Electrified!!!!
zzzzzzzt! That was the sound of an electricity of shock running through me when one of my roommate finally admitted the electricity bill during its peak in winter. FYI, there are a total of 4 girls sharing this apartment. Each and I repeat, EACH of them paid more than USD150. In other words, the total bill for a month in winter was more than UDS600!!!!!! And I am pretty sure she rounded it down.
That was why nobody wanted to tell me the exact amount when I went to view the apartment. This crazy electricity bill can possibly be the deal breaker for me. Honestly, I am half thinking of moving out already. I am living with three taiwanese girls who do not know how to save electricity during winter.
Basically, they left the heater on all day and night. YES, NIGHT!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!!!!!!! For those who are not familiar with life in a cold country, YOU DO NOT LEAVE THE HEATER ON AT NIGHT!! Unless you are very rich or living in a hotel, that is. Just go and get a damn warm comforter+fleece blanket or worse come, an electric blanket! You do not freeze to death in the warm cocoon of your bed!
Erm, as I am ranting here in Starbucks, I see a girl put her shi tsu into her pink checkered backpack, and walk off with the cute shi tsu's head poking out from the side of her backpack. SO CUTE!! I miss the crazy stress and responsibilities of taking care of a dog all by myself. The constant worrying and the inability to participate fully in the life of a single girl overseas. Not that I am really doing much right now anyway (See my previous post).
