Now, I am having my advanced diploma in outstation. I do stay with my ex-classmate and my present coursemate. And I found that it is hard for me to commmunicate with those who like to waste time and money. As the first day we came to this hostel, we should settle all thg in this hse like equipment, furniture, eletric stuff and so on. Yet, they liekt o waste on on waiting to the next day only settle it! Do you think if u r me, u can stand it?? So I adi decide nt to wait for them but do it on my own n my fren. I noe this seems like do have possess any team work. But, I juz wish to fasten the job, make it easier and convenient to everyone in my house! Am I doing anythg wrong?? Please do advise me! Thx.

When i was still studying i used to live with 4 roommates because at that time is is normal for one room to be as crowded as that knowing it is just few meters away from the school and also it is in the center of the city. So having a lot of roommates is just normal for almost every student who are just renting a room to study. But in my first year of study i thought i was easier for me to live and study in that kind of situation because sometimes it could be fun to have a lot of people and friends around you and you aren't alone after class because the class schedules are different sometimes and your roommates also take up different courses. But as time goes by after ten, i realized that i hated that idea and i don't like it that way anymore. Most of the time after class i wanna rest for a while because tired for luck of sleep from studying the other night , but when my roommates were there , they don't care if you disturb your sleep and they were very noisy talking about anything . Maybe sometimes i could be considerate if what they are talking are so important at that time but it wasn't . They are just chit-chatting about anything that they want and they were laughing so loud that you cannot really rest and go to sleep because it's too painful for the ears. But im not that type of person who is a troublemaker. Even if i wanna stop them but i didn't because im thinking that they were too old enough to understand that what they were doing is out of good ethics and i believe they were very much aware of the fact that they were disturbing somebody already. But not just that though, there are still many other kind of things that i don't like for having a roommate. But then , i didn't have much choice but to just get a better place where im just alone in one room. But in your case, it is so different because it is about coordination from your roommate for setting up the place that you are going to live. Well, for me i think i can still stand with it because i have long patience and if i can manage over , then i'll just do whatever i can.

Yaya..i do can understand ur feeling eventhough i juz stay with my coursemate for only 5 days til now. I can be very patience not to argue with them for anythg. I juz cant stand they liek to waste the time, delay those thg that is urgent! Do you think the damaged pendaflour in bath room is urgent to call an elctrician? They dont do that! And I am the 1 to settle it up! I noe I am afford to do many thg for them. But i dont want to get any trouble! I dont 1 them to have excuse to blame me because I do so much thg. Ya.. it is tiem for me to learn how to deal with such person! Perhaps, they are also not comfort with my life style! Lolz.. I do need have much more patience to deal with them!
