....Is It because I'm Black?

This whole "Trying to find a roomate" game has made me very weary :-( For a month now I have been trying to find just ONE classmate to move in with me in July. Ive had a few people act interested then they somehow make "other" plans. Well......I know no one wants to address the elephant in the room so here goes: Is it because im Black? I know, I shouldn't be so pessimistic and likely there are other plausible reasons. But this is the only logical one that comes to my mind.

I mean.. I keep getting the same: "you sound so cool to live with....but im going to keep my options open."

...umm, ok O_o

So far it seems that I am the only African American in my class ( I pray that during orientation I discover otherwise) but with that thought alone I am a little nervous. What if I dont make any friends :-( I pray they accept me.

Enough of sounding pathetic...I really dont want to have to get a one bedroom and have to take all of that financial burden PLUS live alone in a new city. But... its slowly looking like it. Im giving myself 30 more days to keep playing this game. Then im signing a lease for a 1 bedroom and not looking back.

Lord, If it is in your plans please bless me with a roomate!
