Ha ha this thread brings my mind back to some of the disastrous housing experiences I had here. Sure others have had some too. In a nutshell:
Apartment #1: provided by the school. Had to share with an alocholic 65 year old. Toilet blocked once. Put note on door: “Don’t flush the toilet!” Came home to a sea of turds.
Apartment#2 (also Zhongbei): Great place, awesome housemate (dude, please come back!) but rat infestation. Cause: woman upstairs kept pigeons as a hobby. Rustling under the bed at night….nightmare
Apartment #4 two storey, 4 bedroom, roof garden. Shared with ex. Broke up with ex. Lived alone in a 4 bedroom place for 3 years….one bedroom was like a tomb..spiderwebs, dust and shit…
Apartment#5: Wow a jaccuzi! In the area that should be the kitchen! No kitchen (i improvised). Loved that place. Came home one day, note on the door. Place had been condemned cos everytime i took a shower (in the jaccuzi!) water would leak into the apartment downstairs…miss that crazy kitchenless jaccuzi bling palace
Apartment# 6 (current place). Go to have a look. Floorboards are totally warped, like bent and shit. Landlord said garden got flooded during the flash flood we had, water poured into the living room. Negotiated a big discount…
Ah, it’s all good…
