My son and his roommates are texting about who is bringing microwave, fridge, heater, air purifier. That's it. My daughter will be totally different. My friend reminded me that her husband lived in a frat house where they would throw garbage like a basketball, and if it missed, no one would clean it up. And, they drove a motorcycle up the stairs. So no, no matching bedspreads.

Shoe wearing? Weird.

Both our family and roommate's family are Asian-American, so they both agreed that the room would be shoe-free.

Same for my DS and his roommate. The roommate also got a shoe rack for both of them. They also agreed on being minimalists and did not get a lot of stuff into the room. Both agreed to no posters or wall decor, both got plants, both coordinated the solid colors. My DS sent me the picture of the room and it was a very impressive and spacious room. No clutter.

No, they did not coordinate one thing. And guess what everything was fine.

You know what on the first day they didn’t have everything they “needed”, so shocker they went without until they got it
