quiet hour

May 21, 2005 14:32

I don't understand how people can be so inconsiderate. I have these great room mates, don't get me wrong, but the lack of respect that some of them have for other people, and other people's belongings is something that I've never seen before. Last night I was exhausted, and at 10:45 I laid down to go to bed. With in 5 minutes, I was out. About 30 minutes later, I woke up to a whole storm of noise. I looked at the clock, and it was past quiet hour, and so I said, it's 11:30 and it's past quiet hour. They were quiet for a few minutes, but then loud again. I was laying in bed thinking how could people be so rude? Whenever I see one of my room mates on the phone, or asleep, I am pretty quiet out of respect for the other person, and that's what I expect as well.
It was about 12:15am, and the noise hadn't ceased. I layed in bed for 35 minutes and listened to the noise, and then I listened to them talking about me, and how upset I get when they are loud, so obviously they know that I enjoy my sleep, and that I don't like it when they are loud, especially late at night, but yet they still do it. Finally at 12:45 I had enough, and I said it's almost 1 o clock do you think you guys could please be quiet? And then a few laughs later, it was quiet. I hate being the snot about things, but I battle with this all the time. And then this morning when I woke up, my computer battery was empty, and it had been used, and turned of incorectly. I even have a password on my computer, which is a clear indicator that this is my computer and not the rooms, and yet they still get on to the computer, and misuse it. I've just never met such inconsiderate people before. I know that with community style living, you have to face these battles, and so as far as noise goes, I will just get over it, but when it comes to my personal belongings, that's just flat out rude.
Lord, please just give me strength. I don't want to be a snot, and I don't want to keep all of my things to myself, but it looks like it might come to that. Please help me Lord, I need you.

Until next time,
Shannon
