Elephants Living on Campus

I am sure that I am not alone is having this experience. Its really a college right of passage. Im referring to being awoken at 2 in the morning by the sound of what sounds to be drunken elephants. However, after being temporarily concerned that there was an escape at the Milwaukee Zoo, I realized that is was just the sounds of drunken undergrads falling up and down the stairs.

It really amazes me that so few people can make that much noise. I also dont understand why these select people think that their loud obnoxious screams don't travel to those neighbors who are trying to sleep. Yes, drunk undergrad, that window you are screaming next to has a sleeping person on the other side. Stop being rude.

Now, I understand what some of you are thinking. This is college and this kind of stuff happens in college. Yes, I agree with you. However, there still needs to be at aleast a little bit of common courtesy for those who actually have to work in the moring. Let me tell you, being up until 3 a.m. against your will and then having to go to work at 6:30 is not a fun experience.

My point this week is short. Just dont be rude. Thats it, pretty simple. Be aware of those apartments around you. By all means have fun, but have fun in your own sound bubble, and dont encroach on mine.
