The Words I Wish I Had The Guts To Say To My Obnoxiously Loud Neighbor

Why must you be like this?

Dear annoying, loud, pesky neighbors,

Do you think there will ever be a possibility of a silent or at least semi-silent night?

Don't get me wrong, as I love to jam out and play my music incredibly loud, but if it's two in the morning and you're blaring music so loud that I can feel the base through the wall next to my bed, then we're gonna have some issues.

It's not like I sleep very much anyway, but after one o'clock, my college's library closes, and so my quiet space is no longer available. I'd like to go back to my dorm and remain focused on my assignments, read a book... or, if I'm lucky, maybe I'd actually get some sleep.

Unfortunately, I am instead met with music so loud and obnoxious that I can't possibly be attentive to anything that is on my mind.

Half the time, I can't even hear my thoughts through the cacophony of noise.

Loud music is not the only culprit for sleepless and/or unproductive nights spent in my dorm, but also the constant back and forth from your room to other places... this wouldn't be a huge deal if you didn't slam the door so hard that it causes my room/bed to literally shake for a moment or two.

I mean, seriously, why must you be like this?

It is completely unnecessary to wake the entire floor up with your vigorous slamming of doors or your deafening tunes. Couldn't you try to be a little considerate of others?

Sincerely,

An insomniac, yet constantly sleepy, school-centered student.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
