Today

I am super unhappy today. I miss my bed, I miss my room, my tv. I just want to curl up in my ikea chair and watch syfy all day. I can watch syfy here, but its not the same. I don't mind the constant noise I have gotten used to it, the weekends are worse around here than weekdays because I live on "tourist ave". I wish I had taken some time when I was first accepted to this school to find a place. it was hard though because all of the sublets were for immediate use, and its really difficult to find a furnished inclusive place. This place would be fine if it weren't for the construction. Two things about this piss me off to no end, 1. this renovation and construction was not disclosed to me on any forms and the one paper I signed does not mention any of it. After speaking to a family member who is a lawyer, the NY state right to quiet enjoyment is clearly being violated here, and I may need to take these people to court if they cannot remedy this situation. 2. the other thing that pisses me off is when I am awoken at 8am on the dot by hammering and drilling directly under my feet, and I am forced to wake up and get my coffee and zombie my way through the day, and then at 9am all sounds stop. There hasn't been any noise from the construction since 9am..thats it, just between 8am and 9am loud horrible hammering from multiple people in several areas of the ceiling below me for an hour, and then silence..assholes, I am starting to wonder if they are doing this on purpose. Like someone told them that I complained so now they go directly under my room at 8am and start banging on the ceiling just to spite me! I wish I had known, but obviously this company did not want anyone to know about this until we had moved in, paid them over 13,000 dollars and had nowhere else to go. I just wish I could have waited. I wish I had money to lightly furnish an apartment...I wish I could find something in Chelsea or the Meatpacking district with a more neighborhoody feel. This place is too touristy, it doesn't feel like home. The neighborhood where my school is, well its more like a neighborhood with cool markets, bars, restaurants, farmers markets..kinda reminds me of west hollywood...which I miss badly..I am starting to wonder if I can live like this. Maybe I am just sad right now. I miss my friends, even though I barely saw anyone anyway. I miss my mom, my family. I have met some cool people but I am lonely.99% of the people that live in this dorm are 10 to 14 years younger than me. The cool people I have met at school so far who are my age don't live around here. They all live in Brooklyn. The plumbers are here. My toilet has been pouring water out of the top since Monday flooding the floor. I have to move my mat every time I flush. Its Friday and after my harassment for the last few days they have finally come to fix it.
