Now that you passed high school, applied to your abroad-university, packed your luggage and set your foot into your university student accommodation, you are about to meet various types of roommates that every international student has to get ready for meeting.
The Messy
We all mess up our rooms and belongings every now and then, especially when we're about to deliver an important assignment or about to get into a difficult exam. But when it comes to other people, they are more than that. Some people will treat the floor as if it is their wardrobe and their beds as their studying desks, and doing the dishes is absolutely unthinkable.
The Neatly Freaky
These roommates are the exact opposite of the previous ones; they vaccuum the crumbs on the carbet even if it's dawn and they will make sure that the very last teaspoon is not left unwashed in the kitchen's sink. You have to be grateful and help a little, but also be cautious when trying to draw their attention to what bothers you.
Partying Chap
Whether it is in the middle of exams or the beginning of the semester, these mates will always find a good reason to party, not alone! They will invite friends over and party hard till 5 AM maybe, so be ready to join the party or do some confrontations.
Nocturnal Mate
University life is different from the work-life that comes later. In university, you can be a nighter as long as you study well and deliver your assignments on time. However, this could be a troublesome if you are a morning person and your mate is a night owl. Some people just cannot function properly except at the late hours of the night. We could also argue that you could be the night own and your flatmate is the sunshine. Either way, you will have to adjust to having someone with you with a different schedule and different lifestyle. What's a college education without learning to accept diversity, right?
Friendly
Even this type has subtypes under it. Who is friendly to someone could be not to others and vice versa. We should then believe that everyone is friendly but not necessarily to us. So you have to get to know your flatmate better in order to know if his character matches with yours or not, because after all university life is incomplete if you are not making new foreign friends all the way.
