Disclaimer: This post was never published, even though I wrote it way back when. I am now including it as a reminder of where I have been and where I am going. There were some really tough times back in Vegas, and this was one of the first signs it would be tough. Was I right to complain? Who really is the judge to say yes or no....all I know is I moved on, and we had a good student teaching experience. I am sure I did some frustrating things too, but since me, my little quirks and I are being totally honest with you, I am publishing this post, unaltered.
I am frustrated and annoyed with my roommate. I never could figure out how when I lived back at home I didn't have a roommate and I didn't have to have one. Now that I am at school and am paying to live I am forced to live with someone. I hate having to shut out the lights at night because I have a roommate who goes to bed at 9:00 and can't handle a darn noise during the night. I hate having to shut my computer off because the small humming noise it makes keeps her awake at all hours. I hate having to get up an hour earlier than she does so I can get ready in the morning-even though we leave at the same time-just because she never even let the thought cross her mind to be courteous to me and let me sleep in....I hate knowing that the second the bathroom door closes behind her is the second that I lose any hope of looking decent for the day because she monopolizes on the bathroom and likes to do everything naked while I am outside wondering what is taking her so darn long. I hate her messes, I hate her opinions about my friends, and her empty promises. I don't hate her by any means, we are friends, we do a lot of things together, but it is always her way or I am going to hear about it, and I am annoyed by her today. I don't want to graduate from college and move back in with a roommate...I should be able to find sanity and be able to live comfortably. Yea you probably think I could move my computer out of the room or shower at night right? Well think again...the other roommates can't stand my computer out of the bedroom because it isn't attractive...I had it out there for a few weeks and I know it frustrated one of them a lot-also taking a shower at night runs water and the other girls complain that is sounds like it is in their bedroom.

I am just complaining today, but I am frustrated and I had to get it out before I head off to school to teach. This morning I woke up early enough to take a small shower before I headed off and as I woke up-20 minutes before my roommate wakes up, she woke up too and tells me that she is leaving early this morning...why couldn't she tell me that last night, or tell me that she is not taking a shower so that I can plan around it since I have to always plan around her. So I guess I am used to people making me decision for me....so now I have to make one for myself and I can't seem to do it.....this sucks!
