Situation #1 - I live alone in a 2-bedroom condo and when I arrived from my Bangkok trip 2 weeks ago, I got a note from my neighbor directly below me claiming that I keep him awake watching TV in my bedroom. He cites an instance where I watched TV until 2:30am and it interfered with him "performing (my) regular duties" in his hectic 12-14 hour workday. Having been traveling mostly over the past 3 weeks, I could only remember one night where I stayed up watching Die Hard 4. This neighbor then requested that I cease watching TV in my bedroom since the walls were so thin that he could even hear me "walking about, taking a bath, and flushing the toilet".
Situation #2 - A week ago I had 4 friends come over to hang out til midnight, and since I don't have a cool sound system I was just playing my iTunes at half-volume over my IBM Thinkpad speakers (which everyone knows are quite crappy). The next day the guard stopped me at the gate to say that the same neighbor complained of me playing loud music...and he could hear the scraping of the chairs on the floor.
Now I've tried to listen to my neighbors to check how much I can hear but all I can make out is the hum of the airconditioning, and sometimes the sound of light switches being turned off/on so I figure the walls must not be that thin! I just bought Altec Lansing speakers for my iPod which I feel I can't play and now I can't even watch my pirated DVDs til I fall asleep. So am I noisy or is the neighbor just a freak?
