"I would not willingly live with drug users!"

But, you are or you wouldn't be there.

Try speaking with a lawyer. If you do a bit of research you might find one willing to look into your situation pro bono given your status as an under-funded student. You won't know if you don't try.

Considering your drug using room mates and your concern with being arrested for their criminal acts, you may find (with your lawyer's input) the apartment management willing to release you of your lease requirements, maybe...

Then there's the press. They might be willing to help. Imagine the severely ugly PR the apartment management would garner if the press got wind that they're insisting you pay $7000.00 or live with drug users.

You can probably think up better ideas than these "IF" you really want out from under possibly being arrested and serving time...but yeah, it'll take effort.

Or, keep telling yourself "everything's fine" - everything's OK" - "I've got nothing to worry about"

You know the old aphorism: Denial ain't just a river in Egypt!

Hey man, so what?

Just because I live in a time bomb environment I'm not afraid.

Dope smoking roomies are no biggee in this day and age.

When my roomies do get caught, it'll be obvious I'm not a weed smoker, right?

Hey, hey, what are you doing with those cuffs...stop it, stop it, snuffle, cough, cry....

The people here are giving you advice you didn't ask for.

O.K., I understand.

When you're arrested and go to jail or even prison which is inevitable, remember, you were advised well and chose to ignore good, practical advise because your self sabotaging behavior was ignored by you and a lack of getting off your butt to do the smart thing wasn't for you.
