3. If you’re able to text your roommates beforehand, make specific plans for once you move into school. Buy concert tickets, make plans to go to the fair on a certain date, or arrange activities to do together. This way, you’re guaranteed to spend some quality time together before you go off and make new friends. There’s no better way of breaking the ice than going out and having fun with your roommate.
4. Learn their favorite songs. I had no greater fun with my roommate last semester than dancing and singing like a bunch of idiots to our favorite songs. We had at least one Blank Space dance party every day which led to insanely funny pictures and videos on PhotoBooth. At the end of each semester we would go through all of the horrifying footage we took from our terrible dancing/singing days, providing us with hours of laughter during the dreaded finals week.
