Performance Etiquette
Wow, so I just read Pratik's blog (http://maestro.perpetualstroll.org/) and he posts this thing about how the audience should be courteous to the performers and the rest of the audience and if they are unable to control their noise production, they should leave. And all these people start BITCHING about this, especially this girl named Brynne. Like it's a personal attack on her father, who suffers from hearing loss, and can sometimes does not notice that he is being loud. And she goes on about this. It's a personal blog, not something tons of people are gonna see. Sure, express your opinions, but really!! Ayah!
So Yueyue knocks on my door at 7:30 this morning because either she's had an allergic reaction or something has been biting her for 2 days. I don't mind cause I went back to bed for 4 hours... but I wonder what's going on??? She's changed the sheets on her bed, and the only thing I can think of is a flea. Because all the bites/welts are on or around her ankles. And I've had a flea bite me a few times now and it's brutal. Especially when you find them in your clothes. And then have to kill them (which is, by the way, very hard because of their shell-like exterior). So I dunno. I told her to go to SHS and gave he tylenol.
GAH! We went and looked for houses for 7 hours yesterday. 7 HOURS! And we found two possibilities. But neither is perfect. Does anyone have the PERFECT house? I don't know! Anyway, we're looking at a few more today. Well, they are anyway. I don't know if I can drag myself outside. You know I never leave my room on the weekends ;) Ok so,
option 1:
207 Huron
Currently inhabited by 3 boys who painted one room dark green and one navy blue.
Fabulous landlord.
Spacious house, for three people.
Really creepy basement (laundry)
Back porch and nice backyard.
Rent: 1200 + utilities
option 2:
478 Coombs
Basement apartment
Top is inhabited by a male high school teacher
Current basement tenants are three girls who lived the for 4 years
The teacher is the landlord, so fast maintenance (and his place is GORGEOUS)
Nice room sizes, but small living area and kitchen.
BIG backyard and shed.
Swings ^^
Rent: 400 inclusive including phone, cable, internet
The only thing i'm concerned about is noise in the 2nd house. I mean, he has to be up early for work, and what if we want to have a bunch of people over and be loud late at night. Knowing Yueyue and I, it won't normally be a problem, but some random night, like Tuesday night, we might want to get drunk with people at our house. I wonder if that would be a problem. Hmmm.... What do you think??
