passive agressive

I'm a light sleeper. But I swear, I've been more than patient with the dude upstairs. At 4 in the morning, I'll still be awake counting sheep or trying ANYTHING to help me sleep. The varied beats of his bass make me want to scream! Then yesterday, I went to bed breathing a sigh of relief because I couldn't hear any bass. But as soon as my head hit the pillow, I could FEEL the beats of the bass coming from... DOWNSTAIRS!

WHY ME???

To make matters worse, they play terrible trance beats and the sound is ISOLATED to my room. My suitemates never hear a thing. But when they step into my room, they make sad "I feel so bad for you" faces. Do these loud losers find me? I haven't been able to catch a break since I moved out of the house for university 5 years ago. The fact that the noise is isolated to my room is a huge problem for security because even though they want to help me, if the dudes don't answer the door when they knock, they can't go in. So i just have to lie awake and wait until those dudes decide to go to sleep and turn off their music. :( School is getting so tough this semester so I'm not going to let those people take my Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday sleep away from me (sigh). 

No more passive aggresiveness. hehe. I left a message with the Property Manager and we're going to address this issue on Monday. It's in the contract that those dudes can get evicted from their disrespectful behaviour. (Not that I want to do that... I'm so scared they're going to come after me!) Hopefully we'll just be able to work things out and that they'll at least be TOLD to stop playing their bass after 12. Sigh. If all else fails, my roommate is going to help me though. 

School night. 3 in the morning. She'll hold the broom and I'll hold the heavy textbooks. And we're going to start thumping and dropping 'em non-stop. She likes to fight fire with fire. Haha. Can you see how much I'm at the end of my rope? Sighhhhh!

But to end with something awesome, my very talented cousin submitted a cute t-shirt design to Threadless (an online retailer of cute/funny t-shirts). Click the "like" button to help him actually get the t-shirt printed! :)

Here's a picture of my little monster cousins jumping on the bed on their first visit up here:


I sure miss them. :(
