My roommate was new for the Fall semester. This was her 3rd college. The last one she was in, someplace in Florida, she had gotten a full ride to for playing volleyball, but lost it because she got caught drinking and her mommy and daddy couldn’t pay for it anymore. The first time I met her, I came back from somewhere and she was already getting ready to go out and her friend was using our shower, something that she didn’t even ask me if it was okay. Then a knock came on the door and a whole parade of obnoxious freshmen came in (I could tell they were freshmen because they were waaaay too dressed up to go out). Now, don’t get me wrong; I have no problem with her going out on the weekends to party or getting ready in our room, but just ask first before letting someone I don’t even know use our shower. But I then turn around and see she has a bunch of huge bottles of Vlad vodka in her hand and she’s mixing it with Gatorade and Turkey Hill tea and giving it to the freshmen. As someone who is only 20 and an education major, I can’t get caught with alcohol (which, even if you AREN’T an education major, most people know). Needless to say I was pissed. But oh no, that wasn’t even the tip of the iceberg. The following weekend I went back home to work. When I came back to school on Sunday afternoon, there were empty pizza boxes thrown on MY BED and other crap tossed on MY DESK. She had also been caught earlier that weekend smoking weed in our FUCKING ROOM. Seriously, we LIVE ON CAMPUS. If you’re gonna smoke weed, go somewhere else and do it. She also left our bathroom a complete mess and threw her dirty nasty towels on the floor. When I confronted her about the alcohol privately (and when she was actually SOBER for once), she promised me she’d get rid of it. She never did. Now, I’m not a tattletale, I’m really not. But when it comes to MY education and MY future that is coming out of MY pocket, that’s when I get pissed. I went to the housing director and told her, who met with my room mate and told her to get rid of the alcohol. My room mate (who we will call “ginger bitch”), was apparently “so sorry” and would get rid of it “right away.” Nope, she didn’t. And, she never DID apologize to me, she just ignored me and pouted. Then when I would either be trying to sleep or study, she would make a point of blaring her loud music or inviting her friends over, one of which CLIPPED HER TOENAILS NEXT TO MY TOOTHBRUSH. I was at the end of my rope the night that happened, but more so when ginger bitch came back after partying and was so intoxicated that 2 big guys had to hold her up. She came falling back into the room calling me a “bitch” and a “c**t” and threatening to kill me. At that point I was done. I called the campus police, but sadly she got away before they could find her. I later found out that she had alcohol poisoning that night and had to be rushed to the hospital. I honestly wish they would have just let her die. Oh, and the housing department? Didn’t do a damn thing until I had sent almost 3 different emails to them complaining about her and how awful she was. Their response? it would take a whole FUCKING MONTH to get her ass evicted. It was either that or I’d be the one to have to move out, even though I didn’t do a DAMN THING WRONG. Eventually, though, she decided to move out on her own and live with a bunch of her party slut friends. A few months later, I heard through some people who went to high school with her that she spent most of her time when she lived with me bitching about what a “little snob” I was and “how weird I am; all she does is study!” Bitch, it’s COLLEGE. Grow the fuck up!!

Sincerely, a pissed off Elementary Ed. major
