lainie in perth-still! @ Oct 1, 2004 6:50 PM

Worst night of my life. Well, maybe not, but not too great. I spent last night at a different hostel than the one before. It's a smaller hostel and looks very nice. I was put in an 8- share mixed dorm but actually there were 7 girls and 1 guy. Supposedly, quiet time at the hostel should be 10pm but I didn't get much sleep last night because of the following events:

1. Around 11pm when most of us were in bed, a girl came in, turned on the light and then left. Then she came back about half an hour later and loudly apologized to all of us for turning the light on. Of course, no one responded, we were asleep right? She then brought in a guy to the room and they made snuggly noises for awhile until she told him to leave. No whispering here and the guy's voice was so loud. Ugh.

2. Until 3am there were people right outside the room having some kind of party on the balcony. I guess it's just unfortunate that the room faced the back.

3. 5:30am a mobile phone rings. The girl who was apologizing for having the light on answers and begins to have a conversation with "sweetie" with no attempt to even be quiet. Finally she realizes it and leaves the room to continue her conversation.

4. 7am Seems our room faces an alleyway, so the dump trucks start up nice and early.

5. 10pm-8am- mobile phones ringing in the room throughout the night. I HATE MOBILE PHONES!!! I don't know why people can't turn them to silent in the middle of the night.

 I am so tired. Think I"ll go buy some earplugs and find a different hostel. zzzzz....
