I’ve been sleeping with the doors and windows open to let in
the breeze lately. I don’t really want
to buy more electricity credit before I leave, and my air conditioner doesn’t
really work that well anyway.
So any sounds that the people living around my apartment
make at all hours of the night just drift right in. This includes construction starting at 6am,
babies crying…all the time, and badminton games to begin the mornings.
Today, I awoke to a loud conversation. I was sleepy, so I just tried to ignore it
for awhile. Soon, I was wondering if
these people were actually in my apartment.
It was so loud. If it hadn’t been
6am leading me to believe I was delusional in my sleepy state, I might have
gotten up to see if they actually WERE in my apartment.
Turns out there are new tenants in my complex. They live below me, but leave their door open
frequently. Contributing to the “babies
and loud conversations in my apartment in the middle of the night” syndrome
that has been plaguing me. Luckily,
taking naps in the middle of the day is really acceptable (and everyone,
EVERYONE participates). So I’ve started
participating too.
