And because my budget was tight, I had another boring weekend with my two days off from work at the boarding house I was staying at.
Supposedly there are two of us staying here but my board mate went home yesterday so to entertain myself here I thought of doing general cleaning inside.
To be honest, our room is really small and the rent is expensive. I will show you some parts of my rented room but I'm not yet ready to show the whole room because it's kind of messy cause I pull up the things that we put at the side of the room to check how worst are our borders made inside.
This place is a whole house but it was divided into two, the other part was occupied by whole family members that rented also and the other part is the one we occupied but it was again divided into four rooms so obviously the owner is taking good money from it. They live far and only ask us to send the money for the rent through bank transfer and the sad thing is that the owner does not take the time to take a look at the problems in the house, such as the leak in the ceiling. We had to endure it for a long time before when it rained, it really caused chaos, but thanks to our persistence, they finally contacted his acquaintance to fix it.
Now because there is really no maintenance inside the house it cannot be avoided no matter how much you clean the place, there are unexpected borders that escape inside through the broken window and even the door.
One of the intruders is the mice. We thought when we first saw them that they had left because they hadn't shown up since we chased them away by scaring them and making noise to get out of the room.
When I did the cleaning, I found out that they actually only drilled two holes to make a tunnel or I think they made a house because they have a little one who actually peeked through the hole.
Another headache is those red ants and cockroaches that roamed around, especially during the nighttime. We have no clue where they come from since at day period when we are home we can only see them sometimes.
It's really annoying to think that even though we told the owner to clean the surrounding of the house, they doesn't really take any action, they just wants to receive payment. And now it's really messy because it's really eaten our things and it left us dirty so there's nothing we can do but apart from cleaning, we should really spend our own money on the solution.
For now, we will try this first to see if it will work otherwise we might find another solution. Hopefully, it will be helpful.
