She Got Called Out By A College Student In A Note Shared With Her Whole Apartment Building Because She Had A Birthday Celebration While The Girl Was Studying
About two weeks ago, a college student who lives in this woman’s apartment building went door to door– but the greeting was not friendly.
Instead, the student visited every single apartment on her floor– as well as the floors above and below her– to warn the other residents about upcoming college exams.
In other words, the college student claimed they would be studying and told each neighbor that they “better not have any parties until the end of May.”
Now, she did admit that the student was “somewhat kind.” And it was obvious that the student was going through a stressful time due to final exams.
So, she opted to be compassionate and agreed not to host any loud parties. But, she did tell the student that her birthday was coming up on May 5– meaning that on Friday night, she planned to have a couple of friends over and play low music.
While she was just trying to be honest, though, the college student immediately got annoyed with her– telling her she “better be quiet” during her birthday celebration.
“I didn’t like her attitude, considering the fact that I was trying to be empathetic,” she recalled.
“And I also told her I’d not do anything for a party besides low music and some friends over.”
Anyway, on the Thursday before her birthday hangout, she returned back home after work and found two notes. One was posted at the entrance to her apartment building; meanwhile, one was posted in the elevator.

“I’m the college student from floor seven. Please refrain from any kind of social gatherings that might disturb my studying during this stressful time,” the note read.
Since she was not planning a party, however, she really didn’t give the note much thought.
Then, the following day, she had three of her closest friends over on Friday evening. And they didn’t party at all.
Instead, they just hung out in her apartment and listened to some low music– which she claimed you could barely hear in her own bedroom, let alone on another floor.
Yet, on Saturday morning, she was greeted by another note in the elevator. But that time, she realized the college student had explicitly called her out to the whole building!
“Lady from the seventh floor with this apartment number broke the agreement and had a social gathering on Friday night, completely disrespecting the stressful time I’m going through,” the note began.
“She said she’d be discreet, but this is not enough. I could still hear some laughs and discussions because I have my windows and my balcony door open, and it disrupted my peace and focus,” the note continued.
“Let this be a lesson the next time someone decides to disrespect stressful times like this. You will be called out.”
She was utterly shocked to see her name and apartment number blatantly listed in that note, and honestly, she thought it was ridiculous.
A few of her neighbors agreed and defended her, too, claiming that the college student’s demands were simply unreasonable.
However, a few of her other neighbors did think that she was in the wrong and believed she should have just gone to a bar or restaurant to celebrate her birthday instead of having friends over at her apartment.
So now, after getting conflicting opinions on the situation, she’s been left wondering whether having a gathering at her apartment while one of her neighbors was studying actually made her a jerk or not.
Do you think the college student’s request was reasonable or not? Either way, does it sound like she truly disturbed the student’s studying with her “party?” Should she feel bad for having a couple of friends over on her birthday? What would you have done in this situation?
