home is where everything else is.

i have bed bugs now. which means several itchy stings and mattresses either thrown away or wrapped up in plastic so the bugs choke and die. within a year, that is. i am seriously sick of it. this city is making me sick. now, i know bed bugs exist everywhere. so do mice and roaches. but why the bloody hell do they have to be massive in NY?! and not only this, but out of 11 fucking bedrooms in this freaking dorm i live in, all three pests choose my room to spread in. i've had roaches falling on my face from the ceiling at 4am, a mouse eat my ritter sport out of my bag (!!!) and now i have weird stings on my body. i just changed the sheets and cleaned my room a couple of days ago. why does this happen then? of course, i have to clean it again now. and i admit, you will find a little dust in my room, but why is it that when i have dust in berlin, the only things that happen are my mother telling me i have dust in my place, or finding myself waking up sneezing. here, it's one infestation following the other. i just wanna go back to where everything else is. anything that you can not find in NY. and that is a lot. no, new york doesn't have everything. in fact, all that new york has, is a big name, but little to offer.
