Especially this bit. I was in hysterics at two am on Friday because I had a midterm in eight hours and my neighbors were having a party.
I'm sorry that happened to you. I can empathize with your frustration - there are so many people at 'SC who don't recognize that some of us actually study and have jobs that require us to be functional early the next day. I know that they're not being purposely malicious ("Hey, let's piss off the nerds next door!"), but ignorance and inconsideration aren't excuses. Although I've definitely been loud and probably kept up my roommate when she wanted to sleep, so I'm not excused by any means.
Drinking to black out particularly scares me. I can see why someone would drink to feel more sociable, but purposely abusing your liver and then not remembering what happens - if you're so troubled that you want to forget whatever shit's going on in your life, you really need help.
