Sacrifice is a strength

Yesterday Melanie was so bitchy I couldnt take it anymore. She went on about how she hates that she is always with someone and that she needs her own space. And then she made a fuss about the new girl coming.

Here is the thing about the new girl , she wrote us both emails and she seems really loca. Like she asked us dumb questions and stuff, I get it she is probably nervous. Anyway we told her we wouldnt be in Arequipa the weekend she came. Except she told Fiorela that we told her we would stay at the hotel with her and help her with her stuff. Fiorela asked if that was ok. Of course Melanie freaked out and went on about how no one helped her when she came and its not her job. So I was like fine Ill go. I told Fio I would go and that I would bus back with her no big deal. Fio was really thankfull,

The thing that bothered me the most is that Melanie went on about how 'je me laisse faire'. Really I dont get the point of being a drama queen in this case? Yeah for real I dont feel like doing it its not my job I wanted to go to Chivay this weekend but so what? Its a little sacrifice and maybe I do 'laisse myself faire' but someone needs to. And maybe its a good personality trait.

It upsets me that she said that, as if Im weak and lame. I actually think sacrifice is a strength. Its easier to complaint and to say no to something, but saying yes and helping other is harder. Ah sorry this really upset me because I think I am doing the right thing but Melanie is hard on me because of it. I guess we hit the month and a half mark and we are both starting to show are true colours.

To be honest this week I kinda wish we werent sharing a house or that we at least had our own rooms. Apparently it may be as soon as next week, but that's in peruvian time.
