Pretty ok. Rice was very mushy but vegetables were nice and crisp. Could have used more sauce. Trader Joe’s has so many good frozen entrees that I don’t think I’d get this again, even though it’s definitely better than other things I’ve had.
I live with 3 other guys. One of them is a LOUD thrower-upper. A couple of them went out last night, and this morning one of them got sick pretty aggressively. I just left the kitchen so I wouldn't have to hear it as much. He seems fine now, but I'm just wondering if anyone has any tips for how to handle being around that in close quarters while not looking like a bitch? Feels like such a lame fear imo but despite all my progress it's still just really unsettling to hear that so loudly in my own house.
This is a temporary situation and I am moving out in three days (!!!) so this is more of a vent than anything else.
I've been working in a research lab in another country for the past few months, and have been living in short-term study abroad housing with 5 other people. The roommate in question and I share an actual bedroom. I've never met anyone so frustrating.
We've been here for three months and he hasn't unpacked anything. His suitcase sits open with dirty clothes spilling out of it everywhere. We literally have huge closets in our room. He's done laundry ONCE. Never washed his bedsheets. It stinks like fuck and I have to have the window open constantly. I brought this up to him once and he refused to speak to me for the rest of the day.
He uses more dishes than anyone I've ever met and then doesn't wash them. We have a dishwasher, he just doesn't put them in there and lets his dirty dishes pile up all over the kitchen counter and kitchen table. He stays up all night and then sleeps through the day, so every morning when I wake up the kitchen is a mess despite the fact that my other roommates and I clean it every night. How does one person produce this many dishes.
He spends all his time on the couch so nobody else in the apartment can sit there.
He leaves his dirty underwear and pajamas on the kitchen table. Leaves used tissues and cups of his spit everywhere. DOESN'T SHOWER.
He snores crazy loud. This was more of a problem when he went to bed at the same time I did. Now that he's nocturnal, and especially now that he stays on the couch the whole time, this is less of an issue. I still didn't sleep well for a month despite mentioning it to him all the time. It sounded like a fucking jet engine in our room.
He genuinely never leaves the house. I think he has summer classes, but I've seen him go to them only a handful of times.
Other roommates and I have tried to talk to him but he just shuts down and withdraws. I don't know if he has issues. Doesn't matter because I'm going home in THREE DAYS!!! Loved my time here but I've never met anyone so obtuse. This doesn't even scratch the surface of what it's like to be around him. Thanks for reading ❤️
I am an American college student studying in Copenhagen this summer. I am going to have to shop for and cook my own meals during this program. I can cook, but typically don't (dining hall) and I'm assuming Danish grocery stores are much different from American ones. What do you all tend to buy, make, or eat in a week? Thanks everyone :)
