Myself and 3 other girls (acquaintances, if anything) are planning on renting an apartment together. The plan is to get two rooms (bunk beds in each) and, if possible, two bathrooms.

Does anyone have tips on this sort of thing? What sort of ground rules should there be when living with roommates? Is having 4 girls in one apartment even advisable?

I strongly oppose this decision. I live with room mates now and its the most God awful thing ever.

UMMM...depends on your character and tolerance level... Personally I require ALOT of space, and cannot room w/ other people well... 4 years ago (i was 18 then) i roomed w/ a girl who was 15 and our living space was probably about the size of a public restroom. OMG it did not end very well.

Four people living in one room would be awful.

Is it really that awful!? :\

The other alternative was living by myself but that's 1000+ which I don't have.

We're sort of a mishmash of girls. I'm already anticipating that for sure. But, I don't know, hopefully we won't kill each other.
