Oh, and it gave our room fleas. FLEAS.

哦，跳蚤也跟它一起住进了我们寝室。

While my rooming situation left much to be desired, I know that I probably wasn’t the perfect roommate either. However, my roommate and I were still able to get along together fairly well (all things considered) and managed to end the year on good terms. There are a few basic things you can do to help start off a successful roommate relationship and some tactics to help alleviate even the worst of rooming circumstances.

我寝室的状况差强人意，我知道我作为室友可能也不完美。但是，我们两人仍然能够相处得非常好（如果所有事情都考虑在内的话），我们在和谐的氛围中走过了去年。做到这几件基本的事情，将有助于建立成功的室友关系；寝室局势恶劣至极时，有几样技巧将起到缓和之作用。

Respect Each Other

相互尊重

First and foremost, you need to respect your roommate. I know, sometimes, it’s really hard. But when you’re living in tight quarters with the same person (or people), if you don’t respect them first, they sure as hell won’t respect you. Your parents have hopefully been teaching you what respecting others mean since you were about four. The same rules apply in college as they did in preschool.

首先和首要的，你要尊重你的室友。我知道有时真的很难。只是你和同一个人（或同一群人）生活在局促的方寸之间，如果你不展现你的尊重，你也必然得不到他们的尊重。想必你的父母从你四岁就开始教给你怎样才算尊重别人了吧。学前班的规则同样适用于大学。
