Roommates

Where do I begin?

I have been living in this nice spacious two bedroom apartment for about a week on my own. I like the company of other people, but going into housing blind is always a nerve wracking situation. There are several possible outcomes, and I am hoping for the best, preparing for the worst.

It seems awkward to be completely finished unpacking, and pretty much living in a space when someone comes in with all their boxes, I tend to avoid it because I'm not a fan of confrontation of any sort.

In all honesty though, it hasn't been too bad so far. Sure there have been a few bumps and unexpected surprises, like one of my new roomies just coming in the room while I am typing this blog, the other deciding to room with me, unpack and completely move her stuff into another room, or hoping I do not get stuck with the semi-quasi foreign roommate who seems to be quite mysterious. Through all of this I am just going with the proverbial flow. It seems there is nothing else I can do.

I've also been through this before a few times.

So here's to hoping roomie no. 1's boyfriend keeps making a great breakfast when he stays the night here, roomies no. 2 chooses my bed room to share, and to hoping they all don't thikg I'm an alkie when they open the fridge and see how much beer I have in it.
