Wanted: Roommate

My roommate and I finally got to talk about our issues yesterday. She didn't get to read my "loveletter" till Wednesday the 13th, and of course, she was rather upset. She said I could have just knocked on her door and told her that we needed to talk. I told her I didn't know what else to do at that time because she's always out, and when she's home, she always has company--her boyfriend or her friends, so I felt it would be rude to interrupt her. But I did apologize for leaving her a note.

So we talked about all our issues--everything from bills to house rules to her boyfriend's sleepovers. Wala kaming sama ng loob sa isa't isa. But we also realized that it might be in our best interests if we live separately. She knows I'm not comfortable with her letting her boyfriend sleep over. She's willing to keep her boyfriend's sleepovers to a minimum (like when they have early-morning exams at the campus near the apartment), but she's not comfortable with that, either. She told me she no longer feels comfortable living here because she can't have her boyfriend sleep over that much. Ayaw nilang mag-live in, pero gusto niyang matulog lagi dito 'yung lalaki. Ano ba 'yun? Hay...I guess we just come from such different backgrounds. So it's better for us to find other roommates.

She initially told me that she has a friend who lives in a one-bedroom apartment across the street, and that her friend suggested we swap leases. Okay sana, but there's no way I can afford living in a one bedroom apartment. And besides, moving is a bitch. I don't see the point of moving out at this point, since I'll just be here for 10 more months. (And I lived in this apartment first...hello! Konting respeto!) So we later agreed that she'd be the one to move out if we find someone to take her place. There are several places she can stay in, anyway. And if we can't find anyone else to take her place, we just have to put up with each other till July 2007.

So now I have to find someone who is willing to be my roommate-- hopefully, someone who wouldn't let her significant other sleep over. Good luck to me!

On the brighter side of things, here are some things that made me happy over the weekend:
  • I received letters from several friends in CIW :) Although I had some issues with certain inmates the last time I was home, I was still really touched that they wrote me right away. A friend who also visits CIW was kind enough to forward my e-mail to them and relay the messages of some of my closest friends in prison.
  • My dear friend who entered the monastery last year called me over the weekend. It was so good to hear her voice. I found out I can call her on weekends, after all. We did a lot of catching up yesterday, and I'm gonna call her again on Saturday.
  • I got an e-mail from a special friend. Miss niya raw ako. *wink*

Hahaha! Pati ba sinabi ni allan eh pakialaman ni melai.

Naging problema rin namin yan dati sa flatmate, hirap nga magsabi sa simula, pero mas ok na maghiwalay kayo na magkaibigna kesa magkaa-away di ba. Kaya lang bakit ikaw yung lilipat? Di yata tama yung suggestion nya...hehehe.

Allan: Sus ginoo, ura-ura man it imo roommate hadto. Waray gud batasan. Maupay nagbalhin ka nala hin kwarto.

It ak
roommate, nag-insist na waray kuno niya labti it ak mga butang ha banyo. Pero nagpakiana ako kun ano man it nahitabo, asya nakit-an ko ha gawas han medicine cabinet han banyo namon it akon iba nga butang bisan waray ko gamita iton. Later on, nagpasangil hiya, nagkasakit kuno hiya that night tapos namimiling hin tambal ha medicine cabinet. Diri kuno hiya nakakahinumdom kun ano hit nahitabo pero nagsiring hiya na maybe that's how some of my stuff ended up on the counter--she might have taken it out by mistake while looking for medicine. But ever since nag-leave ako hin surat para ha iya, waray na niya labti it ako mga gamit. Bangin na awod gihap. Hay...life!

Uy alayon daw pag-translate it imo comment, may napakiana kun ano't imo siring. Ingat dida!

Taglish Translation:

Allan:
Sus ginoo, grabe naman 'yang dati mong roommate. Pasaway siya. Buti na lang lumipat ka na ng kwarto.

'Yung
roommate ko, nag-insist na di niya daw ginalaw 'yung mga gamit ko sa banyo. Eh tinanong ko sa kanya kung ano nga bang nangyari, bakit ko nakita sa labas ng medicine cabinet ng banyo namin ang ibang gamit ko, eh hindi ko naman nilabas 'yon. Later on, nagdahilan siya, nagkasakit daw siya noong gabing 'yon at naghanap siya ng gamot sa medicine cabinet. Hindi niya raw maalala kung anong nangyari pero sabi niya maybe that's how some of my stuff ended up on the counter--she might have taken it out by mistake while looking for medicine. But ever since nag-leave ako ng note para sa kanya, hindi na niya ginalaw ang gamit ko. Baka nahiya na rin. Hay...life!

Uy, paki-translate naman ang comment mo. May nagpapatanong kung anong ibig mong sabihin. Ingat ka diyan!

Melai: Hehe, ayun, pina-translate ko na sa kay Allan ang comment niya. Basta, nakuwento niya na meron siyang naging roommate dati na hindi maganda ang ugali, pinapakialaman pa lahat ng gamit niya.

Hehe, sige, aantayin kita dito. Uy na-miss kita, sis! Buti nagparamdam ka na ulit, LOL :)

Ingat!

Mommy Lei: Sige ba! Kasya naman ang tatlong tao dito sa apartment ko. Okay lang naman kung mag-sleepover ang friends, basta wala lang lalaki. Hehe :)

Punta ka na dito, bilis! Hehe, parang totoo. Ingat po!

Mommy Ann: Haha, oo nga, pina-translate ko na kay Allan ang sinabi niya.

Tama po kayo, mas mabuting maghiwalay kami ng
roommate ko na magkaibigan (maski papaano) kaysa magkaaway. Sana lang makahanap kaagad ako ng kapalit niya.

Oo nga, hindi tama ang
suggestion niya--hindi tama na ako ang aalis. Salbahe siya, ha. Actually, umalma rin naman siya n'ung sinabi ko na ayoko nang maglipat kasi aalis rin naman ako next year, hopefully. Tsaka pwede ba, nauna ako dito. Ayun, na-gets niya naman ang punto ko. Sana lang talaga makahanap na ako ng bagong roommate. Pray for me.

Ingat po!

Makspogi: Hehe :) Wholesome nga 'yon. Hehe :) Eh nami-miss ko talaga siya, as in sobra. I guess na-attach ako. Tapos paalis pa siya. Sa YM or e-mail na lang ako magkukuwento.

Ingats!
Hello sa iyong mahal...yihee! :)

Ate Malaine: Hehe, oo nga. Wala naman kaming samaan ng loob. 'Yun lang, kailangan ko nang humanap ng kapalit niya. Ipagdasal mo na lang ako. May mga nag-inquire na. Ayoko lang muna magsalita ng patapos, baka may maudlot pa.

Sinong nami-
miss ko? Friend ko, hehe :) *wink*

Ikaw, na-miss rin kita ha. Ingat! *mwah*
