'Relax, it’s college': Inconsiderate roommate keeps playing loud music at 2:00 AM, student gets even by setting a louder alarm at 6:30 AM

People often romanticize the four years they spent in college. The truth of the matter is that it's a cultural construction to think of that era as the "best four years of your life." That's not to say that college can't be that for someone or that it doesn't have the potential to be an informative time. However, we tend to idealize this chapter and gloss over some of the more difficult phenomena that accompany the collegiate experience.

One aspect of college that can be a beautiful or difficult moment is learning how to coexist with a stranger as your roommate. Some people seek out their roommates in advance and do everything in their power to ensure that the person with whom they will be living freshman year will be a decent and respectful one. Still, unless you truly know the ins and outs of that person before you start the school year, you likely will have to adjust to some unexpected elements of their lifestyle.

In this instance, the author had another student on her floor who became notorious for blasting loud music in the middle of the night. She refused to back down, regardless of how many other students protested for her to quiet down. So, the author decided to give her a taste of her own medicine. This inconsiderate person may have enjoyed staying up late and partying, but she most certainly did not enjoy having to wake up early.
