i dont really know how exactly to become a good roommate, because i definitely have failed being one during my last semester (in Uni). Throughout the years in my uni, i drove all the way from teratak to S.A, everyday, without fail, without a single whining even when there was a bumper to bumper traffic. Much to my surprise that it was more difficult to staying in a small house with some close friends rather than being stuck in a traffic jam. i would rather choose the latter i.e: stuck in a massive traffic. i thought, as we grow older, things would be much more better. We learn each day to be a more better person but the whole positive views in growing older have came to an end when i happen to be in between the fine line of 2 of my besties' war. One year ago, my friend (a colleague) was looking for a roommate and i introduced her to my friend (we've known each other since my day one in Uni). Time passed by and all i know, yesterday, my Uni friend received an sms from my colleague that she wants her to get out of the house. The sms was kinda harsh and i would classified it as "ayat-ayat menghalau". The thing is, both of them, talk about each other's back, to me. So i've made my own 'judgment' based on both side stories. hehehee i sometimes ketawa kecil because i never thought that this roommates problem is still happening around altho we've all grown so much in all positive aspects of life. _______________________________________ My Colleague bengang because my Uni friend seems to be very very nosy (according to her). My Uni friend would throw her expired mayo, bawang busuk, and bla bla bla from the fridge and she sometimes buy groceries for them both dan tidak berkira pun. But my colleage thinks, she's just being nosy about her stuff. Adoila. Bukan ke tu untuk kebaikan? In fact, my Uni friend was the one who sent her to the hosp when she was suffering chest-pain in the middle of the night. She was the one who packed her bags, brought her lunch, visited her EVERYDAY without fail in the hospital. But then, being human, she just cant see those good things my uni friend have made. and my Uni friend, keeping human, doesnt give a shitE on what my colleague says about her, as if NOTHING has been said and done. For the many, i would say, insane and ridiculous reasons, my Uni friend received the sms yesterday. and for the first time, she burst-out all her non-disclosure issues before this at one go to me, yesterday. She's been keeping it all by herself. Adoila. _______________________________ The point is, can she, live alone in the house? No. I dont think so. Because, she used to call me at around 2 am when i was at teratak. She was afraid because of the HEAVY RAIN. but that was during my bujang days. and with this wedding ring im wearing, i dont think i would be able to entertain all her needs anymore. My priorities have definitely changed. oh, she's not just my colleague, but also, my neighbour. I certainly dont wanna have another responsibility to hold. To look after her; that is. _____________________________ Another thing is, she, never has the courtesy to even say HI to my husband who used to help her with her flat-tyre. ________________________________ When my Uni friend is not in the house, i would be the one who look after all her needs. Dia demam, saya bawak, Mentol lampu pecah, saya teman belikan... you know, those stuff. Honestly speaking, i think, altho she is 2 years elder, i would consider myself as much more independant than her! seriously. ___________________________________________ and there are many many more things, INSTRUCTIONs, DIRECTIONS, my Uni friend and i always get from her. Urgghhhh.. she will definitely HAUNT me after this. |
