Room E

I am getting a new roommate. She made her preliminary move while I was home for a week and she in turn was home for a week when I got back. So while it has been a wonderful week of not having a roommate, I am now faced with a total stranger walking in to my apartment, to my room like she owns the place. Which she does as much as I do. And it is weird that this current stranger will be sleeping 10 feet from me tonight.
In the note that she left, she said she would be back today. No time was mentioned. I was up earlier then I would have liked as I didn’t want to be found still in bed. I also got fully dressed. Don’t want to meet the folks in my PJs, if it can be helped. The fact that my suitcases and clothes were strune all across the floor didn’t help.
We were both very close to having our own room. But another girl moved in, and suddenly this girl with who I was supposed to be suite mates, became my roommate instead. The other girl has no roommate. I silently curse her.
It was a weird transition as I was staying yet not all my former roommates who were all moving out had left by the time I did. I didn’t get a chance to organize and clean everything. So I left a note saying that it was okay to move stuff. Yet strange things were moved. Such as in the bathroom there are 6 shelves. I happened to use one of the middle ones. When I came back not only was my stuffed moved to a new shelf but other stuff had been added to it. Weird, no? I mean there were five empty shelves.
I can sense that I might not really like this suite mate but really do not have the energy for drama.
I don’t want to be there when she, my new cohabiter - arrives. So I venture out, wasting time writing this on the pretense of doing work. I feel strangely paranoid about meeting her. And that perhaps I snore. Or so something strange in my sleep as I got some weird vibes from my former roomie plus I oversaw a strange note from another suite mate. I feel like I am an easy person to live with but then again I am a bit biased.
Oh and I moved my stuff back to my shelf. Not that I really even liked it in the first place, seeing how it was a middle one but it felt like the thing to do.
