Sorry for not being ocd clean //perfectionist roommate

Hardly anyone lives alone today,and if you're collage student you must be very lucky. This tells you that I have one - in this case dreaded roommate.
 To make myself clear I never claimed to being super clean. I always use term relatively clean and the same I look in roommate,but this time I didn't choose her (landlady did). We share kitchen and WC, which is fine as long as I have my room,and I do.
We obviously needed to compromise, but she seems to want it like in her home,and I 'm not having it.
If u live somewhere with non family member you need to get this: YOU'RE NOT HOME ANYMORE
SO when you have perfectionist roommate who only doesn't disinfect every corner,and you know it's a fine line, it's hard to get her to understand that one crumb on the table or glass on the table isn't the end of the world.
"We always clean right away after using something" so me leaving glass or a saucepan or maybe both! in the sink which I wash same day (maybe after couple of hours but it doesn't sit for days!) Makes me the most untidy person she knows. Guess what -I cook and there are gonna be dishes to wash.  But my food's perfectly fine to eat but washing after isn't?
I hate lectures and she seems to think she is entitled on giving them. Like I'm a kid "come here-look there's this or that I want it gone" don't you dare school me especially when you can't handle being served the same. You want Sth.- ask nicely.

I think the quality,which is very funny word for This, I can't stand the most is CINKAROŠ,being a snitch. So what do you think she did after I refuse to "submit"?
You guessed it right : she went over my
head to the owner and flat out lied. 1 plate became whole sink of dishes, somehow she concluded I was raised in a pig house,and she never met my family nor was in my house! And then came stereotypes : Dalmatian = lazy. Right we just lay around and drink and do nothing. -.-' Miss perfect. I maybe non typical Dalmatinka in many ways but we know a thing called moderation. We don't work like crazy robots till we drop and then drink to forget about it. We time everything so when you see me doing nothing it's because there's nothing left for me to do-today. Don't judge what you don't know.
 And landlady saw the flat ( when there were couple of glasses to be seen around -  yeah terrible) and didn't think anything wrong about nor did other who've seen it. When you constantly are trying to make everything spotless it makes me think you're desperately trying to hide something. People have stuff- it's normal. So when only you see the problem - doesn't that say enough?

The point: none of your roommates can't boss you around nor you can them. It's a pat sitv. What you can do is what I tried - look just because I didn't grow up like you doesn't make you any better than me. I am willing to compromise and tolerate couple of your quirks but damn me if let everything be your way.
You have a problem with me , I'm not good enough for you -then leave!
I'm not ocd clean but I'm not polar opposite either and if you think that others will be better (not saying that are none,but students aren't exactly housewives) you're deadly wrong. Just wait : cloths on the floor,pile of food with dirty dishes left for days,hair everywhere .Yep seen it
If you have one of these even if you like her otherwise, maybe she's not for a roommate. Anyways good luck with yours psycho,mine is outta here

Self-LOVE (I'm ok w/ being me and so should you be)

Hello people, Ova tema mi je pala na pamet nakon što sam odslušala podosta ljudi whining about how they are not good enough. "Nisam dovoljno lijepa...,predebela sam...zašto bi me itko htio...ostat ću vječno sam...nema nikog s kim bi mogao/la postat friend...." . Pored toga sam se našla nekako u mreži online članaka o sexismu i bullingu,društvenom pritisku koji su me samo fired up. Nije mi jasno zašto smo skrojeni tako da patološki želimo pripadati? Stopit se s masom? Znate ono "love me,love me". Toliko puta sam gledala pojedince u mom okružju kako trčkaraju oko drugih,mjenjaju sebe a za što - da bi neka nebitna osoba im rekla kako su divni,postali dio neke klike -a na kraju im okrenu leđa i smiju se njihovom očaju. S druge strane ti si tu i vidiš ih,ali tvoje riječi im ništa ne znače. Dobijete ono "da,da,znam.." kao kad roditelji drže prodike teenagerima,a oni kolutaju očima. Kad bi otišla doma kod baka (i djedovi su tu),tako bi mi smetao ono "št...

Palačinke na 101 način // 101 way on the pancake

Recently I started cooking more. I possibly even love it,but don't want to admit it aloud. It may have something to do with if  more people knew I'd be 'forced' to cook more and I'd start to hate it,which I don't want. You see I'm cooking for me, selfish? I don't care.  Being selfish can be good for you. If you don't help yourself,how are you going to help anyone else? So if I have ingredients,little time and will and don't want to spend money I'll make some ( Ain't nobody have time for day long cooking,my case 30 min is the limit- I'm a student after all). I like to experiment with flavors and tropical/ oriental food (mostly fruit) but making pancakes is pretty much classic. I've made mine with every sort of milk/dairy possible including soya and other vegan style (and with water if I didn't' have any of it),with fruit,chocolate, without eggs! even flour = guess what?! Everything works and it's yummy 1. Recipe ...
