Evicted

I found out what happens when your landlady sells the house you live in--you get kicked out.  There aren't any rentor protections in this country, I guess, and I'm expected to leave the house before the end of this month.

I really liked that apartment, too--it was big; it had a fridge, a washing machine, and a TV; it was conveniently located above a 24/7 mart; and it was cheap.  I spent the day looking at other apartments, and nothing even comes close.  Looks like I really lucked out on that one.

Anyway, I might have guessed she was selling the place when she kept bringing people in to take a look at it...I mean literally barging into my apartment and stuff.  Then there was the guy who came to my apartment one morning asking what the "rules" for renting to a foreigner are.  (There are no rules).

Well, this way at least I don't have to bother replacing the light bulbs I was saving up for, or clean the patio, or worry about everything around the house that's broken.  Right?
