The Psycho who lived next door ruined my first day!

Ok well most people have heard this story already as it was my excuse for being so tired on my first day at Chelsea but I thought I would write it down anyway so that I personally wouldn't forget. And also so I can look back on this at the end of my year here and laugh. Whilst living at University you are supposed to be opened up to a vast number of different and new experiences,...or at least that is what I was told. However, this one is something that I never wish to repeat. At around 11pm the night before I was due to start at Chelsea I was rudely awoken from my sleep by a rather unexpected sound. This sound was coming through my wall from next door by my neighbor and her rather unusual boyfriend (who was shortly after this event named the psycho's punk rock bin man lover). To cut a long story short this sound carried on along with a variety of loud drumm and base music followed by Lady Gaga's ALEJANDRO!!! (I mean come on who choses to do it to that song but let me tell you I had it in my head for at least 2 days after!) until around 5am at which point out of sheer necessity I must have nodded off. I promptly was woken up from then on at half hourly intervals to the sound of my chair which was residing along the partition wall that separated the rooms, very rapidly banging against it as the wall moved. The next day I started my course. Exhausted I sat for the day drawing from the 3D still life structures that were in front of my asking myself over and over again.."why have I come to London if I am going to be sat all day too exhausted to do my work after being kept awake all night?!?!?!" At which point David Bachelor came over and said to me that I looked like I was falling asleep and was I really not enjoying it or something,..I didn't have the heart to tell him what had happened the night before seen as we had never even met before lol! Upon getting home arguments broke out with this girl who was subsequently ignored by everyone after I had found out that I was not the only one who had a disturbed nights sleep. All in all it was a very eventful first day but mainly I just remember being extremely tired and very unenthusiastic about everything- what a bummer!!!!
