My roommate is a complete waste of space.
Seriously.
I’ve had 4 roommates before her …and she’s literally the
worst one to date.
There’s no stimulating conversation to be had with a young
mom who’s such a “captain obvious” (for example ‘Ms. Vega, your daughter is not here?’ …well, duh, do you see her in the room?!), clique
follower that demands to be treated like a princess (but is willing to be a “lap
dog” to the court i.e. the clique). It’s funny how she sucks up these group of
women …thinking they’re her friend when in actuality they’re truly not. They
talk about her behind her back as well as in front of her …she’s mostly the
butt of their jokes – so where’s the friendship to be had in this?
I don’t “get “ her mentality.
Oh the “princess” part – that’s actually fact. It stems from
the treatment received from her father and step-father …now she expects the same
from this guy she chats on the phone (until sometimes to 2 am ). Still, she knows that she has to
work for what she wants for herself and daughter. Again, this mentality of hers
drives me crazy! Listening to her phone conversations (can’t help it because
she TALKS SO LOUD when I’m trying to sleep – 5:15a for culinary class comes SO
fast) will make you shake your head. She complains about everything …her baby
daughter to washing dishes at a nursing home …to why her supervisor made her
remake a food item after sneezing near it (well, she works in a high risk
populace employment and her germs could get someone sick there …something
learned while in culinary class).
The room is too hot …then it’s too cold – this girl (would
not dare call her “woman”) is NEVER satisfied!
Now, I have resorted to playing my German/Russian rock music
just to get some sleep.
Speaking of culinary class …I’m in my fifth and fast
approaching the tail end of the 6 week classroom part before starting my 3-week
internship. Getting nervous because the test is next Friday! I do study every
night …every moment when I can in between helping out in the computer lab (oh
yeah – I do that too …monitoring the lab on the weekends and then assisting the
basic skills computer class 4 nights a week). Learned they love to see
residents staying busy and focused on things instead of lounging around and
doing nothing.
Besides, I like volunteering …for one simple fact to which I
refuse to disclose here.
Anyway …wish me luck – 80 questions to pass in order to get
my sanitation license (hopefully, my roommate will be gone by the time I start
my internship)…
