My neighbours genuinely will not shut up. I swear it’s almost every afternoon and evening that they’re blasting music and screaming outside. I have midterms and I seriously do not know how to focus or study with this. Like, I have both earplugs and noise cancelling headphones on, but neither stop the feeling and sound of the bass blasting. The walls feel like they’re actually vibrating sometimes, it’s so annoying. I have a midterm on Tuesday and I can’t focus at all. Also talking to them just made them put it even louder!

For context this is not an apartment, I’m renting a house with friends. We and the girls from the house on their other side have both talked to them and asked them to please quiet it down at least in the evenings because it is so loud we can’t study.

I don’t live anywhere near the university (about an hour away, but gets significantly longer due to construction delays) so I cannot go there frequently to study and the library near me is closed Sunday and Monday.

Does anyone have any tips on how to focus in this kinda environment? Or any recommendations on where I can study instead? (South London) Seriously any help is appreciated, I’ll try anything at this point.

hi! so basically how my bedroom is set up, there is a stove and fridge behind the wall right behind my bed and i really want to put up some posters (the other half of the room is my roommates wall, so can’t over there)

basically i had blue tac up there and it sorta melted, leaving a stain on all my poster corners (very annoying clean up process on the wall too lmao), so i figure it has something to do with the stove (at least i think). is there anything else i can use that won’t damage the walls or the posters??

i have these like poster stickers, but i’m worried that they could possibly melt too now. do yall think they would work or should i look for something else?

maybe one day someone’ll make a comic club 😭😭💪 i just rlly want to meet more ppl into comics and that kinda stuff (i primarily read western comics) and i was wondering if the anime club would be a good place for that??? like ik it’s about anime and ive watched a couple anime’s over the years and totally open to watch more!! i’m just looking for ppl in the same like general vibe as comic readers if that makes sense?? so does anyone know if this club would be good for that?

if so how was it?? it’s an online course this year, but the draft outline on the history department website is confusing af imo, so i was just wondering if anyone’s taken it and knows how it is?

so my nearby dental office is closed for the weekend and i need help please

my nightguard (used as a retainer and for grinding/clenching) was sent in for repairs cause it got cracked and i only got this set like three months ago. they est. 2 weeks before it is done

i don’t have a bottom retainer other than that nightguard, i was never given one when i got this new set.

do i like put in my old bottom retainer that was made 5 years ago? my old nightguard that i used before is pretty painful to put on right now (i think my teeth changed between my old nightguard and new one? it’s hurting the gums the most by digging in and just very tight on teeth) but the old retainer is slightly less painful but hurts on my left molars a lot and has spots for where my wisdom teeth used to be and the left one is kinda cutting my tongue. I’m 19 if that’s relevant.

i don’t know what to do, i’ve already gone one night without anything on the bottom teeth and it was so painful, and i can’t call my dentist until monday, so any advice is appreciated. thank you!

Edit: I ended up putting my old nightguard back in because the old retainer was catching when i grinded my teeth (which i do at night heavily). On hopes and dreams right now that this doesn’t mess up my teeth tonight

(Edited to add extra info :] )

so I figured out my average (between all my courses) as 89.5, does that round to a 90 or go as a 89? (i think) 89 is a 3.9 gpa and 90 a 4.0, so which do I actually have?
