And everything was going so well….

Listening To  The whine of the aircon
Feeling  Tired

Perhaps a little too good to last, but last night the unthinkable happened…

However, first some good stuff :)
So I met with Chizue after work to go out and get some food. First we went to an akonomyiaki restaurant, drank loads and ate loads too. I think I went over budget a bit, but I haven’t seen her for like 3 months - so I’m sure I was allowed to just this once.

We then went to the cheap drink place I went with Yumi last time, to get rid of the last of our money - haha - I think in total I spent £20. So £15 over budget (or two days money) - hmm… will have to cut back today and tomorrow then. So that was all great, had a great time, but had to go home as I had work.

Got back and Yumi was round, which was nice so we sat and chatted for a bit. However, it was getting late (maybe 12:30 or so) and I wanted to go to bed. Now we have problem, everyone is still up, watching tv and chatting on the phone…. ok i figured, this only happens a few times, so i’ll leave it…. however by 3am and still it was going on - i was getting quite annoyed. It seemed though that then it was to finish, so I managed to settle back down.

Until everyone decided to take a bath and shower!?!??! So noise up until 4, then to top it off - Yumi was staying over (so sleeping in the front room) - who then proceeded to text her friends all night.

I really thought everything was ok now, but this is just getting ridiculous. I’m going to write Seiko a letter or something, but I don’t think this can go on - after work I’m going to go to the estate agents, see how much my own apartment would cost. I know I’m on a tight budget, but I would prefer to pay a little more just to be able to have my own room, get some privacy and be able to sleep :(
If this had been tonight and I had school the next day, I would have been furious…. hmmmmm….

So basically, now I have woken up late, feel awful and just generally annoyed with everyone. But seriously though, who is at fault here?? Do I have a right to be annoyed, or is it the girls fault for buying this stupid apartment in the first place - thus they should live with the consequences….?

I did look into swapping to Shiho’s room, but sitting in it just made me feel like I was in a box - it’s too unfriendly and just depressing. The bars on the window and the fact you can’t put anything up on the wall just makes it seem like a prison cell….

Ho hum….
