Living with a roommate

Remember in ‘Moving into Dorms’ I let you know how worried I was about who I was going to have to room with, well, it’s all the way bad! I’m an easy person to get along and I’m accepting of others knowing we are all created equally but different in many ways. I have an interest in most things so it’s easy to relate to most people. There are a few pet peeves I have, however, and it seems my roommate possess most of these pet peeves. Why me?

Music and I have a great relationship. I love most kinds of music! Two things I’m not so fond of, heavy metal (unless it’s raw talent) or hard core gangsta’ rap (unless it’s old school)! My roommate and I had this discussion, I told her it distracts me and makes me a bit tense. She agreed it bother her as well. Well, she has her favorite music downloads and plays them often. The music goes from something we both like to heavy metal then to hard core gangsta’ rap then back to heavy metal. Ugh! I was so excited thinking we were on the same page. I guess not.

The other big no-no with my roommate is that she is a mess! Clothes everywhere, food wrappers left out, old soda cans and such! I’m surprised our room doesn’t smell. So, I lied, yup I did! I told her I had horrible allergies as well as asthma and that dust is a big factor in my health complications. We will see if she takes heed to that! Only time will tell.

Okay, it’s not all bad, my roommate is very sweet, uber cool, and she is very smart. I believe if I’m patient with her and get past her bad choice in music and cleaning habits we will do just fine. She has taken some of the courses that I have taken and may be a great benefit as a study partner. Again, time will tell.
