In Singapore, the price of a property is forever as high as the sky above. This even higher when you are (1) single and (2) not a citizen. And best is, both (1) and (2) is applicable to me. Argh! For people like me, the only option to survive in Singapore is by renting a room and either you live with your landlord or you live with another tenants. Great. Say bye bye to your privacy. After having done this for the past 8 years, I have listed the three irritating things of living at someone else's house. 

1. House Rules (which does not make life easier, sometimes)

I realise the importance of rules. After all, I don't want someone staying in my house to live like a pig. But some rules when you are living in someone else's house in Singapore can be considered quite strict. The most common ones are no usage of air-conditioner during the day and no cooking allowed. The first is tougher for me because Singapore is freaking hot and humid. Staying in my room with a fan does not make me feel cooler in most days. But as I don't have enough money to buy my own place, I suppose I still have to endure this kind of lifestyle. U_U.
