Roommate Exchange (X-Posted from OD)
Ah. The drama of the roommate situation. Just when I thought things were starting to move along just swimmingly between Tanya and I, the room next door opens up an empty spot (with a girl on a similar schedule), and Tanya's moving out. The biggest tension between us was the fact that we were on such different schedules... she gets up at 8am, and I get up between 10am and noon. She likes to go to sleep at 2, I like to go to sleep around 4ish.
And so, the girl next door and she both start classes at 9am. So Tanya's moving over there. :( It was just last week that she and I stayed up until like 4am one night just jabbering away, and I felt so immensely happy with my decision to stay on campus again.
I guess I just don't like change. The idea of someone completely new and strange moving in really terrifies me. So I'm going to try and coerce a mutual friend to move in (although she's terribly messy, and is on the same schedule as Tanya, she seems less organized and focused, and stays up later, I think). Who knows. Tanya says she mentioned it to her, and the girl seemed ambiguous about it. Which confuses me, because it was just 2 or 3 days ago that she was ranting and raving about the atrocities of living with her roommate, Becky, and how she was "so going to move in" during the Spring, when Tanya will likely be studying abroad.
So I'm a little sad and a bit anxious at having to deal with this new situation. Argh. And why the week before my first chemistry test?! Maybe I can have the room to myself for a week before someone moves in. And just when I thought things were finally working out.
