ekaterinn: (one way or another)

with bombs whistling

Well, that's it. My roommate and I are done. I don't appreciate being screamed at and she doesn't appreciate anyone who can't follow her rules slavishly. I'm thinking of trying to move my move-out date from June to spring break (there's no way that I can both teach and move, not with my sixty-hour weeks). Right now, I'm too mad, but later I'll be sad, because I can't think of her as a friend now, and I don't think I will able to do so again.

*sighs* Bad fucking timing for this, though it's been a long time coming. Why life so hard, people?

Bleh. I know that frame of mind - I dithered for a long time before giving up on academia - and applications are always evil! *hugs* Good luck!

I'm either going to live alone (*bliss*) or possibly with a friend of my sister's who I know is pretty laidback. But I really really want to live alone. I've only done it for a summer when I was housesitting Meredith's condo, and it's not like I could decorate it. *g*

Where are you now, if I can ask? I'm going to be up in NB for most of the summer - maybe I can swing a visit to you, if you're not in New Zealand by then.

hahha, I love the icon you used for this :).

Yeah, this application will be the last of my dithering with academia for a while. I'm doing this for that one last shot so that I can let go of it for a while and focus on teaching and travelling and creating art again for a while ...

Living alone is bliss. Do it!

I'm in Kitchener now. If I go to New Zealand I would be leaving mid-June so if you're back up in Canada by or before then we should definitely arrange a visit or more!
