  <Title>Room for Rent: Female</Title>
  <Body>
    <![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><div><span>Hi everyone! I am still seeking a female roommate to live with for at least a year lease. I have found a nice place that is an 11-13 minute drive to UMBC. I am not sure about the UMBC bus route, but it is a 4 minute walk from the metro bus stop. If you take the 76 at that bus stop, it will take you to UMBC in about 15 minutes. The place is $550 a month without utilities included. The landlord said that there were no previous pest or maintenance issues. It looks beautiful and very spacious! If you are interested, please email me at <a href="mailto:jonuoha1@umbc.edu">jonuoha1@umbc.edu</a>. I look forward to hearing from you all :) </span></div><div><br></div></div>
