Final day in New York...

And what do I do?

Sit at NYFA burning DVDs... hahaha.

And being annoyed by my land lady/housemate about opening a mailbox.

She's at work and expecting a cheque to come in the mail. She asked me to check the mail so that she can come back to cash the cheque and pay me back my deposit tonight before I leave.

I called her and told her that I tried every single key that's in the set and only one would fit. But it wouldn't turn. She tells me that even a 3yrold can open it.... right... Later, a mum and child comes into the building, I asked them if they can turn the key. As it might just be my bad luck that's unable to open it, but she too couldn't turn that mailbox from hell.

I call her again, and explain I can't open it... she complains a bit, then drops out right after she tells me that her battery is running low. The call drops and I'm not able to call her back, so I SMS her and Email her that I can't open it.

An hour later, she writes this:

"I asked you to do me a simple favor. That's the easiest box to open. It takes less than a minute. All mail boxes are easy to open. I don't know which key you're using. You should not ask the neighbors to open my box. I asked you in trust, just to check before leaving home --so I know how to schedule my time. I told you it was urgent to get to the bank today so I can settle with you tonight. You haven't even bothered to call me back. I've been calling and mesging you numerous times. Maybe you turned off your phone. I'm wondering what you were doing in the apt all morning til way after 1pm??? You told me you were going out for lunch near 12pm. You could easily have called me to tell me you were having problems with the box instead of emailing me. I told you to take the 3 keys on the bunch. I've been msging you to leave the keys home and can't get thru to you. Did you lv the keys home? I don't usually bring my laptop with me, but just by chance I brought it today to do some work and just saw this msg 2.52PM now.. I thought I could trust you to do this little favor.

So there's no need for me to leave my work and rush to Manhattan"

She's as dumb as this guy

Right... my phone's been on all day and I have not received her calls or SMS's.

And what the hell does this have to do with TRUST?!

Why am I the one running around trying to help her get her money to pay my deposit back when she should've organised this a long time ago. She knows I'm leaving New York tomorrow since a month ago.
