Today, I accidentally locked myself out of my room. Yes,I left my key in my room. I must admit that I was born to be careless. Its like one of my very good personality traits that God figures, I won't be perfect without it.
It's not my first time, if u are wondering. When I was staying at previous my hostel, we will have the resident assistant from each level to help us keep our backup key, just in case anyone lock themselves out. That was a brilliant idea for clumsy people like me. It's way more convenient and efficient. But now, I can no longer have this kind of services because I changed into a new uni with new hostel.
New hostel is fine, my room is big; sometimes I even wonder why do I need to have such a big room for myself. What I like about my new hostel is that, they allow you to cook. The stove for students to express their cooking skills. Not gonna go in detail, not paying to advertise the Hostel anyway.
Back to the topic, I don't know if is just me exaggerating things or it's really just how everyone way of reacting.
I have a question,
"If your housemate locked him/herself outside his/her room, what is the first thing that you will do?" Or "What is the first thing that you could offer him/her, if u do not know how to unlock the door"
U don't have to answer me. Remember to think twice before answering either one of my question & not forgetting to put yourself in the situation. Instead of answering, go the other way round by asking yourself what u want your housemate to do?
Because what I got today is, disappointment. I asked a hairpin from one of my housemate, I tried to unlock the stupid door myself with stupid hairpin and I am sucks at unlocking it. So I failed. Then I sit outside my room, trying different method by using scissors, or cards. Still, I failed. I do not want to give up. I seek advice from Mr.Youtube or Mr.Google. Conclusion is still the same. Then, I started to be mad at myself and tears start rolling down my cheeks. I wipe all the tears, and tell myself I shouldn't be crying right now, it won't help. I have to be strong in handling complicated situation. So, I stop crying. I stand up, try and keep trying until my hands got hurt, that's when I decided to stop.
I called the locksmith, guess what, RM65 service charge for unlocking the door. I mean are u serious? I try to negotiate the price with him, and he was like "why not u go and unlock yourself if u think u can do it?" And yes, I can't but charging RM65? Hello. I might as well break the whole fcking door and smack you instead?? Excuse you! Mind your words. So, I rejected him.
Frankly,I got so frustrated with everything, one of it is because no one really helps me or make effort in helping me in my situation. From the start til the end, it's only me helping myself. U ask me where is the others? They are staying inside their own room as if nothing happened, also not forgetting to ensure their room door are locked. What a beautiful world.
I am just going to sit outside my room until my owner get back from work. *not sure what time* Then, pay the penalty of RM20 for leaving the room keys inside the room. It's called, rules & regulations.
By the end of this blog post, I just want to say, is not relying or expecting helps from the others when the problems is yours. But, to give what you are able to give because u will never know when u need helps from them.
Not too bad experience,I assumed? At least now I realise who is my friend.
For my JANGANNN group's and friends that tried so hard to helped me up, thank you!!! Maybe I am not talented enough to be a thief, I guess. Hahahahaha...
A friend is not the one that can make you smile, but the one that will never leave, whenever u need them. -amelia's
