What is wrong?!

I guess it started after the "why 4 person use the right side shower room while 2 person use the left side shower room?".

What's wrong with that? Do I only wash one side of it where there's cleaning inspection? So why can't I use the side that I want? Maybe it's causing inconvenience. Fine. I switched to the left side. Then?

The tap thingy just fell off, so I wrote a note just to ensure they know. It wasn't even me that made the thing fell off. It was loose, like that fella just put it back on after it fell off and when I turned it on, it bounced off. It frighten me, so I assumed it might frighten someone else too. That's why I left a note there!

What happened?

"Go to the office let Andrew know for any maintenance issue, do not expect someone will do it for you." Something like that. Whoever wrote that. It kinda pissed me off. You're not using the shower room is it? And I bet the times you drop by the office is more than I do.

WTH. I wrote the note, so I'm responsible for the damage?! Fuck you. You don't have to care. I don't care.

So I replied with, "nobody mentioned, that's why."

Someone wrote, "it's a wear and tear thing. Nobody damaged it." Something like that.

LEAVE A NAME LA! I don't know who to confront when I want to. At least I did leave a name, for every note I left. Come tell me if you're unsatisfied with anything.

Today, Teing heard them saying about bitchiness. Probably they were referring me only. I guess it's because the way I wrote the notes.

Whatever. I'm so glad it's my last semester and don't have to stay any longer.

And please la. You're not even friendly to me when you're at home. Don't pretend you are when we're outside with someone else around. At least, I feel it that way.

Gosh. Housemates.

sounds like chea hwey to me lol

This is different case la. Not like, it's your thing, you settle it yourself. It's not.

I know Hwey would say that if that's the case.

"I know Hwey would say that if that's the case."
Not me lah.

_VeL_ said...

I know it wasn't you la. I can recognise your hand writing.

I meant, if the case was it's your thing, you settle it yourself. You would say that. Won't you? Or something similar to that. HahA

nicole said...

ahhh i get you now. just, sound really like how hwey would talk to me hahahaha you know, the whole mummy/guardian/disciplinarian talk

_VeL_ said...

HAha, I know. She really sounds like that la. Sometimes only la.

Cathy C said...

Yes.that sounded like Hwey. But I think they are referring to, if something happen, you should just go directly to the office, not just leave a note there. it's everyone responsibility (that obviously includes you too, since you found out about it - even though the person before you knew about it but doesn't even warn anyone, that is the person problem, being inconsiderate)

_VeL_ said...

Because before she left the note there, I've no idea who to tell. So I left a note at the shower room.

If she could just tell me nicely, without "Do not expect someone will do it for you", I would go to the office.

You said it's everyone responsibility, then why the hell she said it that way? I can just leave the matter that way too. I don't freaking care.

Cathy C said...

" If she could just tell me nicely, without "Do not expect someone will do it for you", I would go to the office. " - Yea, I agree on that too.

BUT

" You said it's everyone responsibility, then why the hell she said it that way? " - Maybe because she's not the one who spoil it? Because she's the next person who use it after you? It's the same feelings like, if you happen to see a note there when you want to use it, you will tend to think that why the person who wrote it did not directly go to the office (of course without knowing that the person who wrote it wasn't the one who spoil it and found it at the first place)

_VeL_ said...

From the start, I didn't know who to tell. I didn't even know have to go to the office. She's the Housing Officer, so why she can't fix it?

She's not the person spoil it so? I feel uneasy of what she said.

I can't really get what you mean for the last sentence. You bracket things, seem complicated to understand.

It means why not you stand in her shoe thinking that she doesn't know about the person who spoil it? Because in her mind, you are the first person who found out that it was spoiled.

P.S : Not too sure how your hostel works. Because I don't really see why must the Housing Officer do every thing for you all, because I think she's right (Each and every of you has responsibility)

_VeL_ said...

First of all, that toilet is used by 3 person. Teing, me and her. I don't use that side since the begining of the sem, and that day I just used it for once, i found it spoiled.

And the whole point is, why can't her tell me in a proper way?I didn't expect her to fix EVERYTHING as a housing officer, in fact, she does not fix EVERYTHING in the house. We don't rely on her either.

I said that "she's the housing officer, so why can't she fix it?", because she left a blardy note there. In fact, she can also go to the office and let the office know about it. If she can't, she can let us know. Not saying, "Don't expect someone will do it for you" will solve the matter. And obviously, it pissed me off.

_VeL_ said...

And, if she thinks that me leaving a note there made her feel I have the responsibility to tell the office, she should have let me know. I left my name there. The MAIN POINT of this post is, her note pissed me off. Nothing more than that. As I highlighted it.

So ya. I feel it's nothing to talk about responsibility.

Cathy C said...

Hahaha.. okay okay.. just telling you maybe in her point of view.. Oh, if like this, probably it was her who spoil it? teing would probably go ahead to the office if she was the one who notice it was spoiled before you... Then why you didn't confront her straight? Ask her in person. Make things clear before she accuse you. Notes can be a bad thing, people can always interpret it wrongly.
