Ok so i got 2 cornsnakes about a month ago and they are doing fine and everything is just dandy...before i bought them i discussed everything with my roomate several times and it was a well informed decison.
then all of a sudden ...after i have already brought the snakes she says to me that she wont allow me to keep the snakes in the room starting next semester...well what am i supposed to do now...we had agreed to be roomates months ago she was all excited about getting the snakes she helped pick them out and name them and i asked her several times directly that she was ok with this decision and she said she was....
so im like i guess i really cant room with her because i cant do anything about the snakes...she was like ok i guess we shoud go to the thing tonight for people that dont have roomates...only thing is i cant go because i have a chem test.
...so my friend linden came up to my room and i tell him the whole story (ironically his roomate had just told him that they also wouldnt be living together although they had previously agreed that they would) but whatever...so he called this girl mel he knew that was looking for a roommate and she said ok she would be my roommate we went to dinner and discussed it a little and o thought everything was fine…I was so wrong.
So I went to take the chem. test which I probably failed cause I was all frazzled from the day (but the prof definitely named a planet after me on the test…just saying) and everything and when I got back to my room linden and mel were there and they were like well here is the thing mel and autumn( my current roommate) are probably going to live together.
Mel told me and linden that autumn had asked me earlier in the week to be her roommate and we should all talk about it. I didn’t want to talk about it cause I didn’t want to fight I said fine whatever they can just be roommates. Autumn came in the room and linden started telling her about how his roommate screwed him over by telling him that they would not be rommies again. So autumns going on and on about how that was such a jerk move (using much stronger words) and im sitting here not really in the conversation just sitting in the room thinking wow I cant believe you would be such a hippocrite because you did the same thing only worse 1. Because I thought we were actually friends and 2. Because I cant just find any roommate I need to find someone who is ok with the snakes which is pretty hard to do last minute
So next night around midnight linden me and mel are in lindens room talking and mel now says that autumn only asked her earlier the same day as me…so I thought she was just trying to protect autumn or something…well then linden got autumn to come down so we could discuss everything or whatever and I asked her why she asked mel before we even talked about anything and she just turned and looked at mel and said is that what you are telling them to make yourself look better…I was like holy crap thats a twist…
Turns out mel actually asked autumn right after me and autumn had talked about it and mel made up some crazy lie about it so I would be ad at autumn not her but I would have never been mad at her if she would have just told me when we first asked her to be my roommate that she had already asked autumn…
So anyways now im mad at mel for lying and autumn for lying about being ok with the snakes and why she is no longer ok with them and because now I don’t have a roommate that likes snakes so I have no idea of where me or my snakes are going to live next semester…so yea I got screwed…and so did the snakes…
Sorry for being so long I just wanted to rant.
 
oh...and just to add to the list i was so mad i slept in my friends room and i was sore the next day bcause i slept on the floor and i am sick now and i missed all my classes on tuesday (most of the drama was monday) except lab where i went for an hour(out of 4) then left because i felt like crap but last time in lab i told my friend michelle that i wanted one of the salamanders that we had caught for the lab so she stole me one...that was 1 good thing...i have a salamander now.
 
Hmmm either that rant was too long or my attention span is too short. So all I got out of it was you can't find a roomie who will tolerate snakes and a lot of run on stuff after that. Ever thought about living alone? Snakes are good company ;)
 
Except for the fact that I would re-do my whole life differently a second time around, I am so glad I'm not a college student!
 
yea sorry the rant was too long but i was just frustrated so i was typing it out...i wish i could just live alone but off campus would be quite expencive to live alone and there are only a limited number of single rooms on campus and they are fairy difficult to get...if there are any single rooms left i will definately take one but if not im pretty much stuck...no room and who knows about the snakes then...
 
I can't believe there isn't at least one other girl there who thinks snakes are cool. Can you room with a guy?

Yeah, like what she said.

You'll probably be surprised as the number of snake-loving women out there. Put up a notice saying you're looking for a roomie that will tolerate your pet preference. And as for your "friend" and soon-to-be-ex-roomie, et al, forget 'em!
 
well its a small college only about 1400 total students...i know though its had to believe that there is noone...there are a few people that are cool wth the snakes but they already have roomates because my roomate waited to the last minute to tell me so most people already have roomates...and no unfortunately i am not allowed to room with a guy or i would deffinately be rooming with my best friend linden that also got screwed over by his roomate...we did bring up coed dormrooms to residential life and linden is the class president so we are working on it...its not going to happen in time for next semester though.
 
Sorry I lost it with the I probably failed my Chemistry test because of the snake thing. You probably failed your test because you didn't study, don't blame it on the snakes or your problems with current or future room mates. Let me take a wild guess you're not an Language Arts major.
 
That's one of the most poorly composed rants I've ever attempted to read. I'm sorry to hear about your situation, what little I understood of it, but I'm still reeling from dizziness after trying to get through your post a few times.

Sell your snakes and concentrate on your studies, particularly English Composition. Buy more after you graduate and your situation is more stable.

I hope you did better than you expect on the Chem test. :)
 
Wow. I am sorry to bother you with my language skills. I am having an incredibly bad week and was just ranting. I don’t usually concentrate too hard on my grammar and formal writing skills when I am just typing to let out my anger. You do not need to take it so seriously.

I did not fail the chemistry test. That was an exaggeration because I was very distracted during the test about all of the drama that was going on recently and I was already upset. Even if I did fail the test you have no idea how much that I studied for it and you have no right to judge.

I am sorry that everyone now thinks that I have horrible writing skills, but I do not think very clearly when I am angry, sad, stressed, and covered in drama. My writing skills are not that bad when I am thinking clearly, but that is not what rants are about. They are not for working on formal writing skills. They are not supposed to be formally organized writing master pieces. They are just a stream of thought.

As far as the snakes go I think that one of the biology professors is going to allow me to keep them with his snakes in the one of the science buildings on campus if I am not able to find a roommate that will be okay with the snakes.
