One student received a bizarre list of demands from her college housemate who she hasn’t even met yet

Moving in with someone you don't know can be intimidating.

Considering the exceeding prices of rent in Dublin and indeed in other Irish cities, house shares are becoming increasingly popular. We see and hear horror stories from people about trying to move in with others before they start a new job or university, and this story just shows another example of how crazy some people can be. American girl Winnie Chen was just about to start at UCLA when she got roommates assigned to her as part of starting her new college course. One roommate, Ashly, kindly took the time out to e-mail Winnie a list of demands about the house... Please bear in mind, this is before the pair even MET. The e-mail in full reads...

"Okay, so I’m not sure why neither of you responded back to my emails, but I don’t really care, just as long as you both know this and understand that I’m not gonna settle for anything less than what I’m gonna tell you that I’m gonna get once I arrive in the dorm. I’ll take the top bunk of the bunk bed that has a bottom and top bunk. I DO NOT want the single bunk where it has a desk underneath the top bunk so don’t try to leave me with that. I’m also taking one of the white closets. There should be two white closets and I’m taking one of them. I don’t care for which one it is, just know I’m taking one of them. I want the desk that’s near the window. Plain and simple. I don’t care about who gets the bottom bunk but just know that what I stated above is what I’m expecting once I arrive at the dorm and I won’t be in the mood for any arguing or other nonsense because one of you two decided to deliberately disregard this email. If needed be I’ll turn this into a bigger situation so don’t try me. Sorry but not that sorry for the attitude. I don’t like being ignored because that’s just rude, but that’s what you both decided to do so I decided to make it clear now on the kind of person I am and what I will and will not take. So as a final reminder: I am getting the top bunk of the bunk bed with the bed on the bottom, I am getting one of the white closets, and I’m getting the desk near the window. That’s fair enough to ask considering that I’m giving up fighting for the bottom bunk."

Just another reminder why we should all live at home... FOREVER!
