    Im a first year in NUIG, studying nursing so need to attend as many lectures as possible and all of that.
    my flat mate (2nd year) arrived tonight and landed back with her **** buddy at like 3am, woke us up, then put on music. we sat and were polite and spoke to them for half an hour and then said that we have to go to bed because we have a 9oclock lecture.
    They went to bed and had sex, which we heard every disguisting minute of,
    so we went to the front room a while.
    we then knocked on the door and asked them to turn the music down because we had to get up for college in 3 hours and she acted like we were bothering her.
    They are now talking like its broad daylight and i just heard them talking... theyr drinking more. i know for a fact i cant live like this all year and pass my exams... it simply wont happen. and worst of all our bedroom doors dont lock so im going to be pure paranoid now that she and her friends will be in my room ect. when im in college/home for the weekend.
    help? 4 days in and we want to move...
    if we find a place asap do you think we will get our first moiety payment back?

    Ok calm down for a minute. It could be as simple as sitting her down and explaining that her behaviour was totally unacceptable and that in future if she is coming home late, she has to keep the noise to an absolute minimum.

    If you haven't spoken to her about it properly in the light of day, then she obviously doesn't know how much it is bothering you.

    If it has only happened once, it needn't ever happen again. Most likely she was hammered and as I'm sure you know, drunkenness tends to distort everything in people's minds - such as decorum and noise levels. There is a strong chance that she just got carried away and if she is told that it can't happen again then she won't.

    As to the lock on your door - well get one. I'm sure you could ask your landlord to get you a key to your door?

    If none of this works, then you will have to consider moving, or asking her to, which would be perfectly reasonable of you as you would just not be compatible as housemates.
