College birthday

Have you ever had a roomate who’s birthday was the same month as yours and it was the day before yours? what was it like?

Back to back partying?

My roommates birthday is December 14 and mine is December 15

This is usually a dealbreaker for most people. You should probably find a new roommate with a birthday much more compatible to yours, such as March 8th or October 17th.

Unless you go to a quarter school you’ll probably be too tired during/ after finals to party.

Not the best college birthday; Dec 15th’s right during finals.

Here’s what will happen:

When the date nears by, either you or your roommate will issue a challenge- birthday right by combat. You will engage in a duel to the death with your roommate, with thoughts of a surprise birthday fueling your vicious offensive. Eventually, the strongest of you two will emerge victorious, while the weaker one will be left as a husk on the ground, forgotten for all eternity.

And then you get your bday celebration right before finals. Congratulations :slight_smile:

If this is a serious question, it is just like having two birthdays two weeks apart, especially if you have different groups of friends. I have a pretty common seeming birthday, so I am used to sharing birthdays with classmates. But yes, Many if not most schools have exams during the weeks around your birthdays.

No, it’s not a dealbreaker. I’m pretty sure it’ll be far more convenient to celebrate both at the same time.

I wish I had these sorts of problems.

My summer roommate and I both coincidentally had the same birthday. We were paired off completely randomly, but I secretly suspect a residence life conspiracy. We got up, wished eachother a happy birthday really loudly, and went our separate ways. Since he was two years older (turning 21), he went out to celebrate with some friends and I celebrated with my own friends. He brought some champagne back to share and I gave him some cake, so overall I’d say it was a pretty successful day
