I am working on my midterm. I came to the Shapiro Undergraduate Library because my roommate's loud and obnoxious girlfriend is staying at my house.

This place really needs to be renamed the Shapiro Undergraduate Cafe.

Oh no, are people being loud there too? I'm very lucky that I live alone other than my 3 young cats.

This ought to make you laugh: so I was reading on of my textbooks and came across a word in blue font that I wanted defined...I touched the page. Nothing happened. Now I can't stop laughing at myself!

I feel for you!  I can't relate to the noisy roommate when studying, but when I was in nursing school, I lived next door to a crazy old man!  He was constantly hammering on the wall that we shared. It sounded like he was going at it with a sledge hammer. 

I would be sitting in my living room in complete quiet; no radio or TV on, just sitting there studying, and suddenly there would be this loud hammering against my wall, so hard that it made my floor shake.

I complained to the caretaker a number of times. Seems he had issues with a tenant either above him or above on the other side of him.  Nothing anyone said to him would convince him that I wasn't the one making the noise.

After living next too him, I can certainly see why some neighbours reach their breaking point and kill each other!!!  I wanted to ring that old man's neck!!!

Have you considered looking for another roommate; or talking to your current roommate about the disturbance?  Perhaps you need to set down some house rules?

Well, he's a good friend of mine, and I've lived with far, far horribler (this is now a word) roommates. I'm talking the kinds who come home at 2am, drunk and pukes all over the bathroom floor; the kinds who say "if it's yellow, let it mellow, if it's brown, leave some to be found" with regards to the toilet bowl. So this roommate is a huge improvement. Good guy, respectful, clean (sometimes I feel like a slob next to him) and considerate.

His girlfriend comes by once or twice a week, so it's really not all that bad. I just can't stand to be in the same room with her. :p But I don't mind leaving the house to give them their privacy, since my roommate is generally considerate, so it's only fair I let them have the house a couple of times a week.
