Snore me awake!!
This is a true story!!
Strange events continue to happen in the building. Yesterday, I went to bed really late (around 3.oo am) however, I woke up at 5.00 am.
Was it the sun? (I have no curtains and sun light gets in)
-No!
Was it nature calling?
-No!. Then what was it? (you might ask...)
Well, a strange noise coming from my wall woke me up. It sounded like a drilling sound, but not too noisy (like from a battery operated drill; if you have one, you know what I mean). Immediately I thought "WTF"?? It is 5.oo am in the morning! Who the @@!! is drilling?
Anyway, since that sound was definitely coming from the corridor out of my apartment, I thought I should get out and check.
Well, I opened the door and what did I find?
Construction workers?
-No
And the mystery was resolved: At the end of the corridor, outside an apartment there was a guy sleeping in front of the door and SNORING. You could not possibly imagine the noise. It did not actually sound like a snore. It was just a loud sound, almost like the lion's roar (see previous post). Just think that if that noise could pass through walls and be conceived as a drilling sound, how loudly this guy snored!!!
I have seen this person before with a girl that I believe lives there. I do not know if he was looking for her, didn't find her and decided to get a nap outside her apartment or if she threw him out (by the way, judging from his snoring, she would have a very valid reason!!)
What could I do? In a way I felt sorry for the guy that was sleeping outside, (that must be very uncomfortable) and I did not wake him up (though the thought crossed my mind); but that NOISE? GOD!!
Anyway, I got back to bed and tried to get some sleep,which eventually happened 45 minutes later when he stopped snoring...
Needless to say, I woke up really late and headed to the department (where I had to do some grading) at around 1.00 pm.
I just have one question: Since I do have a hearing problem, if that guy could wake me up, I just cannot understand how come other people did not complain? It does not make any sense, unless they just don't care...
Crazy people, noisy people, construction works going on since January....
I am getting fed up with this building...

That's why I left the whole building scene. In the high-rise where I used to live in the west end of downtown, I was on the ground floor, and constantly had to hear people talking in the lobby, people talking while waiting for the elevator, and sometimes, the alcoholic superintendent getting into fights with people who talked in the lobby. Not to mention neighbours who played their music and TV too loud late at night. There was also one time when the fire alarm went off at 4 am because the sauna on the roof was burning down, and the building had to be evacuated. In March.
So yeah, I'm really glad to have my 3½ in a triplex now.
