Upsetment

My roommate has been drinking the past 2 nights. It wasn't so bad last night cos at least she was partially sane, but today it was horrible. She was all tipsy, blasting the music, screaming and shouting, smelt of alcohol, and was drinking with a 3rd floor guy all alone in MY room. I was terribly disgusted and shocked. I didn't flare up, nor did i scold her, but i was burning within. Okay, she's only 19 and i should understand that she's still young and ignorant...but i was hoping she could at least show me some respect that half of the room is mine. Perhaps she's tipsy and doesn't know what's going on, but i really think it this way... if you can't drink, don't drink! It's a horrible sight to be seen drunk. No offense to anyone, but it was just overwhelming for me cos it's also my first time seeing a woman drunk upclose...and i have to live with her for 6 mths.

It's annoying because I simply don't understand what God's plan is. The main worry for me when i first knew i had a double room was to have a room mate that drinks and clubs, cos i really can't tolerate that. I need peace and quiet in my room, and i certainly don't want her to affect my studies as well. It was just so emotional for me, cos it totally ruined my entire day. But, i was also reminded by dear and erlin that i should be patient, and perhaps God wants me to learn to be firm and that she may see Christ in me and change for the better. However so, it's still gonna be real tough for me, and i don't know if it'll make my exchange here unbearable. Please pray for me to be patient and firm yet showing love to her. I personally find it really hard to express my personal feelings esp negative ones to another person....and i thus end up swallowing up all these upsetment and exercised endurance. If i really can't take it anymore, i might just want to change to a single room. Bah, i'll never make myself drunk. Guide me, Lord.
