Well, some people can understand it as inconstancy. And maybe they’re right. “From a certain point of view” (as Obi-wan Kenobi used to say, hehehehe).
The point here is: when I moved to Dresden I went to a flat share with two guys. One of them was (and still is! ) really cool and kind and funny. The other one was just quiet. Maybe shy? I never had problems with shy people, so… I thought it would work.
But the cool guy went to Mexico and the shy guy revealed himself a jerk. A fucking stupid idiot.
Then I moved. I moved to a dorm. I thought: “in a dorm I’ll have parties and good fellows around the clock”.
But I thought wrong.
… sigh… the dorm was a stupid idea. People there live only on their own, they don’t care about the flatmates and… well, I think you got the picture. I really tried to make friends with my flatmates, but… It didn’t work and I started to feel very lonely.
So it’s the twist again: I am looking for a new place to live. And this time I wanna live either cheaper or with cool people. Both of them would be heaven!
Then I started to look for a new flat share via the internet:

and
http://www.studenten-wg.de/
… and the pilgrimage began!
in 3 weeks I’ve visited around 15 flat shares. Not all of the announced ones. Only the ones cheaper then 170€ monthly and located in my favourite parts of the city.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! It’s been such a tough activity!!! It’s so stupid, you need to convince the people who live in that flat that YOU are better then the other 20 candidates… in TEN minutes!
Sometimes it was easy to decide (and decline), since some flats are too bad (I mean, the building is too old) or the flatmates are too dumb.
But sometimes I thought: “wow!!! that’s the place where I WANNA LIVE! The guys are cool, the flat is nice and the price is o.k. … but then… the flatmates have chosen another person! :’(
well, so that’s what I am facing since 3 weeks.
… then… yesterday came.
Yesterday was a very very strange day. For different reasons I had to cross the city by train just SIX TIMES! That means, THREE HOURS! It was an odd day.
And exactly yesterday I went to visit a flat which had a very creative description at the internet site(sorry people. There’s only the German version, so I’ll not paste it here). It was the best flat I’ve seen till now! The flat is very very very well located. The coolest part of the city! The price is o.k. (more or less the same I pay for the dorm), and… W-O-W!!!
Mensch, the flatmates are just COOL! They’re not that kind of stupid young boys who “pretend” to be cool. They’re really funny and easy-going and… well, just like my old pals in Brasil, y’know? I felt sooo good there, we had some beers together and it was so nice… It was just like being home.
Should I raise hope? I dunno. Really dunno. I had this feeling before and thought: “I am sure they’ll pick me as new flatmate!”. And I was wrong!
So now… all I need to do is… wait.
I checked the internet site this morning and the ad is not online anymore.
If they’re fed up of loads of people visiting the flat or if they’ve already found the new flatmate? No clue. But I’ll know on Monday, since they’ll decide by Sunday night.
let’s see… let’s see…
I am – definitely – fed up of visiting flats and telling everybody my story, and lying about my age, and speaking too much and regretting of not being a quiet and cool girl… sigh…
Wish me luck! I hope the guys will “elect” me as their new flatmate…
