Well...it's not normally in your home!

ah so you mean in residence, gotcha. well, i don't think it's that weird. people get ellipticals and tread mills and stuff. really, what's a giant bag full of dirt designed to punch and kick? takes up less space than the aforementioned items

True, but I wouldn't have any of them in my home. I'm not sporty enough. Would it be expensive to get?

i don't have the slightest. i imagine it might be a decent chunk of change. i figure we'll go halfsies on it... that is, should i choose to live with her.

and on that note, i am sort of in a bit of a bind. my roommate has mentioned moving out in a tone that is more like she'd be moving with me. i have mentioned recently that i do not want to stay where i am not, but that was it. it seems pretty obvious that she thinks she is coming with me and i haven't told her otherwise since i don't have a clear cut plan yet. i intend to tell her with enough time to find another roommate should she want one. it just doesn't sit well with me that she is of this mindset. it might seem a bit deceitful but that is not my intention. what do you think?

I mean, if you really think she thinks that, it's best to clear it up as quick as possible. Better not let them get too set into wanting to stay with you. I didn't think you were getting along with your current roommate.

well the thing is, we've never really been friends but that made it ok because then we didn't get too close and made it so we don't fight really. we've never really had an argument and it's easy to be honest because we aren't invested in each others feelings. that sounds cold i reckon, but it served it's purpose for over two years now.
anyways, there are things that i don't like, like some of her more unsanitary/gross habits and some of her friends, and even though i've told her how i feel about certain things and hoped to find a sort of compromise, it would seem that she lacks respect for me and does all these things anyways and more so. i suspect she does it more so on purpose to irritate me passive aggressively. a bit of a pussy way to fight, really. that's why i just use straight up confrontation because not only does it solve the problem quicker but it makes her uncomfortable; she shies away from confrontation

No, that makes sense. It's not really cold.
It really sounds like the two of you should split ways though.

yea i think it's time. i hardly stay in one place for so long anyways. i think i need someone more compatible and someone who respects me and i think saying it that way doesn't so much place the blame. i'm debating on whether i want to sort of maybe let her know the things that makes me uncomfortable and not want to live with her anymore and see if maybe she will change. i don't want to risk because she could say she would, then doesn't, and my opportunity to leave has already gone and i'm stuck again. sooo maybe i'll be honest, but have tact and hope for the best.
hey thanks, kat [yes] for letting me hash it out with someone (aka you). it's nice to get an unbiased opinion/advice

honest and tact is good.

haha, maybe I can come live with you. XD

if you can pay half of the bills we could have a deal [lol]

I got paid today! Does that count?

if it's enough to pay the rent, electricity (and it's high because we have electric heat), and cable!

I don't know how much I got paid. Yeah...I need to activate the card still and look at it.

that's great!

It's dead because for those of us on the other side of the world, it's way past bed time.

That's normal.
Alright. Work wasn't bad today. I only messed up a little and not while dealing with customers.

Starbucks. I've almost been working a month now and I'm still clueless half the time. It's my first job.

Yes, there's quite a bit to learn even without trying to make the drinks. I never went to Starbucks but a few times before working there.
You're too young to work!

thanks.
I'm 23 and didn't work before that. Unless you really need to, I think it's totally fine to not work until you're out of school. Put off the hell for as long as you can.

You're whole life will be working after school. No need to start early. My parents would kill me if I didn't get a job soon. It'd been a year since I was out of school already. I'm always jealous of people with the sort of education and interest to get into fields like that. I somewhat doomed myself with my art degree I don't want to do anything with.

And I think I'm gonna stop being too lazy to go to bed. Bye!
