Noise is an inevitable part of student life. But in London it is at a fever pitch.
The constant thrum of traffic and the scream of sirens. The lifts creaking every time I change floors and the bang of my front door when my flatmates return home in the wee hours of the morning.
Even me swearing at the tumble dryer for swallowing my money and not drying my clothes is incredibly loud, much to my embarrassment when a shell shocked nurse scuttled off back through the door of the laundry room.
But I think it is music that is the true driving force of student life. Listening to the Germans in the internationals block sing Bon Jovi reaaaaaaaaaaaally loud and accented is both brilliant and hilarious, they loved it.
We gave the Germans Bon Jovi and they gave us 'Disco Pogo!' a rather bizarre dance track from Germany that Stu has totally fallen in love with and plays at such volume security come running.
Student life may have my grabbing for my ear plugs at times (Fire alarms especially!!!) but there is nothing more funny than watching all the guys Disco pogo at 3am bouncing so hard dancing that their trousers are about to fall off.
1 dodgy German mp3 50p, 1 lose of hearing due to wooping and bad music, priceless :)
