e nite scene...

It is pretty common amongst HDB dwellers to complain of 'marble dropping' and 'furniture dragging' noises in middle of nite. Some even have very spooky answers. It might apply to my unit since mine is the highest for corner units!

However i have learnt to ignore the unexplainable part.

It is the nite scenes by neighbours that made my nerves unsettled.

Recently there are often loud bangs and quarrels. Then last nite at 1 or 2am, was awoken in shock with plates rumbling! Well, i guess is the one immediately below my unit. Probably the dog or just the parents. The parents are as equally noisy as their kids during day time. One more habit of theirs is to bang and lock the gate extremely hard. Poor door and gate...

This is nerve wreaking. That partly made me give up resting and recuperating. I cant do that in the day time and at night! So guess it be better off to go back to workforce. At least for past 3.5yrs in Serangoon, i din hear or aware of this phenomenon. Home was purely like hotel for me to bathe n sleep say fr 3am to 8.30am.

Now i hope to get back a job that works endlessly into the day, nite and even weekends. Cos many things have already sort of turned meaningless.

My downstairs neighbour came up to complain about us.

He said he could hear my dogs footsteps and the sudden footsteps frighten his CAT.

After he left, I looked at my dogs. 3 of them weigh only about 5kg each. 1 of them is about 18kg. All weigh less than a young kid (ard 30kg).

Since my hb is the fattest at home, maybe the ELEPHANT footsteps neighbour heard is his? Haha.

So ridiculous lor. I dont know to cry or to laugh.
