So, I'm the poster from a few entries back who had the girl living in her room. I transferred to an American university this year to spend some time with my dad and his family, as well as some of the friends I made staying with him. I'm hoping this living situation won't make me regret the decision.

I had to kick the girl out when I moved in.

I'd have to smack those wiffle ball punks.

Uhm, I'm pretty sure you could call the police on those idiot neighbors next time they play. Sure, might not be the best for your neighborly relationship, but neither is hitting your cars on purpose!

I agree. Also, it may be against the rules of where you live, and grounds for eviction to have people not listed on the lease living there. You should check the terms of your lease and see what the rules on that are.

Someone giving their boyfriend a key needs to be something everyone agrees on. A roommate of mine did that once and the other roommate and I were not pleased. We found out it was an "accident" - she gave him our spare set of keys for the day instead of giving him HER keys like she should have and he just kept them. We liked the guy, but still, I'd like to have a say in who gets keys to my house.

Ok, the OCD girl needs to get therapy, there's no reason you should have to cater to her her every obsesive compulsive whim. The stuff she is asking you and your roomates to do is above and beyond the call of duty.

Yeah at least you've got the accent. One of my co-workers is english and in staff meetings I could listen to him talk for hours. Americans hear an english accent and no matter what your saying it soulds like shakespeare to us :P

Ha, she just printed out a 'chore chart'...we had all agreed to a flatmate meeting to discuss chores, but she jumped the gun and assigned us all stuff to do EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK. Mopping floors is not an every day chore. It's just not reasonable.

As for the accent, it's the same back around. The southern american accent is like a slow melody...a boy drawls my name (after I've convinced them it's not actually pronounced May-read) and I'm all atwitter.

I've just got now to the point where I only get stopped maybe once in ten minutes. Even my poor American dad just kind of stares at me right when I'm off the plane, I talk so fast.

Another plus to the accent--tend to get served faster at the bars, in a big contrast to some of the pubs in England where an Irish football shirt and the accent will get you straight out ignored for-fucking-ever!
