Abandon my ass. This place is da bomb!

Well guys, the shit hit the fan for real last night. This story requires a bit of background information so sit tight...

I've become very close to these two girls from uni called Louise and Chloe. Actually, Louise is the girl I'm going to New York with. The three of us just really click, y'know? Anyways, Louise and Chloe have been roped into living with this girl called Michelle next year, who is the rarest person ever. She's annoying, she has the worst mood swings in the world, she will get stroppy and moany about the stupidest things and will treat her friends like shit, plus she acts like she's about 5. She just kind of forced herself on them. Now, you really need to meet this girl to understand what she's like, but I'll give a few examples:

Michele Story #1
On Friday night Michelle stays at L&Cs and in the morning she wants a jug in which to warm up her milk in the microwave. L&C do not have a jug. Michelle demands to know why not? and Chloe says "it's okay, you can warm it up in a pan or something over the hob, or use a bowl". Michelle freaks out "You're not listening to me Chloe! I want a jug!" and goes off in a huff.

Michelle story #2
Last night me and L&C were watching Green Wing in Chloe's room but Michelle doesn't like it so she went on Louise's laptop in the room next door. Louise went into her room to get a few things and found Michelle eating ice cream over her laptop, this being a £600 piece of machinery. Louise explained "Can you not eat around the laptop? I just don't want it to get broken and I don't like people doing it, thanks." and Michelle said okay. Five minutes later she came back in to find her still munching on Ben&Jerrys, just not directly over the keyboard, and asked her again not to do it. After a few times, Michelle still hadn't stopped eating. Now, a normal person would be embarassed that they had to be specifically asked not to eat ice-cream in the first place and would apologise and not do it again. Not Michelle. She shouted at Louise, going "I'm not even eating it over the keyboard!" and basically challenging Louise's authority on the subject of her own fucking laptop. Then she goes "Don't you have insurance?", Louise says "No", Michelle replies "WHY DON'T YOU HAVE INSURANCE?", as if it's okay to break her computer as long as she has insurance, and as if any company will give you a new computer just cos you've spilt ice-cream on the last one. She got her to stop eating it in the end, but it took a mighty fucking struggle.


There are other things she's done, bigger stuff, but these need to be explained in person for you to get the full impact. I swear to God, we bitched about her for four hours straight the other day.

Anyhoo, last night I had an essay to write, but you know how easily distracted I am, so I decided to go round and watch my new Green Wing DVD (oh lordy I am obsessed with that show). Michelle's been spending more and more time with them lately, and this is a bit annoying cos, wel, she's annoying. It would be like me wanting to hang out with you guys and enjoy your company, and someone like Darius coming along and spoiling our fun. So Michelle's been doing these little things all week that tick them off and they've just let them go but they've been building up. Me and Louise are down the hall in the kitchen making sandwiches and Michelle goes in to Chloe's room to ask her something and Chloe says "aha" to whatever it is, perfectly innocently. Michelle starts reading into her response, cos it wasn't as enthusiastic as she'd like or something and goes on at her a bit like "Oh, what's the problem?" - I didn't really hear this bit cos I was in the kitchen. But then all of a sudden me and Louise hear

"OH MY GOD MICHELLE I'M SICK OF THIS! STOP PUTTING ALL YOUR FUCKING BULLSHIT NEGATIVITY ON ME! I'M NOT PUTTING UP WITH THIS NEXT YEAR"

Chloe just flipped. Completely. She went on and on at her for about five minutes, then Michelle went off crying in the bathroom (I don't blame her, it was fucking scary and Chloe even scared herself). Louise eventually got her out and they sat her down and told her exactly what they thought of her. It was weird, I've never been in a situation like that before. Anyway, we managed to talk it all out and Michelle promised to change and so on. But fuuuuck me, what a trip. Ifelt a bit sorry for her actually, but she had it coming.
