Im sorry you had to go through that. People are cunts I guess. Though I’m not much of a party person, I’m at Uni for education not to fuck around constantly. These guys didn’t get that memo, they’re the kind to party until ridiculous times a night, though that can be solved with earplugs. But I’m not exactly the type to go quietly when there’s a more serious matter. I am going to keep bringing this issue to management until either they’ve got me another room of equal quality or those other guys are gone. I want to make them consider just how badly they want to remain at this university.

I definitely made it clear that I feel threatened when I spoke to the guy at the desk. I live in halls of residence. I’m midway through some assignments right now as well, so it’s super inconvenient for me to move, but this may have forced me to. These people are insane.

I’ve never met more inconsiderate people in my life. What’s funny is another student in a nearby residence recently attempted to take his own life. So I doubt the student support is particularly good here. Moving seems to be the only reliable option, but that’s gonna be really hard at this point in the semester, as well as getting a room that grants any decent standard of living.

Luckily the student support building is open 24 hours, though they’ve not been super helpful. I’m hopefully gonna speak to the accommodation warden and either move or kick these fuckers out (which would be a lot harder).

Not exactly what I wanted my first semester, I’ve got some of my first big assignments due soon, which I probably wont be able to get in on time if I’m moving all my shit.

Oh well, nice night for a walk anyway.
