Actually, this blog is null and void. My neighbor moved out earlier last week but I still can't help but wonder what kept her up all of those nights.
Sometimes in the morning, when I have a test and get up at four am, I notice that my neighbor's bedroom light is on. I can see it reflecting on the pine tree outside of our windows. I still see it on when I leave for school closer to five am. I've always wondered, why is her light on? What business does she have being up at four in the morning? So I've thought of some possiblities.
She's a vampire, werewolf or other night time dwelling creature. No, that can't be it; I've seen her out in the daylight and I don't think that the early mornings/late nights correspond to a full moon.
She works at a dairy farm. No, she doesn't seem the type and I've never smelled cow coming off of her. Trust me, I'm pretty sure I could and would smell that from a mile away!
She's entertaining, if you know what I mean. If she is, she's really quiet afterall, we do share a bedroom wall.
She's studying too. Maybe, but this has also occured after classes were out.
She works at odd hours, thus keeping odd awake hours. I don't know. Maybe. I can't ever think of her leaving at a set time each day as if she had a job but not many jobs for college kids have set hours. She never wore a uniform anywhere, that I know of.
She's up all night updating her facebook or myspace page. Maybe.
She's afraid of the dark. Maybe but I'm pretty sure its not every night.
She fell asleep in the dark living room or simply, with the light on. Maybe.
Her two cats think its funny to turn on the light switch. A possiblity after I know Roosevelt likes to jump up at the door hinges and the doorknob.
She's not concerned about the environment and thus is wasting electricity. A possiblity since sometimes her car isn't there when I go take Riley outside. But who really cares, we pay for that electricity in our rent!
Well, I suppose I won't ever really know why Shauna (I'm pretty sure she spells it like that and not with a w.) leave her bedroom light on. I don't plan on asking her ever. After all, do I really need to be getting up at four am to study...or to monitor my neighbor's bedroom light habits? No, not really.
