I\u2019m a very easy-going person. Very few things get to me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Very few.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But lately, I\u2019ve been struggling to\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You know what? Let me just tell you the whole story. It’s more like a rant, actually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have you ever had a safe place? Somewhere you go or something you do to let out steam and ease stress? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, I do. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For me, it\u2019s music. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Everyday when I get back from work, I turn my bluetooth on, connect to my speakers and go to my safe place while I shower and get dinner ready.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At least that was my life, until last week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A new person moved into the apartment next door, and I wish that didn\u2019t happen. Tolu, my new neighbour, has desecrated my safe space, and I don\u2019t find it funny at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One day, I got home and noticed that the once dusty door across the hall had been cleaned, and the lock had been changed. I didn\u2019t make much of it until a few days ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since then, every single time I get home and turn my music<\/a> on, I hear Tolu\u2019s voice singing out loud, along to my music. I don\u2019t have that much of a problem with it, as long as Tolu sings on a key that exists. But nooooo\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sigh, I don\u2019t know what to do. Now I can\u2019t play my music because Tolu would start to sing along. I have to sit in silence or plug my earphones in. It seems like such a small thing, but I was really looking forward to my safe space all today until Tolu happened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I would use earphones, but it\u2019s not the same. I love it when I can almost feel the sound waves move across the room and fill the air. It\u2019s what makes it so precious. Ugh. I have the worst neighbour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is such a random story with no real point, but what is a diary<\/a> for anyway?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I honestly just came here to rant because I don\u2019t know what to do. Should I go over and let Tolu know to stop singing along? Or maybe I should find unpopular songs that Tolu would not know ? Hmm, please what do you guys think? Send help ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ugh, I’m just going to sleep. I’m too tired for this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hmmm or, maybe I’d just call T. If there’s anybody that would know what to do, it’s T.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Talk tomorrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Love,
Ope ?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
