The infamous roommate: Quirks

The In my opinion, everyone has their weird sides.
And since everyone's weird, no one can really say that others are weird unless an individual has an excessive number of weird qualities.
I understand that I am weird and I'm not offended when someone tells me I'm weird. But I feel like I have the right to declare that my roommate was truly a weird individual.
She had many quirks that I tried to understand but couldn't.

For instance, whenever she steps out of the room even just to get her laundry, she HAD to dress up into her jeans and not-so-bummy shirts. She hardly knows anyone in the building (actually I think she knew one person in the building), but her usual argument was "I don't want anyone I know to see me not dressed up..."

As I am attending a school with greater male population, I felt that it's natural for people to have many guy friends. This is very not true for Ms. Northkorea. I don't know what about guys that always freaks her out, but something about them seems to make her think of them as extraterrestrial lives. That's the only thing that could explain her behavior towards them.
Rarely, I have the excuse to bring a guy up to the door to my room when Ms. Northkorea is up or in the room, usually my boyfriend sending me to bed or a friend helping me carry my groceries. I've promised her over and over again that I would never bring a guy into the room without letting her know, but whenever she hears a guy's voice near the door, she bolts into the bed room. I can hear this from the hallway and always wonder 'Why?? Am I really that untrustworthy? and she didn't seem to have problem with girls before when my female friends came over...' She seems to have no contact with the opposite sex, not because she can't have one, but she chooses not to.

She has many weird things when it comes to her habits in the bathroom. The oddest thing I thought she did was that she never flushed her toilet paper. Instead, she piled the used toilet paper in the trashcan. I'm pretty sure that's insanitary for both of us, and it just grossed me out for many reasons. Also, since I was the one who emptied out the bathroom trashcans, and most of the other trashcans for that matter, I had to ask her at one point in the year to take care of the bathroom trashes herself.

Oh yes, and when she was moving out, she threw away her hair dryer too... which I thought was a big waste.

I think that one dominant way how my ex-roommate expresses her anger is by slamming things. "Things" include doors, drawers, her laptop, books... basically everything she can slam. This occurs when she is trying to intimidate me out of the room when she feels like I have stayed in my room for too long, or she's upset about something else such as her lost tetris game. On of the things that always baffled me was how in the world she has so much time to bum around in school days. When everyone I knew was stressing out about their midterms the next day and deciding whether they should stay up all night, my roommate was watching dramas and playing tetris for hours before going to bed at 12 am.

I think Ms. Northkorea was much more Korean than I ever can comprehend, and more than she ever thought she was herself. Even though we are both Koreans, I feel like I have a choice of how white or Korean I wanted to be. She always demanded that I have to be more Korean for some reason, and she would get upset if I don't. She never understood why my Korean wasn't as good as hers just because I was Korean, and argued that ALL Koreans should be good at Korean. She obviously doesn't understand that people are made of their experiences instead of their how they are born, such as their ethnicity.

These are only the few of her weirdness, but I feel like I'm rambling and I don't want to bore whoever's reading this. I'll continue this on a later date :]
