!! but oh well, it got all sticky but it was her fridge and hers to clean

Overall--i rate the experience...C+. I tried to just ignore her, push her clothes on her side of the room, and sleep with ear plugs!
