Is it bad that every time my roommate opens his mouth, I want to shove my fist in it?
I remember my freshman year me and my roommate got along perfectly. We didn't hang out and didn't really talk much but were both quiet and respectful.
I have never gotten along with roommates. I'm a pretty solitary person. I wonder how I would do with a housemate where we would each have our own rooms at least. I have a tendency to disappear into my room and never be seen, haha.
I wouldnt have a problem with my roommate if he didn't cop out behind the "I'm not American, I dont understand your customs" excuse everytime I tell him to do something around the apartment. I lived with 3 Europeans for 2 years while I was at Fredonia. I know foreigners, granted Koreans aren't european, but that's no excuse to be a lazy piece of shit, and not clean up after yourself.
Also the whole shouting on the phone thing at 3,4,5 am is getting old really quickly. So much so that I'm contemplating smashing his phone next time he leaves it out in the commons room while he's in class
Yeah my senior year we hosted an exchange student (lived in the other bedroom with our third guy) both semesters (coincidently both named David).
The first guy was from Barcelona, never adjusted to American time, so it could be 1am and he'd be leaving the apartment to go hang with the other exchange students. He was very social, so it wasn't a surprise to come home sometimes and find 80% of Europe represented in our living room.
They were all great aside from one instance with a french girl that was a bit too good to eat Cheese-its (lol). It was always fun having political debates and having eight different viewpoints.
Plus the guy had a good sense of humor and didn't mind behind referred to as "The mexican." The other spanish guy's name was Joan (Joe-on), and obviously became Joan of Mexico. Great people.
And the guy used this as his see America tour so in one semester he went to Buffalo, Toronto, NYC, Chicago, LA, and San Francisco (at least) so he could be gone for a week or two at a time.
Second guy was from Newcastle, not very sociable and generally a shut-in, but I got along good with him as well.
