A month after former housemate M left the apartment, I couldn't help but compare her from the new ones that has set/will set in (aside from her paying the monthly share promptly).
For one, E doesn't like sleeping in the room which she tagged as "infested." I never got that comment from the previous occupants like A (my roommate now and M) when they moved there. The problem is, E doesn't like cleaning that much and only sprays the room. How will she not expect for mice,cockroaches to co-habitate with her?
She sleeps at the sofa. While I see it as a discomfort with her curling her legs to be accomodated, she doesn't seem to mind.
I am still waiting for L (the 4th roommate) to move in completely. She will only bring in a few clothes and promises to move in but because of her busyness, she can't find enough time to move in. I think she can have 2 lives and still be busy. She has yet to buy a double-deck bed for her and E and I think E is waiting for it that's why she is holding on the sleeping-on-a-real bed and cleaning up the room routine. I checked the room and it is indeed in need of a little dusting. I guess I have to nudge her more to do some tidying up a bit. I am sounding like a mayordoma.
I wished I searched more for better housemates.

I came from two consecutive weekend vacations (one from Vigan and then Baguio) and already I think about my next travel destination. If I can have my dream job, that should require lots of travel.
