Three years ago,I moved into my apartment.It was very nice.Although it was a little more expensive than most apartments,it was worth the price.About 95% of my neighbors were old people,so it was pretty quiet.
In the past year,my apartment has turned 180 degrees.Parents have rented the apartments here for their college-aged kids,which has totally changed the environment of the neighborhood.What used to be an almost"library quiet"place after about 9:00pm,is now very noisy.I am now awakened by the noise at all hours of the night.Sometimes,there are drunken (醉的) college kids who are shouting and crying.Sports cars are always coming and going in the parking lot.The noise from the parking lot easily comes into my apartment.Sometimes,a neighbor's dog barks between 3am and 5am.I used to get a good sleep of eight hours each night.Now I am always awakened at least 3-4 times a night.Most of that usually occurs around the very late hours of 2-4am.For those of us who have to get up early in the morning,that's a real pain.
I used to love weekends,but now I dread them,because I know my apartment will be filled with drunken and loud-speaking college-aged kids on weekends.They may play loud music on weekends.Last night,I was awakened by a girl shouting at a guy in the parking lot repeatedly.I can't stand the living environment any more.And there is no good way to deal with these bad neighbors,so I am ready to move.However,I am now out of work.I can't afford to move into another apartment until I find a job.

1.Life comes in a package.This package includes happiness and sorrow,failure and success,hope and despair.Life is a learning process.Experiences in life teach us new lessons and make us a better person.With each passing day we learn to handle various situations.
Love
Love plays a pivotal role on our life.Love makes you feel wanted.Without love a person could go Hayward(不歸路) and also become cruel and ferocious.In the early stage of our life,our parents are the ones who show us with unconditional love and care.They teach us about what is right and wrong,good and bad.But we always tend to take this for granted.It is only after marriage and having kids that a person understands and becomes sensitive to others' feelings.Kids make a person responsible and mature and help us to understand life better.
Happiness and Sorrow
Materialistic happiness is shortlived,but happiness achieved by bringing a smile on others' face gives a certain level of fulfillment.Peace of mind is the main link to happiness.No mind is happy without peace.We realize the true worth of happiness when we are in jye.ai.Sorrow is basically due to death of a loved one,failure and despair.But these things are temporary and pass away.
Failure and Success
Failure is the path to success.It helps us to touch the sky,teaches us to survive and shows us a specific way.Success brings in money,fame,pride and selfrespect.Here it becomes very important to keep our head on our shoulder.The only way to show our gratitude to God for bestowing success on us is by being humble,modest,courteous and respectful to the less fortunate ones.
Hope and Despair
Hope is what keeps life going.Parents always hope their children will do well.Hope makes us dream.Hope builds in patience.Life teaches us not to despair even in the darkest hour,because after every night there is a day.Nothing remains the same we have only one choice keep moving on in life and be hopeful.
Life teaches us not to regret over yesterday,for it has passed and is beyond our control.Tomorrow is unknown,for it could either be bright or dull.So the only alternative is work hard today,so that we will enjoy a better tomorrow.
