They Are Disturbing Me
Hello everyone, hope you all are having a wonderful time, I wouldn't say so for myself. Because of this light headache am having, I had plans of posting this some hours ago but had dozed off in the office.
We all know how important it is to have a sound night sleep of about 6-8 hours per day. Although with the advent of the internet, television and video games, the proposed sleeping time is becoming impossible. It would have been better if I was really the one keeping myself awake last night, but nah! I was forced to stay awoke till I left for work this morning. And I know what happens if I don't get a good night sleep, I will feel dizzy, lazy and win some cases, I will experience headache.
I know you are curious of what kept me awoke last night, it was my new neighbours whose room is a floor above mine. I came back from my morning shift last week and met some boxes and belongings outside and I knew I will be having new neighbour. They are a family of four; husband, wife and their 2 kids. They are really nice people because the first day, they packed in, they organized a big party for everyone staying in the building, Lot's of food, drinks and a large cake. I was relief since I was the only one staying in my side of the apartment.
I think their niceness doesn't extend into the night, we all know how valuable sleep is for everyone. But my new neighbours undermine this value. Playing of loud music at night is becoming a norm. The first day it happened, I felt they were having a party, I had to sleep with my pillows over my head. Hoping it won't continue the next night.
I was wrong, seems my neighbor are nocturnal beings. Last night got worst, after the series of loud rap music had ended, I thank heaven I was going to have a sound sleep. Then a new noise began, it was the sound of their blender. It went on for a long time, then they began their night play. Oh! I forgot to Mention, My neighbor thinks the best time to play with his family is in the middle of the night, jumping and thumping the floor. It really disturbs me in my room, I could barely close my eye. I think it's not right for me to start complaining to them about their noisy nature but it is really draining me.
Have you had a noisy neighbor before, how did you go about their noise? What measures did you take ? If you were in my shoes what will you do ?

Sometimes having a neighbor like that is so annoying. Because they are not being considerate to the people that surround them, especially if the night is the only time for their rest like yours. You must complain sometimes.
