My roommates seem really nice but they’re a lot more extraverted than me, they pre-drink at midnight with music in the kitchen and cook/bring friends over in the early hours of the morning.

I really don’t want to be a grumpy flat mate telling everyone to be quiet past midnight, but I have to get up at 7 for lectures and work most days. It’s really frustrating when I get woken up at like 3am because someone’s got friends over, knowing I have to get up in a couple hours for work or uni.

In a pretty introverted person and I’ve tried really hard to come off as friendly, I really want to stay that way but I haven’t been getting much more than 5 hours of sleep for the last week and it’s kinda taking a toll on me 😭😅

For the record I’ve tried ear plugs, they aren’t quiet enough and I find them uncomfortable to sleep in, the same with headphones 😩.

I do love my flatmates they’re all chill people I just wish they were a little more quiet at night 🥹 any tips?

Hello! I am a yank applying to a Geotechnical MSc at Birmingham, and I'm at a loss as to where I can upload my CV. I have a lot of professional and academic experience that would really strengthen my application, but I do not see a field to upload it anywhere.

Is Birmingham unique in not accepting CVs? Has anyone previously applied? Can I upload it as a supporting document after I submit?

Thank you and up the mighty Villa
