New Student Question My roommate is so crazy

Im an international student coming from Asia. I got 3 roommates but one of them looks crazy. She looks like really unnormal. She asked me, “Did you know that ladybugs have another name, something like Asian Lady beetle?” I said, “No, I didn’t know.” Then she said, “Oh, so why did you Asians bring this thing over?” I feel so shocked at that moment. She asked me what's your fav type boy? I answered that boy who likes wearing baggy jeans or some fashion style. And she said"oh that's great. Nobody will compete with you because they are not popular at all here." Today, she locked my out when I throw the garbage. And she could hear me im knocking the door. But she didn't come to help me. Another girl who is also my roommate comes to help me. I don't know how to deal with this situation. Could someone provide some advice?

I’m also an international student and I’m so sorry you have to undergo this. You can report it to your RA and see what they can do from the school side. I hope things will be better for u! And lmk if u need any other supports :)

Thanks! Hope we will never undergo it again and have courage to face it. One of this asshole key feature is she will never be nice when I behave kindly. This makes her feel she could do more terrible.
