Fuckin Room mates

Zenia, the fact you find anything above 15 Celsius hot is very abnormal, there is a reason why 21 Celsius is considered to be room temperature: It's the temperature most people find to be comfortable.

The reason your bills were likely so low with the temperature set at 15 is because it doesn't take much heating to keep it there, especially if it's not winter.

The house I live in right now doesn't have much in the way of insulation and the heating is therefore kept a bit lower to keep the costs from going insanely high, so it's usually 16-17 and I find that to be cold. My computer keeps my room comfortable once it's been on for a bit, but even with wearing my house robe over top of my clothes when I leave my room I can feel how chilly it is.

I think I should buy a thermometer to put in my room. I know that my room is MUCH hotter than whatever the thermostat is set on. My workplace is set to 21 or 22 and it is much more comfortable than my room is when the thermostat here is set at 17. Maybe my room is just the best insulated? The front and back door all have drafts and the bathroom window has a draft and part of the living room window is broken (roommates broke it) so it has a draft as well. When I am outside in summer and the natural temperature is 20, I am fine.

our heaters are broken. They only work when they're turned on all the way. this leads to the heat being on full for about 34 hours, and heating the house to the point of a sauna, and then leaving it off for a few days until it's unbearably cold. I feel sorry for the lady on the 3rd floor, XD

And this is why I don't have "room mates" and never will.

Wish I could afford not to have them. T__T I used to be able to, then work tanked.
