You know, I’m a student, living in a small appartment and sometimes I want to take a nap. But what might happen is this: As soon as I get comfortable, some creepy noise is creeping through the walls and starts playing tricks on me. It suggests me not to sleep.

And then I start to get mad, turning around in my bed and thinking: “Goddamnit! Why the hell did that crap start rushing through the walls at this precise time?! I want to sleeeep!”

This goes on for about 15 minutes. I get some sleep during the next 15 minutes. Then this dirty swine of an alarm clock recommends me to stand up… And so I do. Pissed.

Because of loud music and thin walls.

But that’s not the only point. Sometimes I want to chill. So I take a seat in front of my laptop and relax. It’s when I’m just completely relaxed, enjoying my time that something horrible happens: Some bad piece of music knocks at my wall.

I say: “Stay the hell out!” But it justs comes in! Annoying me. It would be no problem if it was some decent composition but unfortunately, it’s more like an acoustic attack.

So I’m attacked. Defenseless. Not able to relax anymore. Wanting to run away from this place.

This wouldn’t have happened if the walls were thicker or the music wasn’t that loud. Unfortunately, things are like they are.

And that’s why the combination of loud music and thin walls really bugs me.
