I’m stuck living in this tiny room in an apartment in Cubao. The place is quite accessible, real quiet. There’s a catch - a greedy monster of a landlady. We’re two in a room right now but come November, we may turn into four. The room can comfortably fit two people but four?! Imagine four people living in this tiny little space of a room with a size of 3m by 5m.
Ok.. I told myself I have to move out by October 30 or else I’m going to be stuck there forever! Not only because of the roomfull of people but because the landlady accused my laptop of the increase in electric bills. As far as I know, Meralco increased their charges again which may contribute to the huge amount. But my lappy?! No way. A laptop’s power consumption can only be 45-120watts - like a flourescent lamp! Dios mio! I want to shake her for being such a dumb bitch. Really! And guess what? She’s planning on charging us 300php each for the electric bill! So, it’s going to come out that not only are we paying for the whole house’s rent at 6800php but we’re also paying the electric and water bills! There’s no way in hell I’m going to pay that amount for such a tiny little space. So, one solution. Move. Out.
The cousin was right. I am ready to move out. Only a question of when and where.
