I didn't do it

.. at least, I don't think so. But I'm starting to think that my uncanny ability to unwittingly rid myself of roommates is bordering on phenomenal. Let me demonstrate my recent transformation into the apartment black widow:

September 2008: LeaDawn gets engaged. Roommate #1 = gone
November 2008: I agree to move into American Manor apartments with Madison, a friend of mine from Scroll.
Early December 2008: Madison's health takes a turn for the worse, and she defers classes for winter semester. Roommate #2 = not anymore
Mid-December 2008: I agree to move to Royal Crest with my friend Chanae Wilson. A week later, she gets an internship. And engaged. Yep, both. Peace out, roommate #3.
Late-December 2008: Becky Leach (who was going to live with me and Chanae) also gets a little sparkler for Christmas. So long, roommate #4.

The moral of the story? If you're looking for a dramatic change in life, sign up to be my roommate. Major life changes guaranteed (satisfaction not guaranteed — see roommate #2).

I have the same ability—I knocked out 3 roommates in one semester. We'll help each other out; Fall 2009 we are living together. lol

Everybody else gets engaged and I get illnesses! This hardly seems fair...but I hope whoever does end up being your roommate is awesome :). I miss you Bre!

Maybe you should start showering more often!

Theory #1-I think this is kind of a sign, Bre. Something drastic will be happening to you soon.

Theory #2- Who am I to argue with the best sis-in-law in the world? ;)

Steve makes a very valid point. I am a very cool sister-in-law.

Um, married of 14 roommates while I was up there. Yep. Not joking
