Me & my roommate

Mausam,haal kaisa hai janaab ka?
Adjusting with my roommate has never been much of a hassle for me all these years,coz all my roommates so far have been my friends first and then became my roommates(though i seriously believe ur roommates should never be your buddy) but now the situation is different and I have to adjust to the changed circumstances.Ajaypal,who is my current roommate was just an acquittance when we decided to share accomodation(well it was more of desperate times seek desperate measures).His personality is very unlike me.He prefer things prim and proper and I am more laidback like most things in my life,the problem arises when he tries to "improve" me!(He wants me to fold up the blanket, lying in my room,every morning before leaving for office!!! whatz the idea of doing this exercise??As when i will come back I will obviously pull up the blanket as soon as i land in my bed!)
Well in our daily tussles there is an undercurrent of adjustibility which we are trying to accomplish.Both of us prefer things our own way.Both of us have our own way(different way) of doing things. But still I'm sure we will carry on being roommates coz we know that there is no way out right now!
I dont mind such tiffs at all,infact I find them amusing. He has a few(a lot) shortcomings and I have a few(me????) too,I am glad we have such a big place at our disposal.I wonder what the scene would have been had we been sharing a single room. Dogfights would have been the order of the day!!!
I'm back to studying,exercising.I'm Happy! :-)
Regards,
Ajj Kaim

My Thai roommate has Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and all this while I thought I was the nagger. He has different ways of living and I have started appreciating them. In fact he inspires me now...

Yes, we learn a lot from others while cohabiting in close proximity.. its challenging at times but times never stay the same..
