8. Roommate Rules.

Growing up not only did I have my own bed and bathroom, the upstairs of my house had a small den and office. I had more than enough room to roam, I like being loud and sleeping with all of the lights off. Noise doesn't matter to me, I often fall asleep with music or the tv on.
After I chose MC, I had a friend from a different highschool in our town and we decided to room together. We are very different in some ways and alot alike in others. We haven't had any problems, I've adjusted to sleeping with the lamp on because my roommate is a night owl and being very quite in the morning because I am an early bird. We know so much about each other and we have only been living together since August. She is crazy and out there and marches to the beat of her very own drum. I wouldn't have it any other way.
Tonight we had a big misunderstanding, both of us had been bottling up alot of feelings. But after calming down and talking it through, we realized that we both have things we need to work on. I am going to stop eating dry cereal in the bed. She is going hang up her clothes. And just like that we avoided our first fight and reached a compromise.

Oh yeah, I can absolutely imagine how hard it is. I guess everyone here at MC can ;-)
Even though I never had an appartment for my own, I almost always had at least a room for my own. And I need this space because now and then I need to relax and do things for my own.
I'm glad that you could figure it out with your roommate - I haven't been able by now ...
